designed for teachers who have The World Book Encyclopedia in theirclassrooms.The Unit Teaching Plans grew out of a co-operative project in which selected teachers infive school systems participated.These teachers and their pupils used The World Book Encyclopediacontinuously in their classrooms,and for one year kept a running anecdotal record of the various waysin which they found World Book especially helpful.  \nThe teachers taught the subjects and topics which they would otherwise have taught anyway,andreported the materials they used and how they used them.In addition to individual conferences duringthe year,three meetings of these teachers were held in each of the five school systems to discuss theproject and to formulate co-operatively the basic pattern of these instructional units.Try-out units weredeveloped,written,analyzed,and criticized.This series of instructional units—The Unit Teaching Plans-is the result.  \nThe following teachers and supervisors in
