Here is how we used this board last year:
Step One: We had our students read an informational text about Lewis and Clark.
Step Two: Each student chose from the story a word he/she thought would have multiple synonyms.
Step Three: Each student made a synonym roll, starting the roll with the word he/she had selected from the text and continuing with synonyms from the thesaurus.
Step Four: We chose our favorite synonym rolls and used them to create a bulletin board.
