Synopsis

This is a major new primary school thesaurus for ages 8 and over. For the first time we have a companion to The Oxford Primary School Dictionasry (new 1998 edition). They both share the same headword base. This thesaurus is suitable for primary school children who are developing independent
writing skills and it is also perfect for extended group project work. Children who are familiar with The Oxford Junior Thesaurus can now progress to The Oxford Primary School Thesaurus and at secondary level continue with The Oxford School Thesaurus.

Usage markers: draw attention to any difficulties in using words
