Glossary

Our fabulous Purple Reading Rockets group have been finding out about the features of non fiction books. One of the things they have been learning about are glossaries. When they were reading the book 'Bikes' they noticed that it didn't have a glossary. They thought that it needed one to make the book easier for other children to understand. So they found the words they thought might be a bit tricky. Then they used a dictionary to find out what those words meant. They also put the words into alphabetical order. After that I typed up the meanings on the computer, and then printed it out. Natalia, Luka, Macy and Elsa then glued them into the back of every Bikes book. There were more than 40 books! Mrs Cronin thought that they had done an amazing job!
