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 3rd year to supply dictionaries to all the 3rd grade students in Peoria District 150. The teachers can’t say enough about the project and the positive impact the dictionaries have on their classroom activities.
