Dictionary Day commemorates the birth of Noah Webster (October 16, 1758), who was the “father of the American dictionary.” Celebrate the day by planning a dictionary scavenger hunt, playing Scrabble, creating a classroom dictionary, or any of the dozens of other ideas presented on this special Lesson Planning page from Education World.
Welcome to Hilltown Families, a grassroots communication network for families with grade school children living in Western Mass, established in 2005 by hilltown mother and long time activist Sienna Wildfield.

HF also invites the voices of parent’s surviving the struggles and challenges of parenthood, along with art and photography. Click here to find out how to become a contributing writer/artists.
