TEACHING GUIDES, STUDENT MANUALS AND SAMPLE TEST PACKETS
Plan to order soon! School districts are
eligible to use Title II funds to purchase instructional materials that are used for professional
development or to attend Science Olympiad Summer Institutes. Although teams have improved their tournament
placement by attending an Institute (see:
http://www.soinc.org/sosi.htm), not all teams can attend, so coaches like you have created these
Guides as an alternative.
