Great dictionaries!!!

I purchased a set of dictionaries for use in my 6th grade classroom and they are AWESOME!!!!!!! They are easy to use, but still have the words that the kids need as well as definitions that are not too easy, but not way over their heads either.

Very good

This dictionnary is very good. I love the homework help and the definitions. It's great for elemantary, high or college students.

Explorer Student Dictionary Pretty Thourough

While not the most sophisticated dictionary ever, it does well with technology-type words that older dictionaries lack. (Computer and scientific words are well defined and plentiful). This is not to say that it fails in other areas, but rather that these technology-based words are well accounted for.
