TARGET: card catalog

[Kaline Goodrich-Hills <kaline369@YAHOO.COM>]

Now I am asking for help for me.  I still have to
teach card catalog skills and have never been able to
think of a way to make it initially fun or even very
interesting.  Does anyone have any good ideas for
getting the basic facts to second/third graders
(subject, title, & author cards; ignore A, An, & The
at the beginning of a title, etc.)  After they have
the facts, we do some different activities, but that
first introduction is so uninteresting for the kids
AND me, if the truth be known.
Any help would be appreciated.  TIA (am I right in
assuming that this means Thanks In Advance; just
checking).
