ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by the children in the class in their day-to-day lives is different from the language given in the text book. So,as a teacher we have to translate each and every word in the children's mother tongue for better comprehension. For example, storytelling is done using children's home language as well as school language. We also use and encourage to use mixed language of L1and L2 in the teaching learning process.
ReplyDeleteTeacher's in the rural areas has to faced many challenges. One is the languages that use in school. To make children understand each and every word from the textbook the teacher need to translate to their local languages and explain and also repeat every time so that children can understand and remember. Therefore local language is the language we live with experience since birth. And textbook language is the language we need to learn in school.

ReplyDeleteIn the day to day lives, the language spoken by the students is different from the language of the textbook, as students speak with their own mother tongue while the language used in the textbook is English. So, to make the students understand the language of the textbook, we have to translate it into their mother tongue.
ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by the children and the language on textbook are usually different as children speak in their native tongue whereas textbooks are in English as ours is an English medium school. Children do find it challenging to study a foreign language initially but with their exposure to the language through T.V, internet or even friends or acquaintances, they do pick up the language quite well.
ReplyDeleteHowever, children should also be encouraged to speak and learn their native language as well, so as to ingrain in them their sense of identity.

The language spoken by the children in class in their day to day lives is different from the language given in the text book.So as a teacher we have to revise the text book and then we have to translate into our own mother tongue or local language in every sentences for good and better comprehension and give a detail in every word from the text. However children should be encouraged to use the dictionary to learn the meanings. Therefore local language is the language we live with experience since birth and text book language is the language we need to learn in schools.
ReplyDeleteLanguage used in textbooks are mainly common language which is totally different from the language spoken by the children in their day to day lives. Children especially in rural areas learn only local language because they lived only among themselves whereas in the town children received a platform to speak the language of the texts because of the mixed group of people. Teaching to the students who are getting the chance to speak the common language given in the texts is a big difference compared to teaching to students in rural areas in which the students speak only local languages. In such a case the teacher has to change the language into the medium which the students will be able to grasp and learn.

ReplyDeleteThere is a vast difference between the language spoken by the children in class with that of the language used in textbook,as children speak in their mothers' tongue whereas the textbooks are in English.
ReplyDeleteIt is not easy to teach the children as the both the languages are very different.
But by including the children's mother tongue during the teaching learning process it help them to understand, express,engage better and actively participate in the class..
Many children do not find their own language represented in their school and need to learn almost entirely through an unfamiliar language. Study estimate that around 25% of children in primary school face severe learning disadvantage due to the gap between their home language and their school language. Consequently these children end up learning in a language that they do not speak or understand. This prevents them from meaningful engaging with teaching learning processes in school, which are in turn lead to feeling of helplessness and low self esteem that effect their self confidence and identity which leads to negative impact on their academic performance.
ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by the children in our class with their friends and family in their day-to-day lives is a mother tongue language or native language in which children acquires from birth whereas the language that is use in the textbooks is a secondary language or non-native language which is learned at a later stage. Therefore it takes time for children to learn since they have to learn the language first and know the meaning of each words. Only after become familiar with the language children start take interest in the subject.

ReplyDeleteAlthough there is not much difference between the language spoken in the classroom and the one written in the textbooks , the evident distinction lies in the formality and in the level of complexity of the language used in the textbooks .The 8131996022 that is spoken between the teacher and the students , and among students is of a simpler kind with the main objectives to understand each other in the simplest manner possible . Textbooks on the other hand, are written in a more elevated kind of language with one of the aims being, the advancement of instruction and learning in all fields including that of language.

The language that the students mostly speak at home or with their peers are different from the language in the textbook.Infact language is not just medium of communication,but it is a tool for thinking, learning and understanding.

Children build an understanding of various concept by speaking and listening to others, reading, asking questions,arguing, logically analyzing working in groups or by even engaging in imagination conversation.

ReplyDeleteThe children in my class speak their mother tongue while textbooks are in English. For example we teach English grammar and the textbooks are in English. While learning from the text we have to use the textbook language but the children find it very hard to understand and it is difficult for the teachers to keep them engage in the lesson. Sometimes they just share at what was said as they cannot connect themselves to what was being taught or convey to them.
ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by the student in their day to day lives is different from the language that is in the textbook because at home the students talk with their own mother tongue language and in school we have to teach them according to the textbooks which is very tough especially in village areas. We have to make them understand either by translating or by making them understand through actions and activities .
ReplyDeleteIn most urban schools, textbooks in English language are introduced right from the start of schooling. English is a foreign language which is totally different from local Indian languages. This, in itself, has already become a burden for learners who have just started school.
ReplyDeleteLet us take an example of a student named Little ‘xyz’ from the suburb who had just cleared Class IV and is enrolled in Class V of an urban school. Coming from a school where local language is taught in most subjects, Little ‘xyz’ has to get used to English which is taught in nearly all the subjects. Learning for this child will take much longer time as compared to his/her counterparts who are already getting used to English language. He/She may suffer low grades which may hamper progress in the long run. Even communicating with peers and teachers will be a problem since a language barrier exists between them. Speaking, reading and writing skills will be much affected if not properly handled by a competent teacher.

Children have difficulty to grasp language given in the textbook,they have to translate word by word in different language. The teacher need to explain by using sign and symbols and by repeating everytime so that the children can learn and understand.
ReplyDeleteLanguage enables students to play an active role in various communities of learners within and beyond the classroom. As students speak, write, and represent, they also listen to, read, and view the ideas and experiences of others.A language textbook is not merely a collection of texts drawn from different genres; it reflects a particular pedagogic point of view arrived at by the textbook designers after taking into account the broad educational objectives that inform the curriculum
ReplyDeleteThe students in my class converse amongst themselves using different dialects.It is thus different from the one used in textbooks.At times it is very difficult for some students to use the right words and pronounce correctly the language used in textbook. Sometimes, they even use their spoken dialect in their classroom written activities and even in examination.This has become a challenging task for teachers in assessing the progress of students.
ReplyDeleteThe language in the text is different from the language spoken by the students. The students speak the language of their own villages. Most of them find it difficult to understand the language in the text books. So to bridge the gap,teachers translate the difficult words to the language they understand. However,the students try to communicate and understand the they can. They are also encouraged to speak the language written in their text books.
ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by the children in the class in their day-to-day lives is different from the language given in the textbook as children mostly speaking their local language or their mother tongue. Inorder to make them understand on what we teach we need to translate the words written in the textbook and then explained it to them in the language they could understand and in this way it will help the child learn the topic easier with understanding.

ReplyDeleteAs the school is in village area so the language which the student speak is very different from the textbook and they find it difficult as they are still small specially to students who just started school they find it difficult to understand as their textbook is in English but their day to day lives language they spoke is not in English.
ReplyDeleteAs we all know, mother tongue is the language which we are all comfortable with. It is the language that is being taught to us from an early age and we also speak in that language. So I've seen children in my class mostly interacting in their mother tongue with their peers except if they come from a different community speaking a different language then they communicate in English. Since the medium of instruction in our school is English, the textbooks are also in English. Children do also speak in English and understand it but difficult words from the textbook need to be explained to them in a simpler manner.
ReplyDeleteThe language that the children speak or communicate is different from the text books languages because there are many words of which the meaning is totally different. I taught in the Lower Primary section and the language in the textbook is written either in khasi or English if we took few example the word 'kait' in khasi mean banana whereas in our local language it mean scissor so it create a confusion in the mind of the students of whether the right answer is banana or scissor.

ReplyDeleteTeachers and students use spoken and written language to communicate with each other to present tasks engage in learning process, present academic content assess learning display knowledge and skills and build classroom life.
ReplyDeleteThrough my experience,this manifests in the form of incorrect pronunciation.Guesswork or vagueness of the correct form of a word or sentence,or a general ineptness of the language could be the reason of mispronunciation.The teacher is seen as a model for correct speaking in class in their day to day interaction with children.
ReplyDeleteThe language spoken by children's day to day lives is different from the language that it has written in textbook.
ReplyDeleteIn day to day lives they can speak in home language but in books it has written in standard language as in khasi or English language because spoken is different from written because written have to know the rules of grammar.
