Do the Dewey Decimal Quiz

We have been working on learning the Dewey Decimal System for the past couple of weeks. You should have been memorizing the Dewey Rap and should have a basic idea of what the Dewey Decimal System is all about. Now let's see what you know!

It's time to see what you know. Let's find out if you can hang with Melville Dewey. Everyone in the 5th grade class should have this down by now. Are you ready to rock? let's go!
