My Project

These dictionary and thesaurus books will help my students grow!

My students are growing learners who are always looking for ways to expand their vocabulary in their writing and every day speech.

In addition, when they come across unknown words in their books, they are curious to learn more and desire an opportunity to look it up in a dictionary. Furthermore, I believe that these dictionaries will help grow my student's problem solving skills and encourage them to improve their skills with word identification. Finding a work in a dictionary can be a tough process, but if they learn to work through it and gain those skills, they will become stronger learners because of it.
