Any teacher who has seen words like “nice” and “good” one too many times in student writing can vouch for the importance of teaching shades of meaning. When kids have the understanding that synonyms can be closely related and differ in intensity, it helps them make stronger word choices in their writing. As if that isn't enough of a bonus already, it’s a big ticket to improvement in reading comprehension and vocabulary development too.
