DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE
Dear Teacher,
The Resource Material for English covers Classes I to VIII. It is an
attempt to empower the teacher with more activities which can be
used in the classroom. The need to master English has always been
felt and hence Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan decided to target the
elementary classes, so that students can be confident by the time
they reach the secondary stage. The heavy stress on writing, at the
cost of developing other language skills, has been one of the main
causes of our students’ poor communication skills. This book
attempts to redress the imbalance by adding inputs on developing
listening skills along with the other skills of reading, writing and
speaking.
Each Unit of the textbook is covered. The four core skills of
Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing are the focus points of the
material. Teachers can make copies of certain activities or
exercises for use in the classroom.
Teachers should use the Listening and Speaking skills, in particular,
so that our students are as comfortable using English as they are
their mother tongue. Feel free to select some activities or all of
them, the choice is yours. Do keep a judicious balance between oral
communication and writing practice.
I hope this book proves useful to the teacher, who is our first
stakeholder and through the teacher to the students who are our
first beneficiaries.
USHA ASWATH IYER
