Word Metamorphosis

Word Formation #13

Worksheet Description

The “Word Formation” worksheet is a vocabulary-building activity where students are required to convert nouns into their corresponding adjectives, and verbs into the nouns that are associated with them. The worksheet is divided into two sections; the first section provides a list of nouns such as “friend,” “music,” and “science,” and students must write the adjective form of these nouns. The second section lists nouns like “invitation” and “defense,” and students must write the verb that relates to these nouns. The aim is to fill in the blanks with the correct form of each word, practicing the morphological transformation of words.

The worksheet’s purpose is to enhance students’ understanding of word classes and the formation of different word types from a given base word. It teaches them how to derive adjectives from nouns, emphasizing the morphological changes that occur in this process. For the second section, it challenges students to think about actions associated with the given nouns and form the corresponding verbs. This exercise helps in reinforcing vocabulary knowledge, improving word usage skills, and expanding students’ ability to express various concepts through different parts of speech.
