Chances are your students use the dictionary at least once every week, but do you think anyone has ever really taught them how? Do they know what it really means to "find the best definition"? Do they really understand the pronunciation key, the code indicating homographs, and so on? Merriam-Webster's How to Use a Dictionary / How to Use a Thesaurus is a wonderful little book with lessons and activities guaranteed to make your students better independent learners - at least when it comes to word study. And you might learn a fascinating tidbit or two yourself!
