Summary: Distribution of dictionaries to 3rd grade students in the Chandler Unified School District
his project is a repeat of the very successful dictionary project that we have done for years and years. We provide dictionaries to 3rd grade students throughout the Chandler Unified School District. This project gets Rotarians involved in the schools with the Principals, teachers and students. Typically about 40 Rotary members participate and make presentations at the schools to the students in a 3rd grade assembly. There is a script that we use that introduces the students to the dictionary and it is an ongoing tool for the teachers to use throughout the school year. Unfortunately for some of the students it is the first book that anyone has given them. In the past CUSD and a couple of other Rotary Clubs have helped with the funding of this project. Currently unsure of the total dollar amount that will be spent on this project this year but like most things right now it will probably cost more that the $12000+ that was spent last year.
