Grade 11 Definitions

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a vocabulary exercise targeted at 11th-grade students, where they must match definitions to the correct words. A list of complex words is provided at the top of the page, and each subsequent numbered line contains a definition. Students must read the definition and then write the corresponding word from the list on the line next to it. The exercise tests both the students’ understanding of the word meanings and their ability to spell the words correctly.

The aim of this worksheet is to improve the students’ vocabulary and spelling of advanced English words. It helps in reinforcing their knowledge of word definitions and usage in context. The worksheet also enhances critical thinking skills as students must discern which word fits each definition. Furthermore, it encourages students to engage with more sophisticated language, preparing them for the advanced literacy required in higher education and professional environments. Match all of the words in the box to their sentence-based definitions.  You will use the following words: aphorism, choleric, epitome, innuendoes, interlocutor, kinesiology, kitschy, lyceum, mandibular, and pernicious.
