The resource encourages discussion about word choice and helps children understand how language can be adapted for different purposes and audiences. These bookmarks can be used during writing lessons, vocabulary work, or guided reading. They are perfect as a quick reference tool to support independent writing and improve word selection. This resource helps pupils build confidence in using ambitious vocabulary and develop a deeper understanding of how synonyms can subtly change meaning.
