Synonyms Hexagon Puzzle (Yr2,3)

Overview:

A hands-on puzzle activity designed to help younger students match synonyms, with pictures to support understanding. Designed for year 2 and 3 students.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognise and understand synonyms.
• Enhance vocabulary through word association and visual cues.
• Develop problem-solving skills by completing a hands-on puzzle.

How the Activity Works:

Students are provided with hexagonal puzzle pieces, each containing a word and its synonym, supported by a picture to aid understanding (e.g., "present" with "gift," "shut" with "close," "clean" with "tidy"). They arrange the pieces so that each word matches its synonym. The puzzle pieces fit together correctly when all the matches are accurate, forming a complete puzzle. The inclusion of pictures helps younger learners reinforce the meaning of synonyms.
