The Dictionary Project November 2012 - Page 3 of 7

We want to thank you for the dictionaries. I like the dictionaries because they are cool and they are big and fat and also have so many words. It’s hard for me to find words in it. Another part that was fun was on the ride home because we all looked in our cool dictionaries. It was like a dream. I use my dictionary...

Thank you for teaching us about the dictionaries. I really like the part in our dictionaries about sign language. I learned up to the letter E. It is very good for free time. I can also use my dictionary for words that my brother made up to look smart. I can now identify if it is true or not.

There was excitement in the room when Lions Club members came. Third-grade students with older siblings had been asking if they were going to get dictionaries this year, too. On the day, students were squirming in their seats to get their very own dictionary to take home. They immediately looked through it to see what they could find.

Dictionaries are working good for the whole class; a lot of people use them. I remember when my big brother got his, I knew I wanted one. They make school a hundred times more easy.
