Worksheet Overview

It is important to vary your writing to add interest.

 

If you find you have repeated words in your writing, you should look for alternatives.

 

To help you do this, you can use a Thesaurus, which lists words which have the same meaning as other words. These are called synonyms.

 

In this activity, we'll be looking at different words that mean the same thing and can enhance the quality of your writing...

 

Peter went to the shop before he went to the park

to

Peter visited the shop before he proceeded to the park.
