Excerpt from Outline Course of Study, 1927 The first step in the revision of the list of books for use in the ele mentary schools of the State is the preparation of an outline course of study to which all changes in the list must conform. The text-book Commission has prepared the following outline which will serve as a guide in the selection and adoption of books for the next five years. I hereby give my official approval, as directed by law, for the publication and use of this bulletin. Changes made in the course of study will become effective as the books are changed in the respective subjects. No adoptions made from the multiple lists submitted by the Commission can become effective for use before the school year 1928 - 29, as the books now on the list and the course of study now in use will be applicable to the school year 1927-28. As each major subject is dealt with from year to year, suggestions to teachers and detailed outlines of these subjects, as required by Section 39 of the School Code, will be prepared and published from time to time.
