Description
Publisher's Description of Dictionary Skills Grades 1-3
What comes next after the letter g? Put these letters in ABC order – p d i.
As children move through the 44 lessons in this book, they progress from letter ordering to word order, and on to activities designed to build comfort and use of a dictionary.
Once a basic familiarity with locating words is achieved, students are ready to use what they find. Activities follow-on parts of speech and use of word meanings. The final exercises touch on multiple meanings - when the same word has two definitions in the dictionary.
Category Description for Dictionary Skills
A dictionary can be a very useful tool, and these workbooks provide fun exercises and activities that will develop the skills necessary to use one most effectively. Each book requires a dictionary to complete the majority of the exercises. The first book works on alphabetical order, where students simply write the next letter in a series or connect the letters to draw a picture. Then, students use a dictionary to complete such exercises as listing what page number certain words are on, filling in definitions of words, and using the dictionary to see if a word is an adjective, verb, or noun. The second book is a little more intense and includes a pre/post test and an answer key. Students complete exercises such as putting entry words in alphabetical order, writing definitions of words, looking up the difference between homonyms, and dividing words into syllables with accent marks. Each book has an easy-to-use format with fun black and white drawings interspersed. Workbooks are reproducible; answers provided. ~ Rachel S.

Why did you choose this?
We needed to strengthing our research skills and there's no better way to begin than with the dictionary.
I heard good things about it when teaching dictionary skills.
I think that it will work well to help my second grader with dictionary skills. From the preview, it seems like a great workbook that will not frustrate her.
