THE TOTAL READING programs of seven major pub- (1310 South), Sunday. lishing firms were tested in nine elementary schools of the district Each of the nine test schools was matched with a control," where previous policy of using several basal texts and selected support materials was carried out. As nearly as possible the test and control schools were balanced as to socioeconomic level of the families, past per r formance on testing programs, constancy of ratio and frequency of change affected by double-sessioscheduling, Dr. Farrer explained. "IT IS DIPORTANT TO NOTE that in eight of the nine test schools, the test norms are higher in both paragraph meaning and word meaning as compared with the test norms in the nine control schools, he said. In recording test results, given during the seventh month of the sixth grade (6.7) the expected norms would be 6.7. Here, however, are the results first figure the year of learning, second (after the decimal) the month of the year (end of the sixth grade thus would be 6.9, since there are but nine months of school): 33-8- 8 her-say-sh-e v " w 2 ti 7 Vandals Shatter School Windows 0 l6, 000 Members to Gather UEA Drafts Plans for Oct. 5-- 7 Convention in S.L.

They were somewhat handicapped. NEXT YEAR, IN THOSE classes where the teachers now are familiar with the materials, they can begin to add their own refinements to the materials, and we expect stepped-uresults when these expert teachers combine their experience with the proven materials. Dr. Farrer has recommended, and the Board of Education has agreed, that all 32 elementary schools of the district will go on the new program this coming year. "We have 190 teachers who have experience in the field now, and can help the others use their materials to best advantage, Dr. Farrer said. Last year we had to pety on teaching consultants sent out by the publishers and on our own supervisory staff. The task will be easier this year." Farrer said. p ALLYN AND BACON BASAL READING Series will be used next fall in David Gourley, Morningside, West Kearns, Woodrow Wilson schools.
