Slap the synonym

 
If you or your kiddos love words like I do, run to the library and check out "The Boy Who Loved Words" by Roni Schotter and Giselle Potter. Absolutely adorable!
 
After a discussion about word choice, we learned the definition of synonym and played a hands-on word game: Slap the Synonym.
 
 
Much like Slap Jack, I had all the word cards in a pile. We'd announce the word we were working with, then flip over one card at a time. Then ... slap the synonym! It was a hit. :)
