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.

Dear Ms. Anderson,
I really do appreciate you giving the class our own dictionaries to help us expand our vocabulary, to use and know more words in the future. I will keep my dictionaries in a safe place, so that I can have one in handy. Thank you so much Ms. Anderson!
Sincerely,
Danielle
