In this lesson you will work on a vocabulary tree. A vocabulary tree is a tool to use when you learn new words. There are many different kinds, but the one you will be working on today is full of words from Uncle Jed's Barbershop. I have given you a vocab word from the story, and it is your job to come up with three synonyms for each words.
You will need a book full of synonyms to help you, and that kind of book is called a thesaurus. It has nothing else in it except synonyms. There is one for you to use in Word, or you could use the one at this link: http://www.wordsmyth.net/
You will need to download the document at the link under the vocabulary tree in order to fill it out.
