This unit focuses on the personal introduction. After the completion of the unit, students should be able to introduce themselves as well as greet each other. Therefore, the teachers can form pairs and groups of students to engage them in communication. Before asking the students to introduce themselves, the teacher should demonstrate the language in use. Before the end of the unit, let the students practise leave-taking as well. In this unit, there is a song to introduce oneself. The student must enjoy it. Play the song and then let students insert their names in the blank. Then, a similar conversation has been presented. The series has also given a special focus on pronunciation. The pronunciation lesson in this unit is the first one. Here, students are to learn to pronounce the English alphabet correctly. The teacher should play the audio and ask the students to repeat the sounds for each letter. In the writing section, let the students write about themselves after reading the model text that has been provided. Script question 4 Narrator : Two students meet at school on the first day and introduce each other. Tek : Hi Tanu : Hello! Tek : What’s your name? Tanu : My name is Tanu? What’s your name? Tek : I’m Tek. Narrator : Tanu and Tek meet the next day as well and greet each other. Tek : Hi, Tanu! How are you? Tanu : Hi, Tek! I’m fine. How are you? Tek : I’m also good! Narrator : Now it’s time to go home Tanu : Goodbye Tek. Tek : Goodbye Tanu. See you soon. While working with this conversation, the teachers should tell the students that in the first dialogue the children are meeting on the first day for the first time. The second part is of the next day when they meet and greet. The third part is the time before going home.

Since this unit deals with things at school, teachers are suggested to take the students to see the different places at school and learn things. In the pronunciation section, the students will learn to produce two sounds – /æ/ and /eɪ /. Here, the teacher can provide more words for further practice. It is suggested that the teacher write the phonetic symbols on the board and put the words under the symbols. While doing so, it is good to use one-syllabic words. In the grammar section, children will learn to use articles a/an. First, the students will listen and read the words in the exercise.
