Dictionary Project

Since 2010, when we began our Dictionary Project, the members of our Kiwanis Club of Waynesville have presented 7,680 dictionaries to public and private school third grade students in Haywood County, North Carolina. Members personally present the books, lead the students through an overview of the book and do a brief exercise. Of the many projects Kiwanis does for Haywood’s children, this is a favorite of our members. The students are always excited and appreciative to receive something that they can continue to keep and use beyond the third grade.
