Saturday Special

Dear friends,
I have started to teach differently on Saturdays. Friends, I don’t teach anything on Saturdays.In our school we I and my students keep Saturday as “no teaching day”.
I allow my students to speak about anything they like. They prepare a short note and present his or her views before the class. They are free to select the topic and I do not even check before they present it before the class. I allow them to make mistakes and I don’t even correct their mistakes at a time. Today I am putting the exact copy of one student’s speech. I haven’t corrected anything. Today 16 students spoke about different topics -- eco system – my mother- my country- my favourite teacher and so on. Here is the exact copy of what one student spoke about the importance of English.
Saturday Special

Name :- Sevra Nehal M. Standard 10th A

Today , I want to tell you about importance of English.
“English is an international language. Now a days, in higher education, whole study is in English and if we have not command on this language then we will have to face many problems in study and communication. Now a days all informations about new research of technology are published in English either by computer or by books and so that it is necessary to know English. Thus, English is important for our future and that will be done only when we all together will make concentration on this language”
Friends, now I want some suggestions from your part to make this venture a fruitful source for all the teachers of English.
And before I conclude let me share some msgs that I received and forwarded.
