Introduction
(2 minutes)
- Ask students to share what they know about the word dictionary. Confirm or paraphrase student answers, as needed.
- Share a student-friendly language objective by reading it aloud. For example, "I can say the meaning of words in a sentence." Have learners repeat it. Explain that today's lesson will be about how we can learn about what words mean and their parts of speech, so that we can use them correctly in our speaking and writing.
