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.

This is our first time to do this project. I (as ER) am very excited. I believe the more we do in our community to let people know what the Elks do is great. Reaching children and helping them with their education is what the Elks is all about.
