Dallas adopts
Holt Series
The Dallas School District has
announced the adoption of the Holt
Science Series for use in grades one
through six. The Holt Science
Series, published by Holt, Rinehart
and Winston, provides a balanced
presentation of life, earth and physi-
cal sciences and features the latest
technological application of scien-
tific theories.
The series includes an easy-to-
follow pupil edition that develops
thinking skills and provides activi-
ties to help students build better
science understanding, and a
Teacher's Edition that allows the
instructer to adapt the program to
his-her own teaching style and
needs.
In an effort to respond to the
growing public concern for more
science instruction and better, more
rigorous textbooks, Dallas is excited
to be the first school district in the
State of Pennsylvania to adopt the
Holt Science Series.
Gerald Wycallis, Assistant Super-
intendent, said “With the present
emphasis on Science and Mathemat-
ics, the Dallas School District staff
members have done an excellent
job in selecting the most current
and most appropriate science text
available. I believe the use of these
texts at the elementary level will
provide a more positive influence on
our excellent secondary science pro-
gram.”
In addition to the textbooks,
teachers are provided with “hands
on” activities instruction by a Holt
consultant, helping the instructor
become comfortable with the series.
