Students have been learning about synonyms and antonyms. The teacher models how to create a semantic map of a word’s synonyms and antonyms using the words “big” and “little”. Then students work with a partner to semantic map using the words “hot” and “cold”. This type of activity benefits students’ vocabulary development most directly by:
Group of answer choices
enhancing their ability to read and understand multisyllabic words
facilitating their ability to use words in context
helping them analyze morphemes in the word to determine word meaning
promoting their understanding of the relationships between words.
