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.

Dalton Rotary gives learning tools to students

 Last Thursday, the Dalton Rotary Club continued their annual effort to support learning at the elementary school by passing out dictionaries to all Dalton third-grade students, and a few minutes later the older fifth-grade students each received a thesaurus.
Rotarians Don Wycoff and son Chad Wycoff also had the honor of presenting the books to family members. Chad gave a dictionary to his son Andrew, and Don gave a dictionary to his grandson Tyler.
