ABSTRACT
Georgia's Quality Core Curriculum (QCC) originated in 1984

technological advances, and create a more effective base for teaching. This
1999 report on Georgia's education for students in grades K-5 presents core
scienck
curriculum requirements in the areas of language arts, mathematics,
social studies, health and physical education, and fine arts (dance, music,
For each curriculum area, the report presents an
theater, and visual arts) .
introduction and a description of the revision process and revisions made for
that specific area.
