CONT

Realia ... refers to three-dimensional objects from real life, whether man-made (artifacts, tools, ustensils, etc.) or naturally occurring (specimens, samples, etc), usually borrowed, purchased, or received as gifts by a teacher, library, or museum for use in classroom instruction or in exhibits ... Realia include objects used by educators to help students to better understand other cultures and real life situations. A teacher of a foreign language often employs realia to strengthen students' associations between words for everyday objects and the objects themselves. In many cases these objects are part of an instructional kit which includes a manual and is thus considered as being part of a documentary whole by librarians.
