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 Dictionary Project,
I am writing to thank you for giving me a dictionary. It helps me look for new words. Tonight I am using it for my homework. I use it for looking up good words. I thank you once again.
Sincerely,
Andrew
