===== Unit 1 - Introduction to simple words in the environment =====
 +
Activity:  The teacher will introduce simple objects in the environment the students are familiar with.  For example, "What is this?"  Students may say "ಪುಸ್ತಕ" or the closest word in their language.  The teacher can explain "This is a book".  This is the phase in which the multi lingual nature of a classroom can be fully explored and used.  This can be repeated for a given number of objects or pictures.  Movement should be from objects to pictures. 
 +
 
 +
Once they have listened to the sounds, the teacher can do the reverse.  After they listen to the words, students can identify the correct objects.  The teacher demonstrates with one example.  "Show me the book"  And shows the book.  It is to be noted here that the word show is also introduced.  This can be done either by directly speaking or by playing the recordings of the words/ phrases and have students identify the associated objects/ pictures
