Back to top Classification system The JCCH library follows an abbreviated Dewey Decimal System in classifying our materials. Items designated for curriculum studies are identified by the category numbers 100, 200, 300, etc followed by the letter "C." Sometimes an area of curriculum study must be broken down into several sub-categories. In these instances, we use -01, or -02, etc to show the subcategories. For example,Language Arts curriculum is designated as 400 C; Early Readers are 401 C, and Penmanship is 402 C. Items not designated as curriculum are classified according to the Dewey Decimal system and Dewey's Table of Standard Subdivisions Items designated as training aides to curriculum are identified with a "TA" and follow the curriculum studies classification OR the Dewey System   Abbreviations MAG = magazines F & JF = adult fiction and junior fiction PB = picture books 92 or J92 = adult or junior biography or autobiography V = video Audio = audio cassettes TA = training aides C = curriculum studies REF = reference materials Reference List for CURRICULUM materials 000 C Homeschool resources 100C Philosophy curriculum 200 C Religion (Bible studies) 300 C Social Studies (civics, law, econ. etc_ 400 C Language Arts (which includes grammar, spelling, reading, writing, or combinations of these subjects) 401 C Early Readers 402 C Penmanship instruction (manuscript and cursive) 500 C Mathematics 501 C Science 600 C Career training/applied sciences 700 C Art 701 C Music 702 C Dance 703 C Physical Education 800 C Classical Literature 900 C History 901 C Geography   Back to top Booklists THIS SITE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION General/resources Philosophy Religion Social Sciences Language Pure Sciences Math Science Applied Sciences The Arts Classic Literature Geography History Biographies Fiction   Back to top Home | Testing | Yearbook | Library | Mountain Group | Charles Town Group | Catholic Group | Covenant Homeschool Group | Message Board | Homeschooler's forum | Field Trips
