Thank you so much to Mrs. Ziegler's Great Uncle Joe from Oklahoma for coming to visit our classroom and giving us an incredible gift. As part of the "Dictionary Project" each student received his/her own copy of Webster's Dictionary/Thesaurus from the Cross Timbers Rotary Club of Norman, Oklahoma.
Joe spoke about the importance of literacy and reading to learn. He said, "I'm planting a seed. He hopes that they will use this dictionary this year and in the years to come to grow in their learning.
