Synonyms

Today we were working on synonyms for commonly used words.  Here are some synonyms that we discussed:

Another word for children - kids  (We learned that kids also means baby goats!)
Another word for leave - depart
Another word for wet - damp
Another word for jump - leap
Another word for tiny - microscopic

Since we had a bad earthquake today in Christchurch, let's see how many synonyms we can collect that we can use instead of the word 'bad'.  Leave your suggestion in the Comments box below.

    I think I will be very upset, nervous and will be shivering. I feel sorry for all the people in Christchurch.

    Hello Miss B and Room 14. Today I found some synonyms! They are 'carnival' and 'festival'! I was excited and thought that I'd share it with everyone!
