On November 21st, the school held a library hour, "November 22nd - Encyclopedia and Dictionary Day," in which elementary school students participated. The event was lively and engaging, featuring dance routines, poems, riddles, and quizzes.

The students reiterated: 

1) that dictionaries play a crucial role:

  • they act as gathering places and are true treasure troves of information;
  • they help students learn and acquire new knowledge, understand and interpret, develop and explore, translate and find synonyms, and discover the origins of words.

2) that encyclopedias help students:

  • provide general information: they are an excellent first step to gaining a general understanding of a topicp;
  • aid in research: they contain links to other sources for deeper study;
  • collect and systematize knowledge: they collect and organize information from various fields, making it accessible to a wide range of readers;
  • they help verify facts: they serve as a quick source for dates, names, numbers, and other facts.
