IT’S TALK TIME -5

Book excerpt: Welcome to the fascinating world of English Conversation! The series ‘It’s Talk Time’ tailored for students from classes 1 to 8, is a journey of language exploration and communication enrichment. Our primary aim is to make the process of learning English conversation both enjoyable and effective, along with building a strong foundation in the language for young learners. The series has been integrated with the New Education Policy (2020) and the National Curriculum Framework (2023) focusing on the 21st Century Skills such as Communication, Collaboration, Creativity and Innovation, Critical Thinking, Information Literacy, Health Awareness, Social and Cross-cultural Interaction and Global Awareness. The books are designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of English conversation, beginning with the basics and gradually advancing to more complex language structures and contexts. Each book in the series offers a progression of conversational topics, practical exercises, and real-life scenarios that resonate with the experiences and interests of young learners. Our aim is to make language learning a natural part of everyday life, where students can apply what they’ve learned in meaningful ways. The series has been thoughtfully crafted to empower students with the skills they need to express themselves clearly and confidently. The accompanying audio resources, available online, are additional valuable tools to help students improve their listening and pronunciation skills. As we embark on this exciting journey, let’s embrace the art of English conversation and unlock the doors to new friendships, knowledge, and opportunities. We hope that the books will instil in students a lifelong love for the English language, and the confidence to converse fluently, express their thoughts with clarity, and connect with the world.
