Specially written for school use

The popular Chambers School Thesaurus has always been an invaluable resource to help students aged 10-14 enrich their vocabulary, giving relevant and up-to-date synonyms and antonyms. It also includes additional hyponym panels showing related words such as terms used in computing or types of animal. Word Workshop panels explore the alternatives to overused words such as 'good' or 'bad' in an involving and accessible way, and Word Study panels provide useful idioms and phrases. All this comes in an easy-to-use A to Z format, with colour picking out the different senses of each word, helping students use their thesaurus more effectively. With its two-colour design and competitive price point, it is an ideal companion volume to Chambers School Dictionary.

Chambers Students' Thesaurus is a brand-new title that offers an extensive and up-to-date selection of synonyms, antonyms and related words, to encourage a more rich use of vocabulary. In addition, over one hundred entries feature special panels examining the context and tone of the synonyms, and help the student to make even more informed word choices. A practical supplement focuses on creative writing, and demonstrates imaginative ways in which students can use varied vocabulary and literary techniques to bring life to the types of writing they are expected to produce.
