Writing


I. Diary entry

Imagine that you were one of the students who witnessed the humiliation done to Kalam in the classroom. Reflect on the incident and write your emotions in your diary.

II. In the lesson , Kalam gave a brief description of his heritage.

Kalam says," I don't recall the exact number of people she( his mother) fed every day , but I am quite certain that far more outsiders ate with us than all the members of our family put together."

This shows the heritage of hospitality and kindness.

Kalam says, "Events from the Ramayana and from the life of the prophet were the bedtime stories my mother and grandmother would tell the children in our family".

This shows the heritage of secular spirit.

Read the entire text and identify the aspects related to the heritage of Kalam and his village.

III. Here is a letter that Moses wrote to his friend Ravi from the United States of America. Imagine yourself as Ravi and give a reply.

St.John's Enclave,
5-7/9,
St.Pauls Avenue,
Washington D.C.
June 27, 2013.

Dear Ravi,

I am really excited to write to you after a long time. Hope this letter finds you in a cheerful mood.

Here is some good news for you . That means , I would like to visit India sometime between October and November and stay there at least for a month and would like to visit your place.
