Spotting a Good Lesson<\/h2>\n

What is the most effective \u092a\u094d\u0930\u092d\u093e\u0935\u0940 way to teach or for that matter learn \u0938\u0940\u0916\u0928\u093e Hindi? With the millions of apps, courses \u092a\u093e\u0920\u094d\u092f\u0915\u094d\u0930\u092e, books and videos out there, how do you pick the proverbial \u0915\u0939\u093e\u0935\u0924 needle out of the haystack when it comes to learning or for that matter teaching the perfect lesson. Here are some tips when looking for an effective lesson\u0938\u092c\u0915. It should have at least half of the elements listed below.<\/p>\n

It is the writer’s belief after years of curriculum writing that the most effective resource \u0938\u0902\u0938\u093e\u0927\u0928 to build a lesson around is the story. Everyone loves a story. And the more authentic \u0935\u093f\u0936\u094d\u0935\u0938\u0928\u0940\u092f it is, the more unforgettable.<\/p>\n

The Source<\/h2>\n

So, the first element is the source – the story, article \u0932\u0947\u0916 that is a story \u0915\u0939\u093e\u0928\u0940, movie, podcast<\/a> or book. The content should be in Hindi that is written by authentic Hindi language speakers\/writers for Hindi language audiences.<\/p>\n

Of course, the basic thing to keep in mind is the level of the content \u0935\u093f\u0937\u092f. The United States of America has the ILR scale which is rating scale from 1-5 of language \u092d\u093e\u0937\u093e: \u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0940 levels. 0 is no language while 5 is academic. Therefore if preparing for a state \u0930\u093e\u091c\u094d\u092f or government \u0938\u0930\u0915\u093e\u0930 level test such as the DLPT or OPI, keep that in mind.<\/p>\n

Most Hindi news stories are at a level 2 or 2+. Editorials tend to border at 3-3+. Check out this explanation of what this means at the ILR (Interagency Language Roundtable) website<\/a>. Once determined it is easy to plan the lesson.<\/p>\n

It is important to translate the target language article or story into English. This way, the student can always refer back to the transcription \u092a\u094d\u0930\u0924\u093f\u0932\u093f\u092a\u093f to get a backdrop of the story if they do not understand something. If using an audio or video then transcribe and then translate \u0905\u0928\u0941\u0935\u093e\u0926 \u0915\u0930\u0928\u093e. Many students are visual \u0926\u0943\u0936\u094d\u092f and need to see the script.<\/p>\n

Brainstorming<\/h2>\n

First, pick a brainstorming \u092c\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093f\u0936\u0940\u0932\u0924\u093e activity. This can be in the form of a video clip, picture or sound clip of the topic. Ask the student to bring to mind what they think the topic is about. In this way you can encourage activation \u0938\u0915\u094d\u0930\u093f\u092f\u0923 of prior knowledge. Ask them to write out or draw out their answers.<\/p>\n

Speed Read<\/h2>\n

Secondly, use a\u00a0 quick reading activity. Have the students skim the article \u0932\u0947\u0916 briefly, quickly to get the gist of the story without going into the details. This provides a story backdrop or background on which they can build. Remember that Hindi is spoken in many parts of India. To get the authentic meaning of the story understand \u0938\u092e\u091d\u0928\u093e which region it is set in.<\/p>\n

Navigate the Details<\/h2>\n

After this activity, it is time to start deconstructing the story to get into the details. Break apart each main detail and supporting fact. Multiple choice \u092c\u0939\u0941\u0935\u093f\u0915\u0932\u094d\u092a\u0940, true and false as well as match the columns are great activities to test comprehension \u0938\u092e\u091d\u0928\u093e. There should be at least 3 of these activities.<\/p>\n

Summarize it!<\/h2>\n

Finally, a summarizing activity to test comprehension. Deconstruct the main story into chunks and facilitate construction in sequential order. If the student can effectively put it together? Success!!<\/p>\n
