English for primary students (Phonetic )

 English is the global language now.Each and every person know to communicate  with English.To improve the English knowledge of a person,the basic learning is veey important.

Actually this article is vety important for the slow learners.Not only the primary students other aged slow learners also very important to know this article.Parents of slow learners also can study this article and teach their kids how to improve their basic knowledge.

Now let's see how to form this.Actually,most of the students in upper classes,they do not like to learn English.What is the reason for this?.The reason is they have missed their basic English knowledge.The primary kids have only the oral English until they come to grade 3.In grade 3 they get a three set of books.But they are unable to read the words or write as they do not have the basic English knowledge.

How to teach them?.

It is very easy if we teach the students the sounds of the letters basically.Then they will be able to pronounce words by using the sounds of the letters.The students can improve their writing also.Sime students in upper classes rhey do not know even how to write their names in English as they have missed the easy way.  

 As example - 

  • B+a=Ba, 
  • B+e=Be,  
  • B+i=Bi

I have seen some teachers teach their kids ,

B for ball > Though they use only the letter 'B' they pronounce it as 'Ba'.

But it is wrong.We must pronounce rhe consonant letters without the vowel letters.It is difficult to pronounce only the consonant letters.But we can pronounce vowel letters very easily.Therefore we have to add vowel letters when we pronounce the consonant letters.The students will make sounds using the vowel sounds and consonant sounds.Otherwise they will learn to write words without vowels.

Like- 

  • bnn for banana
  • ct for cat
  • Bd for Bed...etc.

Actually we meet such kind of students in classes.They do not know there should be vowel letters within words.Teaching this basic way is very important for students.

Learning English Through Listening

Steps to Improve Reading Skills

 Reading is one of the most important language skills. It helps us gain knowledge, improve vocabulary, and understand the world around us. Reading skills usually develop from easy activities to more difficult ones. This process makes reading simple and enjoyable. The first step in reading is picture-based reading.
