Our first Grade 3 Dictionary project got off to a great start we delivered dictionaries to Bridgeview and Forsythe Road schools on Thursday. The kids were really thrilled to get their own personal dictionary. The schools and the Grade 3 teachers were very welcoming and helped us with the distribution and introduction of the use of a Dictionary. Special thanks to Duane Buchanan who assisted at Bridgeview. and John Edwards who helped out at Forsythe Road. Friday we delivered to Old Yale Road and K.B.Woodwood ,Thanks to Ajay Caleb and John Riley who assisted at Old Yale Road and Deane Gurney,John Campbell and Judy Holland who helped out at KB Woodwood. We have one school left  to deliver (James Ardiel -Next wednesday) and we will have presented 237 dictionaries to students in Grade 3 at 5 inner city schools.The feedback from the kids and teachers has been tremendous we hit a home run with this one.
