Dictionary Usage Practice- Dictionary Races/Secondary ELA

Do you need to remind your students that they have a valuable resource available to them? The dictionary! They can use it during testing, and some need to be reminded of just how to use it. This power point asks over 50 questions in 3 ways:

1. I give the guide words and a definition. You have to scan until you can give the word that matches the definition.

2. I give the word and you give the definition.

3. I ask a question about the word - reading the definition is NOT the answer, but will help answer the question.

Use it as a fun way to break up your test prep and get the kids competing!
