Why make a personal dictionary?
There are a number of reasons to have your students make their own personal math dictionary.
VariationsJust remember there is no certain way to create your personal dictionaries, each teacher must decide what is best going to meet the students needs. Some teachers use them as learning tools where the vocabulary word gets written on the board for the whole class to learn from. Other teachers allow there students to use them as reference during testing. Each teacher can decide how to use their dictionaries (Miller & Veatch, 2013, p.33).
