Caleb Gattegno's Silent Way
The First English Word Chart
One of the 12 word charts on which the functional words of the language are printed in color.
The colour code is the same as that of the rectangle chart and the fidel.
Only the structural vocabulary of the language (about 500 words) is included: pronouns, articles, prepositions, common adjectives and adverbs, conjunctions, auxiliary verbs and a few other common verbs but very few nouns.
The use of colour enables students to read directly in languages with a different alphabet or characters and to pronounce correctly what they read.
