Electronic Handheld DictionaryHaving an Electronic Handheld Dictionary at your dispersal is a fantastic resource for a teacher but also extremely useful just to have in your bag for everyday use. I use a Franklin LWB1216 Childrens Dictionary & Spellchecker  in my tutoring and I haven’t met a child yet who didn’t enjoy using it.
These electronic devices put the fun back into finding out about words. This Franklin Electronic Dictionary is brilliant on a number of levels: - it’s small - roughly 13cm (5inches) by 9cm (3.5 inches) making it easy to pop in your bag - the price is good - around £20 for 30,000 words and phrases - if you type in a word phonetically for example ‘lite’, it will suggest the spelling of ‘light’ in its results on the screen. - you can find out what part of speech the featured word is (noun, adjective, verb etc) - there is a useful thesaurus built in - children can play word games such as Hangman, Word Train, Jumble, Words Within Words - you can create your own word list and play games based on it - there’s the opportunity for basic arithmetic practice - it even has useful phrases available in French and Spanish For the 6 - 11 age group I would say the Franklin LWB1216 Childrens Dictionary & Spellchecker is a great purchase.
