The kids use them frequently and are getting better and better at finding the words they are looking for. \r\n\r\nWhat I think is most beneficial about the dictionaries is that they really promote independence. Instead of waiting for a teacher, kids can find the words they need themselves. \r\n\r\nAnother benefit to the dictionaries is that they reinforce the idea of a base word. For example, a student looking for the word \"walked\" will only find \"walk.\" Then they need to use their other spelling skills to add the suffix. \r\n\r\nThese dictionaries are an essential part of our spelling work, which also includes learning common patterns and rules.
