Synonyms Worksheets - Year 1 & 2

Checking your access...

Are you looking for simple, engaging worksheets to help build an understanding of synonyms?

These four differentiated worksheets give practice identifying and using synonyms (words with the same or similar meanings) in a few different ways:

  • matching words to their synonyms

  • colouring words that mean the same as the key words

  • writing a synonym to replace the underlined word in a sentence

  • crossing out the word that is not a synonym

The matching and colouring tasks give extra scaffolding, while the sentence task lets learners come up with their own synonyms. Possible answers are included for quick marking.

What’s included:

  • 4 differentiated synonym worksheets:

    • Synonym Match

    • Colour the Synonyms

    • Synonym Switch

    • Odd One Out
