Std- 12 th English- The List of Activities

Hi… Dear Friends,
 We all definitely know that the coursebook in English Std.Xl & Xll has focused on student's ability to comprehened
English and skillfully use his linguistic ability to express in English. Today, a very vital change that has been introduced
is that a series of questions have been substituted and replaced by various activities. It would enables the evaluator to
test the learner’s comprehension skills even without the learners realizing that he is being tasted. So the changes that
are being bought about are to make the teachers more creative and to give the liberty to innovate with activities and to
go behind the wh-questions.
Activity based teaching and learning is a new concept introduced right from primary classes .This need to be continued
further at +2stage. Activity based learning has given break to the overuse of wh- questions. An activity is a piece of
classroom work that involves learners in comprehending, manipulating, producing or interacting in the target language.
