Product Description |
|
Organized by vowel sounds and final syllables, this illustrated rhyming dictionary uses its own easy-to-use, accurate pronunciation system. The student writer looks up the ending sound of a word, which is listed alphabetically, and finds a list of matching rhymes ranging from the everyday to the extraordinary to modern slang. The list includes appropriate words with the same ending sound, regardless of the spelling. An introduction includes the basics of listening for rhyme, with emphasis on sounds, stressed syllables, and different spellings of same sounds. |

Americancivilwar.com Review |
|
An easy-to-use rhyming dictionary for kids. Large typeface, and a good selection of very playful words. And the sturdy library binding makes it ideal for classroom or backseat rhyming games during long trips. |

Great value |
|
This book is super easy to use. There is an index of popular words in the back that helps you find the rhyming vowel. The way this book is organized is the best I've seen in a rhyming dictionary. Children will enjoy their poetry assignments when they have the tools for the job. This book is an excellent tool for poetry and other creative writing assignments. Children in upper elementary and middle school would be able to use this book independenty. Younger elementary children would need assistance. This book is designed for children but adults may enjoy is's simplicity and ease of use as well. |

Middle School Teacher's Rhyming Dictionary of choice |
|
This is a fantastic rhyming dictionary, great for middle school aged students. The organization of the dictionary helps students find their word choices quickly. I purchased five of these as a classroom set, and will purchase more soon to make sure that every student has one under their desk. Even the most stubborn "non writer" has fun using this resource to write poetry! |

Excellent resource for the classroom or home |
|
I love this book. It makes writing poetry so much more fun! Students argue over the books; I have about twenty for thirty students. You need to have these books in the English classroom for your poetry unit, and it is fun to have them throughout the year. If you are looking for a gift for an English or language arts teacher, this would be a great gift. |
