When children get their hands on dictionaries.

Each day Abby has a different activity with regard to the week's spelling words.

Yesterday, the activity she chose was to write a sentence describing the meaning for each. Well, one of her words was "foyer." She didn't ask me what "foyer" meant, but let's just say I strongly suspect some kind of reference device was employed before she proferred this sentence for her teacher's perusal:

"Foyer is an anteroom or lobby, especially of a theater."
