Answer:
. D) She wants her to use a source like an electronic or print dictionary.
Explanation:
Francine's teacher asked her to use a reference to find out how to spell a word, instead of telling her the spelling because her teacher wanted her to check the spelling and meaning of the word using a source like a dictionary.

These are the things her teacher wanted her to learn by instructing her to use a reference.
