The three pictures given for bridging activities are meant for classroom interaction in
order to equip the children to acquire basic language competencies and familiarise with the
primary discourses i.e., description, conversation and story writing. The transaction
process suggested is - whole class, group and individual activity. These pictures can be
used for writing descriptions, conversations and stories.

The teacher can also make use of some more pictures which have scope for interaction. The
teacher may refer to the teacher’s handbook for detailed process.
