Doing Dewey!
Review Fiction/Non-Fiction differences, Dewey Decimal numbers. Click through entire site (use bottom right button to go to next page). When you get to "Dewey Home", be sure to read the Alien story and look at all the breakouts of the 100's
Review the Dewey "Hundreds" and then click on ten divisions to get a further breakout of the Dewey numbers by "Tens"

This extensive multi-media tour of the Dewey Decimal system, and why it's needed describes the need for organization and how the DDC is set up. Go through the first four links on left - at least!


Interactive Dewey Practice Activities

Starting at the most basic and working toward more difficult placements, alphabetize various words
A break out of the Dewey system by ones! (click on any of the 10 categories to see a more detailed list)
