Our Rotary has been distributing dictionaries to 3rd graders for about 6 years. It is a wonderful project. With the emphasis on using technology, kids don’t use books as much as in the past. They love the books. We enjoy highlighting some of the special pages in the book.

Dear Aetna Grange Members: I would like to thank you for your generous donation of dictionaries to our third grade students. They really love having their own dictionaries and they will be very valuable to our students. Thank you for helping our students to succeed. Your generosity is sincerely appreciated. Sincerely, Jay LeFevre Principal

It is a great project. The dictionaries are really appreciated by the students. It is a great PR project.

Dear Norton Grange, Thank you for my dictionary. I am very thankful for my dictionary because I love to read, but sometimes I don’t really understand the meaning of a word, and my dictionary helps me. I like to read dictionaries, but a multiplication table? You guys are awesome! Thanks again! Sincerely, Clayton (P. S. Where did you get the dictionaries?)

The joy and smiles on the children’s faces say more than 1,000 words.

Dear Dictionary Project, Thank you for the wonderful dictionary. Thank-you for helping me figure-out for how to spell hard words. You really did alot for me. Now I don’t need to worry about hard words that I don’t understand how to spell. I am so grateful that this dictionary tells you about river, planets, presidents and all. Thank-you again.
