PREFACE
Tse New Method Readers are based on a carefullv
graded selectionof the commonestEnglish n,ords. Each
book of the seriesassumesthat the child kno'wsall the
words which have been taught in the preceding books.
trt is therefore essentialto begin with the first book. In
addition each book is so constructed that each lesson
assumesthat the child knows the words which have been
taught in the preceding lessons. It is important, therefore, to read the book right through, and not to omit any
lessonsor to changetheir order. Teachersare advised'to
seethat each child possesses
a copy of the Companion
to this
book (as otherwisemuch time *iit U. lost in- unnecessary
blackboard writing), and to follow the lessonplarrsset out
in the guide to the series, lfhe lTearhingof Engiishas far as
local conditionsallow.
This book, Reader f, is the'second of the series, ft
follows the Primer (which now contains i8o words), and
teachesa further e36 words. When the Readeris finished
further practice in-reading may be obtained by using the
New Method Supplementary Readers, Stage I, which
introduce no wordi or only- a few words beyond,those
which have already been learnt.
