Teaching your students to use the library independently is one of the best educational gifts you can give them. Join us this week as we begin our year-long homeschool tour of the Dewey Decimal system.
📚 Exploring the Dewey Decimal System at Your Local Library
On the first Tuesday of every month we invite you and your homeschool students to explore one of the major divisions of the Dewey Decimal System at your local public library. If you follow this miniature curriculum for just a few minutes each month your students will become expert library navigators and will gain a new appreciation for the whole universe of knowledge. Print your own River Houses Homeschool Calendar (including the Dewey schedule) on our main calendar page, and add your name to our free homeschool mailing list to get these and other easy little lessons delivered right to your mailbox every week! 😊
