Teaching children how to use a dictionary will improve reading and writing, and help them become independent learners. The Jolly Dictionary complements the Jolly Grammar books and is designed to teach children how to look up and understand words they don’t know. Over 6,000 age-appropriate words are included. The words used in the definitions have been carefully selected so that children find them easy to read and understand. In addition, the Jolly Dictionary is beautifully illustrated throughout, often using the Jolly Phonics characters to help clarify examples. 300 pages.
