Common misconception
Pupils will need further explanation on some of the more abstract word pairs. For example, a 'regretful tone' or a 'disheartened silence'.
For each word pair that is more abstract, ask the pupils why something might be described in that way and put the word pair in a sentence to model to the pupils how to use it correctly.
