Drew Central fourth graders were presented with dictionaries and thesauruses from Monticello Rotary Club members. Students will use these reference books when working on strategies from the Arkansas initiative, R.I.S.E. Research shows students who understand how words are formed by combining prefixes, suffixes, and roots tend to have a larger vocabularies and better reading comprehension than peers without such knowledge.
