Conclusion

Congratulations! You have proven that you are indeed a top-notch detective!

Don't forget to turn in your casefile (worksheets). I want to see the great work you accomplished!

Thanks for your help!

Note: Knowing about homonyms, synonyms, and antonyms should help you in your writing. Be aware of these words and make sure you are using the correct word at the correct time. Challenge yourself to use your knowledge of synonyms to create writing with stronger word choice!   

P.S. Since you did such great detective work today, I thought you might like some more links to play with this concept on your own.          

Enjoy!
