OPPOSITES

They are not the same, they are different…

In our English class in Primary 2, we are learning about opposite words.

Opposite words also known as antonyms, are a pair of words with contrasting meanings. Learning antonyms helps us understand words better and speak more clearly!

Examples of Opposite words:

Big – Small

Fast – Slow

Happy – Sad

Hot – Cold

Day – Night

Here you have more examples as well as our favourite song about opposites!

Here are also some sentences we created in class:

• The elephant is big, but the ant is small.
• The rabbit is fast, but the turtle is slow.
• I feel happy when I play, but I feel sad when it rains.
• The soup is hot, but the ice cream is cold.
• We play during the day, but we sleep at night.

Continue practising and finding out more opposite words!

See you tomorrow Big Little kids!
