 Volunteers
went to 8 different Lincoln Unified Elementary Schools 3rd grade classes
at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 19, 2008. The Rotarians distributed
over 630 dictionaries to the
surprised children. The children wrote their names in the books, as they
were theirs to keep. They immediately began leafing through the pages
looking up words. Pages in the dictionaries that seemed most interesting
were a list with biographies of the presidents and the
 international
symbols for signing for the deaf. North Stockton Rotarians taking part
are listed below, with the school sites, number of students that
recieved books and their principles name.

Dear Judy and North
Stockton Rotary:
Our teachers and students are THRILLED with their dictionaries! I have
had several requests for the correct name and address to use for
addressing thank you notes. I'm assuming that would be you, Judy, but
would you let me know?
Thank you for this wonderful gift to our students. Third graders count
the words they read and the words they know. Your gift of a personal
dictionary for each student couldn't have been more perfect.
Thanks!
Lisa Walker
Secretary to
the Superintendent
Lincoln Unified School District
