Throughout the school year, the
group Of teachers following the Rota-
ton Plan should meet every two OF
three weeks with the county superin-
tendent and carefully and definitely
plan and outline the work. A grea,
deal of the success Of the work de-
ponds upon these meetings, Here def
mite specific problems are presented
and suggestions given. The teachers
are thinking in terms of their com
munity; they keep hitched; they get
enthusiasm from others doing the
same work. The teachers should have
chance to visit other schools doing
the work. II is well for teachers and
pupils TO keep notes on their work,
preserve and mount samples, take pic
lures of various activities. Teachers
should collect material and with their
pupils demonstrate their work ut
teachers meetings, community meet
ings, county institutes. Tell the story
