Reading Hindi with IPA symbols - Preparatory/Primary school - [ə],a / ā,[a:] Matra

 In this post, I have reading matter – words and sentences with IPA symbols to help the non-Hindi speakers. Many subscribers earlier had requested this particular topic to help them teach their English speaking kids.

·       It is important to be able to distinguish between short and long vowels for correct pronunciation because these vowels, in combination with consonants, are used to form words.

·       It is noteworthy that many consonants which are part of the Hindi language do not exist in English. ड़/ढ़ are difficult to pronounce in English.

·       Following consonants with a नुक्ता (dot) under the alphabet is part of Urdu and Persian words. eg. क़लाम, ख़ान, ग़ैर जहाज़, ज़ीरा, फ़नकार

   क़    ख़    ग़   ज़    फ़   ड़      ढ़

         [q]     [x]      [ɣ]     [z]      [f]     [ɽ]    [ɽʱ]    (IPL)

 

  In this post, I have taken up Hindi words and sentences with अ,आ  matra.

Kriya (Verb) 2 - Classes 1,2,3

 When we start introducing Kriya (Verb) at the Preparatory or The

 primary level, then the first and foremost is to tell them the meaning

 of the word with some examples so that they remember the term

 while relating to it.

Initially, we must just teach them the action words with the help of pictures and matching/fill in the blanks sentences.

It is very important to tell them that any work done can be measured in three different timings….. Work done - past / doing now - present / would do – future.

This way they become familiar with the basic three tenses – Present tense (वर्तमान काल), Past tense (भूतकाल) and Future tense (भविष्यत् काल).

The worksheets I’m uploading in this post is for classes 1,2,3. Parents/teachers can create more worksheets for their kids/students.

Your suggestions, opinions are most welcome. Happy teaching!

Kriya (Verb) 1 - Classes 1 - 6

 

The grammatical terms e.g, Sangya (uke)- naming words (Noun), Kriya (dke) – action words (Verbs). Visheshan (fo”ks’k xq.k)- describing words (Adjectives) etc …. should be introduced skillfully because kids, in general, are scared of these formal terms of grammar. They should always be introduced in the play-way/practical method.

The basic aim of teaching any subject is that kids should enjoy the learning process, should retain the knowledge, and make practical use of it.

In the previous post on Verb (Kriya) for preschool kids, I had introduced some worksheets on action words. I’m sharing the link to that post below.

Hope it is helpful to understand Verb (Kriya) Do share your experience and suggestions. Happy teaching!!!!!
