[ISLMA-Share] Call number training

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

When I had the elementary grades, after we talked about the address of a
book... I would hand the kids sheets of paper with call numbers on them and
have them line up in order.  The secretary across the hall didn't care for
that lesson... things got loud a time or two...
