How quick can you find these words? pyramid tourist apple

How is the Dictionary organised? Alphabetically We can split the dictionary into quartiles. What do you think this means? Halfway through the dictionary is M The first quartile is A – E The second is F – L The third is M - S The final quartile is T - Z

Can you find the quartiles? Hold your dictionary by the spine Let it fall open in the middle, should be around M Then halve each side so you should have fingers in F, M and T. a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t y v w x y z

Now its your turn… Dictionary Work WALT use a dictionary to sort words into alphabetical order. Find the words on your list in your dictionary, write them in your books in alphabetical order with the definition for each word.
