The Rotary Club of Blanco County presented personal dictionaries to each of the 3rd graders of Blanco Elementary School on August 16. The dictionaries not only contain words and definitions, but also encyclopedia-type information that the students may use as a source for writing various papers or composing stories.
Included are biographies of all American Presidents, Countries and State facts and figures, and even common American Sign Language. We’ve decided that the dictionary should be identified as a DICTIONARY+. The nearly 70 students who received the dictionary+ were excited and immediately began opening the books and paging through them. The Club’s purchase and presentation of the dictionaries+ is one example of living up to our Service Above Self motto.
