I am asking for a classroom set of dictionaries for a number of reasons. My students use these resources quite frequently in the classroom, but I only have two on hand for the entire class to share. We use them in writing lessons, as well as during science and social studies. Dictionaries are extraordinarily helpful in teaching students self-sufficiency when it comes to spelling and simple phonemic awareness. They are also a useful tool when teaching parts of speech.
My students like having quick and easy access to this valuable resource so I would like to make sure dictionaries are available to the entire class. Enabling each student to have access to a dictionary would be a huge asset to our classroom.
