This new edition of the Oxford Primary Thesaurus is bursting with thousands of synonyms to enrich children's writing. Entries are simple and clear, and include example sentences from children's favourite authors which model how to use different words in context. Alphabet tabs on every page make navigation very easy. Extra writing support is given for overused words such as nice and good, topic vocabulary at words such as animal or castle, and writing tips at words such as food, weather and clothes suggest ways to create colourful descriptions. Finding new and alternative words is easy, quick and fun. The Oxford Primary Thesaurus is an invaluable reference tool for pupils to use to edit and improve their writing. An ideal companion to the new updated edition of the Oxford Primary Dictionary. Go online at www.oxfordschooldictionaries.com for the accompanying free downloadable activities.
