Project AIMS (Activities that Integrate Mathematics and Science) produces a variety of curriculum materials that deal with the integration of learning experiences, problem solving activities, and the use of cooperative learning. This document is a compilation of the AIMS newsletters published during the 1986-87 academic year. Each of the ten issues contains: (1) three new, previously unpublished and reproducible activities (one each for the K-2, 3-5, and 6-9 grade level ranges); (2) two 8.5 x 11 inch blackline masters featuring one of the new science posters and one of the new problem solving mathematics posters; (3) a feature article about a school, school district, or state that is implementing the AIMS program in a systematic manner, describing the specifics of those efforts that may be helpful to others; (4) a feature article about one member of the AIMS National Leadership Network; (5) information about the release of new publications and new programs; (6) a special section devoted to Project SETUP (Software Evaluation and Teaching Utilities Program) software and book reviews; and (7) a reader's corner, which features teachers comments and suggestions for the use of particular investigations, as well as teacher-developed adaptations for special student groups.
