Guide Word Game

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

In pairs, learners describe and use guide words to locate words in a dictionary. This is a timed activity, where points can be earned by completing the goal first. Tip: Have kids look up weird words in the dictionary, and then come up with some pretend words. The job is to stump the class by making up false definitions to see if classmates can determine which weird word is a real word.
