Switala, William J.

Social Studies Journal, v13 p8-12 Spr 1984

The major recommendation was the formulation of an American and Pennsylvania studies program in a 9th- and 10th-grade sequence. The rationale for abandoning the traditional two-year program offered in the 8th and 11th grades or the U.S. history survey course is presented. Recommendations regarding elementary grades are also discussed. (RM)
