Guide Words in a Dictionary

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Second and third graders match the five pairs of guide words to the words in a list that should appear on the same page in a dictionary. They look at a second set of five pairs of guide words and circle the word (from three choices) that would not appear on a dictionary page with those guide words. Great alphabetizing practice!
