FOREWORD
One welcomes the publication of this series of textbooks as part of the Primary Education
Improvement Project funded by the Inter-American Development Bank and the Government of
Guyana.
This series of texts has been long in planning, writing and producing. In the process however,
many Guyanese have developed skills in textbook writing and publication. This will serve
Education well in the future.
We congratulate all those responsible for the production of these texts. They have done a good
job. Guyanese children at the Primary level, and, indeed, the society as a whole, will be the
beneficiaries of their labour.
Thanks to the Inter-American Development Bank for its financial support. Primary Education in
Guyana will benefit considerably with the availability of relevant reading material.
