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.

Mesita Elementary School Students Receive Dictionaries Thanks to The Dictionary Project.

Students at Mesita Elementary School in El Paso, Texas, recently received their own personal copies of dictionaries through The Dictionary Project. Thanks to the dedication of local sponsors, dozens of third-grade students now have access to a valuable resource to enhance their vocabulary, reading, and lifelong learning skills.


This initiative continues The Dictionary Project’s mission of promoting literacy across the United States, one classroom at a time. Students were thrilled to explore their new dictionaries, opening doors to a world of knowledge and curiosity.
