| Sumario: | The article presents information on various curriculum bulletins. One of the bulletins is "General Science, Junior High School, Grade Nine, Curriculum Bulletin 22," developed by Cincinnati Public Schools. Cincinnati has been successful in developing a general science guide which points the direction for a stimulating science program for ninth graders. Suggestions for concept development go beyond the traditional suggestion found in science materials for this grade level. The program is developed within a rationale which includes consideration of modern technological society as well as principles of child growth and development. Another bulletin "A Guide to Sea Shells and Seashore Life," prepared by Harlan L. Wilson, will assist San Diego teachers in their study with children of sea shells and shore life, an important area to explore with these children who live near the sea. The material will help children and teachers to identify some of the life forms to be found on their seashore and to understand the adaptations that these animals have made to their environment.
