SYNONYMS AND ANTONYMS

Then rewrite the sentence, first using a synonym and then using an antonym for this word. 

Each participant should suggest a different synonym and antonym.

Answer:

The business proposal was a success due to your cognizance.
The business proposal was a success due to your knowledge.
The business proposal was not a success due to your ignorance.

He is cognizant of the intitution's policies and his responsibilities as a loyal employee.
He is knowledgeable of the institution's policies and procedures manual and his duties as a responsible employee.
Obviously, he is ignorant of the company's policies and procedures manual, that is why he behaves the way he does.

Well done, Daryl.

Your sentences were very good, too, Lara. But each student was asked to suggest a different synonym and antonym.
