Q. 3. Read the following news item.
History becomes fun at this school
Mumbai : Students in the sixth grade of a certain school in Navi Mumbai love their history lessons
thanks to a novel teaching aid. It is not surprising given the fact that their study material includes
comic books and they use their textbooks for reference to put things into perspective. Besides,
students are encouraged to tap other sources of information as well. During History classes, students
pore over comic strips of historical periods, enact characters of emperors and tyrants, and have
animated discussions on the subject. History has become fun.
In the class students are asked to read the comic strip aloud, after which they break
of four, discuss what they have heard and write a summary. Each group leader reads his
summary aloud and the whole class jumps into discussion and debate, adding points, disagreeing and
qualifying points of view. A sixth grade student says, "It's a lot of fun because everyone gets a chance
to express themselves and the summary takes everyone's ideas into account."
According to the school principal the comic strip format and visuals appeal to students. A historian
feels that using comics in schools is a great idea. Comics and acting help students understand what
characters in the story are actually thinking.
