Reading cards to test reading comprehension by Jisha K.

These are some of the comprehension passages which can be used as reading cards to test the reading comprehension. Hope this would prove useful to the learners. There are a lot of sites that provide e-reading materials where a learner gets a chance to verify his answers. k5learning.com is one among them. These are printable as well. If it is designed with a little bit of pictures, it could add more beauty and there by make comprehension easier.

Let us brush up our listening and speaking skills - Jisha K.

The first post of this year is a brushing up our listening and speaking skills. This was prepared for us by Jisha K.

Dear learners,

Your summer hibernation is about to expire. It’s high time we plummet into our bookish delights.Before your memory plays tricks on you, each of you should shrug yourself off your pastimes, sleeping preferences and sluggish routine and gather the momentum. A lot of things await to entertain you. A veritable treasure house where you could get amused with language activities, more scope for emoting and higher chances to excel in your respective favorite fields. A world of new authors with unbelievable story telling skills, poems that take you to deeper levels of life, and a lot more to be more creative. With the outset of ‘the bountiful monsoon', you would slowly venture out splashing mud water all along. School days and it’s fun, and your longing to be with your friends..... Everything is as fresh as you left. You are welcome to your own world. In fact your school waits for you with smarter classrooms and smarter methods equipping itself with high-tech gadgets and faculties.

Before we get engaged in the textual works, let us find out some time for brushing up our listening and speaking skills.

I have compiled some of the motivating stories to entertain you. But at the same time, let me remind you that these could be used for the other skills as well. It depends on how you execute the task. So I have intentionally dropped the headings, morals,discussion points and the accompanying tasks. Hope with the help of your teacher you would be able to reap the fruits.Listening and speaking skills can be enhanced with a couple of other methods as well.With the help of I.C.T, you can actually make learning easier and lighter and of course smarter.If you think you could access them to incorporate into your daily classes, I would like to mention some apps that are really useful. The one I would recommend for listening and speaking skills is' Oxford Advanced listening and speaking' skills app. This would provide you the printed material along with it’s audio. You could pause,replay and hear what you left behind.There is another app named ‘Speaking English' which would also help you to speak correctly. But the time being,this would do for a starter. You could listen while the story is being told and try to answer the questions that you are asked to.Also keep in mind that you must comprehend the story. By the end of the first session, you would be able to have a thorough comprehension of the story. Now it’s up to you to reproduce the story,discuss the important issues that might have arrested your attention, role plays, skits, imaginary conversations,or screenplay the same etc..

Hope you would have a great time ahead.

WISH YOU ALL AN EVENTFUL YEAR AHEAD.

Welcome back after Mid Summer Holidays

Dear teachers, students and parents,

The mid summer vacation is almost over and we are entering a new academic year. 

This vacation was a unique one as there were no special classes for High School students. Children were completely free and they must have played a lot ( hope not on mobile/computer).

Now its time to start studies again...

This year teachers have been trained how to incorporate ICT in teaching their subject / language.

Let us hope that this would be a fruitful..

SSLC 2017 - English Question Paper Review by Jisha K.

A student friendly question paper

The English question paper designed for the s.s.l c learners for the year 2017 was student friendly. There are no ambiguities, no twists and turns and nothing to bewilder the learners. It takes into account all the types of learners and has given them ample scope for expressing themselves in their own manner. Most of the lessons are touched. It has discourses which suits to the meritorious as well as to the slow performers. Passages for comprehension are designed so well.

Appreciating poem gives scope for both the talented as well as the average learners. Profile writing is made easier since it is a repetition of the model question. Unseen passage is nothing to worry about since it is so simple. Conversation also appeared comforting for the student because it was one of the much practiced one.Notice pauses no threat at all.Write- up on reading books and its influence on Adichie for a changed perception also imparts a positive note.Diary entry of the doctor narrating his strange encounter with the snake too helps the children to relax while recollecting what they have learned.Almost all the major issue domains such as child labour,film making,social media, books,drugs and it’s misuse,hardworking and will power,are covered up.The official letter also did justice to the relevant issue .So altogether English did not make them sweat in fear.language elements are way easier to attempt. Even a wild guess could get you nearer to the answer.Some may feel disappointed at not finding pyramids and sentence patterns but no offenses since everything under language elements could lead you only to the answer.A double tag is also a blessing i n disguise.Hope all of them have done their best.

SSLC English - How to write a narrative - by Jisha K.

Dearall,
              During the evaluation of the SSLC 2017 Model Exam answers, I realized that many of the learners who have attempted the narrative took it to be just a synopsis or a story retold. Hence I thought to try a sample narrative which I think is way behind perfection. But still...it may of some help.

SSLC English - EASY WIN - A Complete Solution for SSLC Students

I am Shabeen V. Usman, working as a primary teacher. I am really fond of English language. I have compiled a book named Easy Win for SSLC students. I have seen many PDF files shared among our english4keralasyllabus.com and spandanamnews  blogs. So I grabbed all of the pdf's and compiled into one. I have retyped some of the discourses, (it doesn't mean that I changed the content) and added some grammar and discourses into it.

I haven't mentioned all the names of the teachers who shared the content here in these two blogs, but I have mentioned the website addresses. 

Special thanks to JISHA Teacher, who shared numerous files.

"This is OUR book for English learners, lets teacher together"

NB: Anybody can use this, and add their contents to it...There is no restrictions to use this book. Lets hold our hand to move forward with better future......
