Dear Gentle People,

The dictionary you gave me is great! I have used it lots of time I don’t even remember. The best thing about it is that it is very big. Thank you for giving me such a wonderful gift.

Sincerely, Rocio - Lazear Elementary


Letters July 2002

(Some "Letters from the Children" were handwritten; grammar and subject material translated as received)

Dear Sir:

I want to thank you for the new free dictionary. I get to locate new vocabulary words. It has most words a third grader might need. I also get to take it home and back to school without having trouble carrying it because it is paperback. Also it is a small size. It helps me learn 3rd standards for Pact tests. It even helps us learn words and definitions. If we go and get a book and read a word that we don't know we can look in our new dictionaries and find out what it means. You can lean guide words, entry words, definitions used in context, parts of speech, and syllables. We appreciate what you did for us. Thank again.

Sincerely,

Dezni, Pine Street Elementary School, Spartanburg, SC


Dear Sir;

Thank you for the dictionary. With the help of your dictionary I can locate new vocabulary. With big dictionaries there is no way I could fit everything in my desk. Your dictionary lets me fit everything in my desk. I can carry it to school and home without killing my back. I learn new vocabulary and 3rd grade standards with this dictionary. When I read I might come to a word I don't know. I'll look it up in this dictionary. This dictionary helps me so much, and to think that it's free! The dictionary teaches me guide words, definitions, entry words, parts of speech, and syllables. Soon I can know vocabulary that is really hard. The dictionary helps me learn. Thank you for the dictionary.

Sincerely,

Elise, Pine Street Elementary School, Spartanburg, SC


Dear Sir;

Thank you for the dictionaries that gave us. What I like about them is that they have soft backs and are easy to carry home. It helps us learn 3rd grade standards for the pact test. It helps us learn new definitions. It has most words a third grader would use. I like to read it. I like to open to learn new words and meanings. It's very useful.

Sincerely,

Cashyna, Pine Street Elementary School, Spartanburg, SC


Dear Sir:
I want to thank you for the Webster's Dictionary. They are very small. I can take it anywhere. It is paper back so it is flimsy. They are not like the big heavy dictionaries we have in our classroom. I keep my dictionary on my desk everyday. They are so handy. When I'm reading my library book, sometimes I don't understand a word. I just look it up in the dictionary. Most of those words are in there. It works great for me. I can look up the words just like that. I am so glad you sent us these dictionaries. I thank you again for all your hard work to get us dictionaries.

Sincerely,

Brandon, Pine Street Elementary School, Spartanburg, SC


Dear Sir:

I want to thank you so much for the dictionary. I love it so much. I have already used it for looking up words, is was very fun with my new dictionary. They are portable which allows me to take it almost anywhere. They help me learn the third grade standards because of the entry words and guide words. They make my back feel good. If I had a big dictionary it would pull me down. Thank you so much for the dictionary.

Sincerely,

Ashton, Pine Street Elementary School, Spartanburg, SC

I want to thank you for the dictionary. They help us learn our third grade standards for PACT Test such as entry words, guide words, definition used in context, syllables, and parts of speech. The dictionaries are also useful because they are portable, small, and paperback. Also if kids don't have dictionaries at home they can bring these home. They also help us when we are reading and we come to a word we don't understand we can look right there. Thanks again for these wonderful dictionaries.
