Using a dictionary
Good morning! We have been using dictionaries in class to help us with our spellings. In this lesson we will look at them even more to understand how we can get really good at using them!
A dictionary is a list of words or phrases and their definitions (what they mean).
Dictionaries are arranged in alphabetical order.
They help you to spell or understand any new words, so are a fantastic tool to use to improve your English skills.
Before we look at dictionaries in more detail, let’s revise what alphabetical order means.
