It should also be realized that these reprints were originally published
between 1944 and 1984. The vast majority of these "gems" are untimely,
but a few are well over 50 years old. The Forest Perserve Distrtict of
Cook County will not take any responsibility for their content and offer
these for both the information they contain and the historical significance
they may provide.
These bulletins can serve more than one purpose:
Obviously they are a great resource of interesting information about nature,
and
they can be used as a springboard for students to do some re-writing or
enhancing activities. Have students make drawings for selected articles.
Use your imagination and you should realize the value of these bulletins
for all grade levels.
