This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Language is the most important tool we can use to change the world.
Dictionaries celebrate words in all forms and provide students with, not just the meaning of words or phrases, but the possible meanings of a word in different contexts, correct pronunciations and spelling of words, and other resourceful information that can facilitate learning.
Students need precise language when expressing themselves in all forms and printed dictionaries give them the gift of words. These words have been known to change the world.
