Previous to NBA the 3 point could use any dictionary. Personally I think
all students should be encouraged to use a full, unrestricted, variety of
paper dictionaries. Passport, the white, the Zilberman? or whatever should
be required from the 7th grade. Even if the black Oxford remains the
"exclusive" for 4/5 points, it shouldn't be required until the 11th
grade. Do you put your toddlers in adult-sized shoes? First get the
students to feel comfortable with dictionary use; then, when they can't
find the word they need in Passport, they will willingly open the others,
even the black one.
Speaking from experience as a teacher of weak, dictionary-phobic students.
