The Dictionary Project

YEAR: Ongoing

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The goal of The Dictionary Project is to assist all students in becoming good writers, active readers, creative thinkers, and resourceful learners by providing them with their own personal dictionary. The dictionaries are a gift to each student to use at school and at home for years to come. Educators see third grade as the dividing line between learning to read and reading to learn.

 

IMPACT STATEMENT

As a proud donor and sponsor of this program Chatham Rotary Club members pay for and give dictionaries to children in the third grade at all the elementary schools in Pittsylvania County each year.
