Finding the Common Ground.
Wallace, Dawn
English Journal, v69 n2 p37-41 Feb 1980
Describes an attempt to combine secondary English instruction emphasizing United States literature with science and history by finding "common ground" between these disciplines in (1) the separation of truth from falsehood and (2) logical thinking. Biographies combined history and literature, and science fiction combined science and English; observation, definition, and classification were taught with science. (DF)
