Table of Opposites

Okay kiddo, so have you ever played a game where you match pairs of things that are the same, like matching two socks or two puzzle pieces that fit together?

Well, a table of opposites is kind of like that game but instead of matching things that are the same, we’re matching things that are different!

So for example, we might have a list of words like hot and cold, tall and short, big and small. We can put these words in a table with two columns and write each opposite in a different column.

That way, we can see all the words that have an opposite word right next to it. It’s like having a map to help us figure out which words are opposites of each other.

This can be really helpful when we are trying to learn new words or when we want to come up with creative ideas. We can use the table of opposites to think of words that are related to each other, but mean the opposite thing.

So, the next time you play that matching game, remember that there's a table of opposites that can help you find pairs of things that are completely opposite of each other! Cool, huh?
