NOTES ON THE RE-ISSUE AND UPDATE OF
ENGLISH THROUGH PICTURES
DESIGN FOR LEARNING
These three pocketbooks are the remarkable invention of
I. A. Richards and Christine Gibson. Designed for learning
English in the quickest and clearest way—through pic-
tures—learners are invited right from the beginning to put
widely useful words to work in key sentence patterns
where meaning is clearly shown in pictures. Each sentence
situation builds to a successful discovery of the next, while
confirming mastery of the earlier steps. The simplified
black and white drawings allow the learner to focus on the
sentence patterns and on success in taking control of lan-
guage. Comparisons of sentence situations can be made on
the individual frames on a page and through a systematic
building on all that has gone before. Workbooks included
in Books I and II challenge and reinforce growing compe-
tencies, while at the same time providing enriched reading
and writing well within the learner’s grasp. Motivation for
learning comes from handling increasingly complex pat-
terns successfully and confidently.
WORDS WITH POWER
The three pocketbooks focus on a small, careful selection of
the most widely useful English words put into key patterns.
These are words with power to define other words and to
improve the possibilities of successful communication in
any field of human endeavour. Today these are the words
of an English most commonly employed throughout the
planet. Book I contains a vocabulary of 250 words; an addi-
tional 500 word vocabulary is developed in Book II. These
750 words are used in Book III to build a command of 1000
words which, by their defining power, hold the possibility
of understanding another 20,000 words of English. Book III
invites learners to explore much useful information about
the world in which they live while continuing the crucial
process of learning to learn. Words with power become
instruments for thinking. The purpose of the pocketbooks
is to supply starting points from which learners can go out
in different directions as their interests may take them.
These are books of beginnings.
TOWARD A WORLD ENGLISH
These materials have been used successfully by millions
in more than forty countries. They have been used as a
self-teacher by learners of all ages, in schools and in all
those diverse settings in the world where a command of
English is needed. The materials are the result of exten-
sive research and field testing for over fifty years.
Although many users’ first language will be English, mil-
lions more will come to English as a second or alternative
language. For this group, assistance is needed to move the
learner beyond visual comprehension to a command of
both spoken and written English. The most effective help
will come from a teacher with a command of English who
can act as a model and make corrections on pronunciation.
Assistance can come as well from audio materials directly
matched with the text, with space for the learner to practice
speaking.
In updating English Through Pictures, the greatest care
has been taken at all times to maintain the integrity of the
learning system. The updating of this re-issue is to be
found mainly in Book II and III. Dates, prices, popu-
lation figures, other factual information, and selected
illustrations have been updated for current usage. This
updating must, of course, be a continuous exercise by the
learners. The pocketbooks must become their own, and a
base or frame on which future learning can be mounted
safely and effectively.

PREFACE
English Through Pictures Book II adapts the instructional
design as in Book I of the series, employing all together
about 750 highly useful words at work in the essential sen-
tence patterns of the language. A pictorial commentary
explains the sentences as they appear, arranged in a dou-
ble-page display of sentences in situations to invite com-
parison with one another. Learners quickly get a sense of
the new language when they can repeat the sentences after
an informant while they look at the depictions.
For study of the written language, a workbook of exercises,
graded step by step to the teaching sequence, has been pro-
vided to challenge and reinforce the learning of all lexical
and structural elements while providing enrichment read-
ing and writing within the learner’s reach. The new edition
of English Through Pictures Book I assembles for the first
time in one volume A First Workbook of English bound
together with the teaching text. English Through Pictures
Book II and A Second Wordkbook of English follow as the
second volume of the new edition.
Field use of the materials—in school and college class-
rooms, in language laboratories, on educational televi-
sion, and in special programs for industry, social services
and teacher training courses—has established their quick
effectiveness. The script and workbook exercises then
confirm the oral learning. Verifiable statements of
fact about things that can be indicated lead in the later
pages into discussion of ideas when words already made
clear are brought back to help explain the new. The
developing language is self-reviewing.
