Can you think of one?? I haven’t been able to. Even a search at Synonym.com brought back the result:

Sorry, I could not find synonyms for ’synonym’

I found some websites that deal with Synonyms though:

• Teacher’s Clubhouse – Grammar Skills
• A lesson on synonyms for Kindergarten
• EdHelper worksheets on Synonyms

I did also find the humourous t-shirts too, if you’re that way inclined. They’re available over at Zazzle.com

7. Records your school’s address on competition forms.
8. Think that staff meetings are the best fun you’ve had all week.
9. Cry with joy when your back-to-back photocopying comes out the right way up.

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

“Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, ‘There’s Jennifer; she’s a lawyer,’ or ‘That’s Michael; he’s a doctor.’”

A small voice at the back of the room rang out, “And there’s the teacher; she’s dead.”

Mrs. White asked her 4th grade class if they thought they were stupid and, if so, to please stand.

Little Jimmy stood up, alone.

Mrs. White said, “Jimmy, do you really think you’re stupid?”

“No,” Jimmy said. “But I didn’t want you standing up there alone.”
