Classroom Set of Dictionaries

My students need 24 children's dictionaries.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I have a group of very bright second graders. They are well above grade level and need to be challenged. I will be able to do this with more resources.

The students have been very eager to learn how to use dictionaries. However, because of limited funds I am not able to buy enough for the whole class.

If my class each had their own dictionary to use we could use them whole group and my students could learn how to properly use a dictionary. They could also use it in their writing to spell words correctly.

Your help will make it possible for me to challenge my students and give them the skills necessary for success.
