P. 8
A number of activities to develop listening, speaking and writing skills as well as
vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation have been suggested in the book.
The different section headings are as follows:
Preparatory Activity : Activities used in the units for warm up/
activating learner's background knowledge
Let's Understand : Questions to check reading comprehension skills
Let's Practise Words : Activities for vocabulary building
Let's Listen : Tasks for developing listening skills
Let's Write : Tasks for developing writing skills
Let's Practise Language : Activities for grammar practice
Let's Speak : Speaking Activities
Extended Activity : Games for language development
The content of the book - prose pieces and poems - should be used to develop the
language learning skills and enable learners to use English appropriately and naturally
in meaningful situations. Learners should be involved in group discussions, pair
activities, individual and group presentations to maximize learning opportunities in
the class.
In addition to the Textbook, a Workbook has also been prepared. Tasks for Continuous
and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) have been suggested in these books. These
tasks may be used or similar tasks may be designed for conducting formative and
summative assessments.
We hope you find these books interesting to share with the learners. We also hope
our learners will find them extremely useful in l earning English.
