Word Switcheroo Answer Key

In this worksheet, students are given a list of words that each have more than one meaning. Their task is to write two sentences for each word-one sentence for each meaning. This requires students to demonstrate understanding of how context changes a word’s definition and how polysemous words function in real communication. The activity strengthens vocabulary knowledge, sentence writing skills, and flexible thinking about language. Students practice creativity while learning to distinguish and apply different meanings accurately. This task also supports deeper reading comprehension by preparing students to recognize multiple-meaning words in text.
