1. Write 10 words which are Sanyukta Akshar and that are 4 letters long and include 4 different letters (OK, three different letter is fine too). We discussed some words like ‘Nukkad’, ‘Chakkar’ etc. The goal is not so much to get the list but to pay attention and may be look for such words. I do not expect to see prefect homework but I do want kids to attempt. Also, I have told kids that this work may take whole week as they need to keep their eyes and ears open. Please help your kids and discuss this home work.
2. Bonus  Read Hindi story and tell about the story in 5 to 10 sentences in class. We will review this during hindi conversation time.

We started reading chapter 12 and then moved on dictation. Kids gave words which included half letters (Sanyukt Akshar) such as ‘Gussa’ or “Ganna” or “Chammamch”. We also made three teams in class to encourage kids to speak in hindi (The more you speak English, you get points and end goal is to get least amount of points.) Kids were creative in explaining things in Hindi but we will probably continue this game (and I will bring prizes for winner team)
