Dictionaries

Every year Rotary Club gives every third grader a dictionary. It's a very exciting time of year, especially here in Room 9 because they generously gave the 2nd graders one too!  This morning we spent some of our reading time exploring all that a dictionary can teach us.  Here is what we found.

 Then of course it was time to write thank you notes and share all the things we now know we can learn from a dictionary.

And now I just gave them a choice between reading and exploring some more for the last 20 minutes before lunch.  Usually reading wins.  Now I can't seem to get them to put the dictionaries down!!!
Thanks so much Rotary!
