The a, b, and c series are all whiten using

the same carefully controlled vocabulary.

The Ladybird Keywords Reading Scheme

has three series, each containing

twelve books.

The 'a' series gradually introduces and

repeats new words.

The parallel 'b' series provides further

practice of these words, but in a different

context and with different illustrations.

.V.

The 'c' series uses familiar words to teach

phonics in a methodicai way, enabling

children to read more difficult words. It also

provides a link with writing.

All three series are written using the same

carefully controlled vocabulary.
