This chapter helps young learners explore the world around them through fun pictures, rhymes, and numbers. At the start, children look at a lively forest scene filled with wild creatures such as lions, monkeys, deer, leopards, snakes, and birds. By observing and discussing the picture, students learn the English names of different animals and talk about what each animal is doing.
Next, the chapter introduces numbers from one to ten through musical rhymes. In the first song, children practice everyday actions like polishing shoes, opening the door, picking up sticks, and chasing a hen. Another playful rhyme tells the story of five little monkeys jumping on a tree. One by one, the monkeys fall and bump their knees until none are left jumping. These songs help learners count backward and forward while enjoying rhythmic sounds.
Students also build their listening and speaking skills with classroom activities. They practice chain drills by reciting lines one after another and discover rhyming pairs such as two and shoe, tree and knee, and hen and pen. The Visual Memory Development Technique encourages them to remember and locate specific pictures with their eyes closed.
Finally, the chapter offers plenty of reading and writing practice. Children count mice, birds, fish, and other friendly creatures to match numbers with their words. They connect Odia numbers with English numbers from one to ten. Tracing and writing exercises help learners write figures correctly. Through matching games, subtraction-based counting riddles, and short rhymes, students gain confidence in counting and using English in their daily lives.
