Non-Fiction Books (Grades 2 and 3)

Hello Everyone,

Last week, students in second through third grade worked on a QR (quick response) investigation using iPod touch devices to find the missing hundreds digits to complete the Dewey Decimal numbers for some popular topics.

When they scanned the QR code on a mini poster like this one for computers, they discovered the missing hundreds digit to complete the call number ” ? 04.”

An example of a QR code mini-poster.

Enthusiastically,

Big 10 Dewey Non-fiction Categories (Grades 2-5)

Hello Everyone,

This week my library students in grades 2 through 5 have been discussing the Big 10 categories non-fiction books have been placed into on our library shelves. ​We can use the “Dewey Buddy” to help us remember the Big 10 categories.
