Our research focuses on the met lexicographic study of primary school dictionaries, as being not only one of the educational tools but also a complement to the school curriculum. The study focuses on the methods of determining the general lexical meaning of words as well as the classification of entries in the dictionary and its design so that it responds - on the one hand - to the linguistic and intellectual abilities and needs of the school child in the primary cycle and on the other hand in scientific and linguistic development. We also deal, in this research, with the characteristics and methodology which will make it possible to determine the possible variants of dictionary design adequate to the lexical material taught in this fundamental stage.
