The document discusses the Dewey Decimal System, which was invented by Melvil Dewey to categorize books into 10 main subject groups represented by 3-digit numbers. It explains the general categories including 000s for general works, 100s for philosophy, 200s for religion, and so on up to 900s for history and geography. Nonfiction books are organized on shelves first by their Dewey Decimal number, which helps readers find books on the same subject near each other.
Each student was assigned one letter of the alphabet and was able to choose one animal under that letter to research. Students found photos, diagrams, and information about their animal to help them create one page of our class picture dictionary. Take a look at what we made!

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2. We have learned the recipe for making a nonfiction call number. numbers (for the subject) first three letters of the author’s last name
3. Now let’s learn more about the numbers in a nonfiction call number.
4. How do we know what number goes with each subject ? By using something cool called The Dewey Decimal System !!
5. The Dewey Decimal System is a tool used to sort books into groups or categories
6. This system was invented by a man named Melvil Dewey . He was a librarian who lived long ago.
7. Sorting books by subject, what a brilliant idea!! I think I’ve got it !!
8. 10 general groups for sorting all of the subjects General means broad, lots of subjects will fit into each group.
9. Here are the 10 general groups for sorting books in the Dewey Decimal System: General Works Philosophy Religion Social Studies Language Science Technology Arts and Leisure Literature History/Geography
10. This seems like a lot to remember, but don’t worry you’ll learn it all quickly. So let’s get going !!!!
11. 000s-General Works Books that fit in this group have many different subjects in them. Like: Encyclopedias or The Guinness Book of Records This is also where books on unexplained subjects would be found- like The Loch Ness Monster.
20. 800s-Literature Books in this group are stories, plays, or poetry. This is the group fiction books were put in long ago when The Dewey Decimal System was first invented.
21. Today we have too many fiction books in our libraries to organize them in this way, so fiction books have their own way of being organized. You know, in ABC order, by author !
23. Biography- 92 Don’t forget this group. It contains books about famous people’s lives.
24. Knowing these big groups will help make it easier to find the books you want in the nonfiction section.
25. Remember, nonfiction call numbers are placed in number order first, so that means all of the books about the same subject end up near each other on the shelf. That’s Smart !!!!
26. Let’s See What You’ve Learned Call numbers help us find the books we want to read !!!
27. 1. What is the recipe for a nonfiction call number? Numbers (for the subject) First three letters in the author’s last name
28. 2. What system tells us what numbers go with each subject? Dewey Decimal System
29. 3. Who is responsible for inventing the Dewey Decimal System? Melvil Dewey

Editor's Notes
In Melvil’s day there was no set way for library books to be organized. This made it hard for people to find the books they wanted, so Melvil started thinking and came up with a brilliant idea!!
He decided it would make it easier to find books if they were grouped by subject, so first he came up with 10 general groups to use for sorting all subjects.
Today we have too many fiction books in our libraries to organize them in this way, so fiction books have their own way of being organized.
