Other lists in the form of reviews consist of groups of words especially alluded to by other authors. For example, at the close of the work of the third grade will be found the hundred commonest words in the English language.

On pages 42 and 43 of the fifth year work and pages 84 and 85 of the sixth year will be found lists of words taken from the 1,000 commonest words of the English language. At the end of other grades will be found lists' of known trouble makers which should be carefully reviewed. Use Of Vocabulary At the end of the work for each...
