This pocket chart not only helps students learn about antonyms and synonyms, but also expands their knowledge of shades and nuances of word meanings. Place a base word card in the center pocket and arrange the printed synonym and antonym cards in order of their intensity from the base word. Each of the 18 base word cards has eight corresponding nuanced vocabulary words (blank cards are included for you to program). From boiling to freezing and all the degrees in between, students will learn how words relate to one another.
