Library

See Lesson Ideas for this topic

Most children know that a library is a place that has books, magazines, newspapers, reference books, and other materials that people can borrow. A library can hold hundreds of different materials, so your children should learn how to find what they need. Your children should understand that the library is organized by the Dewey Decimal System, and they should know how to use a card catalog to find their materials. Your children should also understand how to check out and return books and understand appropriate library behavior.
