Dictionary Guide Words Worksheet. This helpful worksheet teaches kids best practices for looking up unfamiliar words using the dictionary guide words. Students circle the letter of correct pair of guide words for each word.
Students need to look up the words and find the guide words for each page. Guide words are the first and last words defined on that page. A writer's choice of words will often leave the audience being able to gauge their level of grammar mastery.
These dictionary skills activities and printables, including guide words, dictionary searches, alphabetical order, and multiple meanings will help students master this reading skill.
They then use what they have learned to match dictionary words with the correct guide words.
Students circle the letter of correct pair of guide words for each word. In addition to this worksheet I produced some cards with random words they knew and some guide words from a dictionary. Tell whether each word would be found on the dictionary page above.
