Fifth graders read lessons dealing with a geometry rule. Half received preinstruction on the concepts related in the rule in either a logical or random order. Learning was measured on a rule attainment test. Only subjects receiving preinstruction on the concepts prior to rule instruction performed better than a control group. (Author/RD)
