A dictionary teaches a child how to approach a problem and use critical thinking skills by sounding out the word and finding it in the dictionary. This simple task gives them a feeling of self-confidence and satisfaction that they cannot get online.

Dear Ms. French, Thank you for the dictionary that was very kind. We will be using the dictionaries for multiple-meaning words and our vocabulary words. We will be using them a lot. We will be using them for next year too. I really appreciate our dictionaries. Sincerely, Jessica
