  2. Please make sure you have taken the Dewey Decimal Pretest

  3. Scope • This power point is designed to provide basic knowledge of the Dewey Decimal System to third grade students at Katherine B. Sutton Elementary School in Forsyth, Georgia. • A pretest will assess students prior knowledge of Dewey before teaching and a post test will be administered to assess learning.

  4. Who was Melvil Dewey? • American librarian and educator • Founder of the American Library Association and The Library Journal • Created the Dewey Decimal Classification System to arrange books in libraries • Member of the American Library Association’s Hall of Fame

  5. So, what is the Dewey Decimal Classification System? • DDC is a dynamic structure for organizing library collections (OCLC, nd) • Offers consistency between libraries • All knowledge is divided into ten main categories or classes (Let’s Do Dewey, nd) • Our school library uses the Dewey Decimal System to classify all non-fiction books. • The number assigned to each book is like its address, it is how we find it in the library. We call these numbers call numbers.

  6. Where do you find a call number? • *This is what a call number looks like on a book. *Call numbers are usually on the spine of books.

  7. He located the call number on the spine of the book. This book’s call number (its address) is in the 600s, but what does that mean? This student found a book about Great Danes.

  19. CCGPS • So, besides providing another resource for learning language skills and helping us find books about the key people we need to learn about, how does the Dewey Decimal Classification System relate to what you need to learn in 3rd grade? • ELACC3W7: Conduct short research projects that build knowledge about a topic. • ELACC3W8: Recall information from experience or gather information from print and digital sources; take brief notes on sources and sort evidence into provided categories • ELACC3SL4: Report on a topic or text, tell a story, or recount an experience with appropriate facts and relevant, descriptive details, speaking clearly at an understandable pace. https://www.georgiastandards.org/Common-Core/Common%20Core%20Frameworks/CCGPS_ELA_Grade3_Standards.pdf

  20. Now it’s time to see what you have learned… • 000 - Computer science, information & general works • 100 - Philosophy & psychology • 200 – Religion • 300 – Social sciences • 400 – Language • 500 – Science • 600 – Technology • 700 – Arts & recreation • 800 – Literature • 900 – History & geography
