I have created this project to replace the class set of dictionaries that was ruined when our classroom flooded during Hurricane Harvey. Recently, students who will be taking the 5th Grade STAAR Reading test in April were given the opportunity to use dictionaries when taking the test. This provides a level of assistance for optimum success. However, my students don't have dictionaries.
Games are one of the best tools to increase student engagement. Scrabble is a game that students will be able to play to increase their vocabulary. They will be able to practice using the dictionaries to help them increase their scores when playing.
