Beloved Dictionary Donations

Ask any 3rd grader in our district, how awesome is your dictionary from Kiwanis?

Each year, the Snoqualmie Valley Kiwanis organization supports its “Words for Thirds” tradition by purchasing a dictionary for every 3rd grader in our school district.  Students eagerly explore its pages and are thrilled when they learn they get to keep their copy. Our teachers also welcome this generous donation, designing lessons to hone their students’ skills for using this fundamental resource.

Enjoy a slideshow below of students receiving these prized possessions from Kiwanis and learning some of the interesting facts found on its pages.

Thank you again, Kiwanis, for your ongoing support of Snoqualmie Valley children!
