A BOTTLE OF DEW ACTIVITIES - PART - II

In our previous article, we explored the components of a lesson, including the Gist of the Lesson, Moral of the Lesson, Let Us Discuss 1, Let Us Discuss 2, and Let Us Think and Reflect.

In this article, we will dive into the various post-lesson activities, such as Let Us Learn, Let Us Listen, Let Us Speak, Let Us Write, and Let Us Explore.

Let’s get started!

📚 LET US LEARN

1. Read the following words from the story.

( promised, spending, cheated, luck, remember, huge, difficult, market, )

Use the words correctly to complete the paragraph given below. There are two extra words in the box that you do not need.

There was a farmer who had a huge coconut plantation. He worked hard and did not depend on luck. Every day was difficult but he did not give up. One day, a man bought a bag of coconuts from him, and promised to pay him the money the next day. Days passed and the man did not pay him anything. The farmer felt cheated. About two months later, he met the same man and asked him about his money. The man said, “Oh! I had forgotten. Now, I remember buying coconuts from you.” And he paid the money.

📚 LET US SPEAK

शिक्षकों के लिए निर्देश

इस गतिविधि का उद्देश्य विद्यार्थियों को ‘s’ अक्षर के अलग-अलग उच्चारण पहचानना और सही तरीके से बोलना सिखाना है। नीचे दिए गए चरणों का पालन करें:

1. शब्दों का परिचय कराएँ –

( sage, promising, wisdom, trees, surprise )

विद्यार्थियों को बताएं कि इन सभी में ‘s’ अक्षर है, लेकिन इसका ध्वनि (sound) हर जगह एक जैसी नहीं है।

sage और promising – ‘s’ का उच्चारण /s/ (जैसे sun)
wisdom और trees – ‘s’ का उच्चारण /z/ (जैसे zoo)
surprise – पहले ‘s’ का उच्चारण /s/ और दूसरे का /z/

2. उदाहरण के साथ समझाएं –

बोर्ड पर शब्द लिखें।
हर शब्द को धीरे-धीरे और साफ बोलें।
विद्यार्थियों को आपके साथ दोहराने को कहें।

टिप: /z/ ध्वनि पहचानने के लिए विद्यार्थियों को गले पर हाथ रखकर बोलने को कहें। /z/ बोलते समय हल्की वाइब्रेशन महसूस होगी, जबकि /s/ में नहीं।

3. समूह अभ्यास करवाएँ –

पहले सभी विद्यार्थी एक साथ शब्द बोलें।
फिर 3-4 विद्यार्थियों का छोटा समूह चुनें और उनसे बोलवाएँ।
अंत में, 1-1 विद्यार्थी को शब्द बोलने दें।

4. सुनने और लिखने का अभ्यास –

कुछ नए शब्द बोलें जिनमें ‘s’ आता हो।
विद्यार्थियों को तय करना है कि उसमें /s/ है या /z/।
वे अपने नोटबुक में शब्द के पास /s/ या /z/ लिखेंगे।

गतिविधि के अंत में विद्यार्थियों को याद दिलाएं कि ‘s’ की आवाज़ हमेशा एक जैसी नहीं होती और यह अभ्यास उनकी स्पीकिंग और लिसनिंग स्किल को बेहतर बनाएगा।

उदाहरण के साथ समझाएं

बोर्ड पर दो कॉलम बनाएँ — /s/ sound और /z/ sound

/s/ Sound	/z/ Sound
sun	zebra
sit	lazy
salt	please
simple	goes
school	roses

Write the sound next to the word.

( beds, sand, clothes, sea, was, keys, bags, nose, )

beds – /z/ – (ज़)
sand – /s/ – (स)
clothes – /z/ – (ज़)
sea – /s/ – (स)
was – /z/ – (ज़)
keys – /z/ – (ज़)
bags – /z/ – (ज़)
nose – /z/ – (ज़)

2. Pair Work : Do a role play of the sage and Raman after Raman became rich.

Pair Work – Role Play – Script Example

Situation: This conversation takes place after Rama Natha has become rich through hard work in his banana plantation.

Rama Natha:
“Namaste, Gurudev! Your guidance has changed my life. Now I have a large banana plantation and a lot of wealth.”

Sage:
“I am happy to see that you worked with patience and dedication. That is the real magic potion — hard work.”

Rama Natha:
“Yes, Gurudev! Earlier, I was spending my wealth carelessly, but you showed me the path to work on my land.”

Sage:
“Remember, my son, trust not in luck, but in your own deeds.”

Rama Natha:
“Yes, Gurudev. I will continue to work hard and also help the people in my village.”

Sage:
“That is true prosperity. May God bless you more.”

Teacher Tip:

Let students act out the scene — one as the sage (with a shawl or robe) and the other as Rama Natha (as a farmer).
Encourage them to speak with expression and correct pronunciation.
