Dear Friends, I would like to tell you how much the children enjoyed and used their dictionaries this year! They truly enjoyed them and were amazed when they were able to take them home with them at the end of the school year. I think the children used them more for all of the wonderful information included in the back of the books more... Read More

 I am a 3rd grade teacher at Elwood CCSD #203 in Elwood, Illinois.  Our PTO has purchased dictionaries for the last 2 years, and I cannot tell you how much of a difference it has made to our 3rd graders.  They love their dictionaries and use them all the time. They have word races, sit and read them just for fun, and they all... Read More

 I really like the dictionaries we got through your organization with the Pioneers. There were so many words. The dictionaries in our classrooms don’t have most of the words we need to look up. We also used the charts and maps at the back of the book. Also, the students saw this as a prized possession – the first dictionary most ever had.

 Whoever signed us up for those dictionaries, tell them “Thanks” with all my heart! They came just when we are learning about that crazy “schwa” sound & ohhhhh, did they love looking up the schwa sound & syllables in “Their” dictionary! It wouldn’t have been any fun to look all that up in those old classroom dictionaries! This was the best year for teaching... Read More

I want to compliment the publisher, The Dictionary Project, for compiling such an excellent version... Read More

 Dear Mrs. Collier, Thank you for once again coming to the third grade and distributing your amazing dictionaries to the students.

The students cannot get enough time to digest everything; fortunately, they will have more than just this year to satisfy their hunger for absorbing its contents. Hopefully, each student will appreciate... Read More

You have no idea how much the dictionaries have meant to these children. For many, it is the only book they own. Thanks again, Mrs. Freese Harold Keller Elementary Metairie, LA

 Orangefield Elementary 3rd grade students received your gift of words. We appreciate your generosity very much. Our students were so excited. Some are carrying them with them every day. We have been teaching dictionary skills all year. It took on a new meaning when they received their own dictionary to use. Thanks, Barbara Frazier Third grade teachers Orangefield Elementary

 Dear Elks Lodge members, My students and I greatly appreciate the dictionaries you donated to our third grade class at Gale Elementary School. As a teacher I love getting free things for our classroom that I might not have been able to purchase otherwise. The students love the idea of the dictionaries belonging to them and not to the school. They take great ownership... Read More
