Definition: To give structure to; to arrange.

Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! You’ve got a good start with that dictionary definition – “to give structure to; to arrange.” But what does that really mean? Let's break it down. “Structured” is all about order and planning, you see. It means taking something messy and making it neat and tidy for you and me! Think of it like this: A building with blueprints: The plans are the structure – they tell everyone exactly where everything goes. A puzzle box: You need to follow the instructions, arrange the pieces in a certain way, to unlock its secret. Your morning routine: Do you wake up, brush your teeth, eat breakfast - that’s a structured start to your day! It's about having a plan, a system, or a framework. It can be for things big like a school project or small like organizing your desk. So, “structured” means arranging things in a specific way, with a clear pattern and often, with rules to follow. Does that make sense? Now, who can give me an example of something we might structure at school? Don't be shy!
