I need Spanish-English dictionaries for my classroom. Students are quick to jump to websites and have whole sentences translated for them. They often misuse online dictionaries for help on projects and other assignments. In doing this, they end up trying to use grammar they have never learned and writing sentences that don't even make sense.
They need to use their own knowledge of grammar to create original sentences in Spanish. A dictionary will allow them to find needed words and require them to think about the structure of their sentence. They can use their brain to create, instead of the internet doing it for them!
