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.

We have been participating in the project for approximately 5 years. This is a terrific program with the best being delivering the dictionaries and seeing the smiles and excitement of the students as they receive their own personal dictionary. We receive letters back from each student sharing how they are using the dictionary and what their favorite parts are.
