Abstract	Described is a proposed structure for an elementary school science program that has as its fundamental, underlying assumption a science curriculum that enables the child to "learn how to learn" and sets self-actualized learning as a major goal of education. This program also calls for: (1) flexibility that facilitates maximum cognitive progress of individuals, a program that involves a self-determined pace; (2) instruction that facilitates individual development of interests, attitudes, personality, and creativity; (3) a program that encourages a child's tendency to accept the existence of individuals who have ideas and values which are different from his own; and (4) specification of several elements of classroom conditions that are described in sufficient detail to permit implementation in the schools for which the program is intended; these conditions can be established and maintained by the development of appropriate teacher behaviors, facilities in the classroom, and materials for children.
