What this worksheet teaches

• Choose the right word for a sentence when two options look similar.
• Use singular and plural forms of new words correctly, including the -es endings.
• Match new words to their meanings and use each one in a sentence of your own.
• Identify simple synonyms and antonyms - big and large, hot and cold.

How to use this worksheet

Antonyms are easier than synonyms at Grade 2, because opposites feel obvious while 'nearly the same' does not. Do the antonym rows first to build momentum, then work on synonyms with a pair of examples in front of you.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. I can ___ my shoes.
2. The dog will ___ on the rug.

Frequently asked questions

How many new words should we tackle in one sitting?

Five to eight is plenty at Grade 2. Recall drops sharply beyond that, so a shorter list revisited twice beats a long list done once.

Should we use a dictionary?

A children's picture dictionary is helpful, but try guessing from the sentence first - that guessing skill is one of the objectives here.

My child mixes up synonyms and antonyms. Any tip?

Anchor the words themselves: antonym starts with 'anti', which means against, so it is the opposite. Most children stop swapping them once that link sticks.
