Antonyms Polygon Puzzle
A puzzle using antonyms.
Use this teaching resource when working with antonyms.
Students are required to cut the polygons out. They are jumbled up, so they will need to put the puzzle back together by looking at the words and then placing the corresponding antonym next to it.
Students can stick the puzzle back together in their books.
An answer sheet is also provided.
