Week 3

Today we focused on adjectives. We took two words from the six that we learned last week, and then the children together came up with adjectives that could be used to describe those words.
We then translated the adjectives into Hindi, and then played games involving making sentences with the adjectives and the nouns.
The two nouns we used today were:
घर
फल
These were the adjectives the children ended up using for घर . Of course some of these adjectives are trickier, and I wouldn't expect the kids to remember these. But the idea is to make the students more comfortable forming sentences, and to try to expand their vocabulary with some basic words (note: we learned how to say the words, we didn't do spelling or writing or reading):
हरा , गुलाबी, बैंगनी, काला , सफ़ेद , अजीब , डरावनी , नारंगी , नीला , लाल, बड़ा , छोटा , पीला

For फल the children chose the following adjectives:
खट्टा , मीठा , अच्छा , खराब/बुरा , स्वादिष्ट , रसभरा

For homework I am asking the students to do the first 3 pages in their workbook. Many of them already completed most of the homework at the end of class.
Also please encourage them to make sentences with the 6 words from last week (see week 2 blog post for a reminder), but now incorporating adjectives if they can (orally only. Written sentences will generally be for Hindi 3).

Next week, we will start words with आ की मात्रा
