_From Klaus Bayr, Geography (emeritus): _The geography department published the Connecticut Atlas for 4th Graders last month.

It is the fifth such atlas Klaus Bayr and his students have produced. The others were on New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.

All of these atlases conform to the standards for social studies in each state and include approximately 20 maps of physical features and notes on the state’s history and cultural aspects. Statistical data on population and area of each town and photographs taken by Bayr and Stephanie Straittiff are included.
