A farmer had five sons __________ were strong and __________ always quarrelled __________ the farmer wanted __________ to stop quarrelling __________ wanted to live in peace __________ words of advice __________ not have much effect __________ called all his sons __________ bundle of sticks __________ break these sticks without separating __________ Each of the tried one by one __________ used their full strength __________ the old man separated the sticks They could break the sticks easily __________ farmer said __________ strong as long as it is tied up __________ will be weak if you are divided.
The Farmer and his sons
Answer: A farmer had five sons. They were strong and hardworking. But they always quarreled with one another. Sometimes, they even fought with one another. The farmer wanted his sons to stop quarreling and fighting. He wanted them to live in peace. Plain words of advice or rebuke did not have much effect on these young people.
The farmer always thought about what to do to keep his children united. One day he found an answer to his problem. So he called all his sons together. He showed them a bundle of sticks and said, “I want any of you to break these sticks without separating them from the bundle.” Each of the five sons tried one by one. They used their full strength and skill. But none of them could break the sticks.
Then the old man separated the sticks and gave each of them just a single to break. They could break the sticks easily.
The farmer said, “a single stick by itself is weak. It is strong as long as it is tied up in a bundle. Likewise, you will be strong if you are united. You will be weak if you are divided.”

Jack and Mona – friends since college – Jack comes back from Iraq War – acts differently – Mona suspects he is hiding a secret – hears voices coming from the attic – goes into his room – finds a strange apparition.
Mona was on the brink of a new discovery. It was true that she and Jack had lived together as roommates since university, but Jack was not the same anymore. He had served as a soldier in the Iraq War. But he was not a soldier; he was a surgeon and was helping his country in the War by serving the soldiers. Mona could see that he was a changed person. Even though everything seemed to be the same, there was something about him that made her believe that he was no longer at ease.
But what else could Mona expect? Wars did have the ability to change people. He had returned from the war ten days ago. And he did not greet her the way he used to, even though they had met after two years. He seemed cold and distant and had a burdened look on his face. His lucid eyes were now dark and gloomy. They seemed to contain a dark secret – as if he had made a secret deal with the devil.
Mona wanted to find out what was going on with him, but more than that she failed to understand what was happening around the house. It was as if a secret presence had completely occupied their one-storeyed studio apartment. She would find dishes where they were not supposed to be; there were noises coming from the dark attic above Jack’s room, and things around the house began to move. Sometimes she found the toilet soap in the kitchen sink, and sometimes her dresses that lay folded and ironed in her almirah were found hanging dry in the garden. And strangely enough, it felt like Jack never left his room. If he ever did so, he would come back running and frantically.
Something was up, and so one day when Jack was sleeping in his room, Mona went inside to find out what was happening. Clothes that had not been washed since days, empty water bottles and cartons of milk were lying strewn on the floor. Mona was disgusted and had walked out in that same exact moment when she suddenly saw a tall and lean figure making its way out of the attic. She screamed in fear and Jack quickly rose up. He switched on the lights to reveal a tall and lean woman standing between both of them.

The Visitor
I was alone at home that day. I was not expecting anyone to turn up either, as it was a national holiday. My parents had to go to my father’s house because of some emergency. They could not take me with them as they could not get another train ticket at such a short notice. I also saw it as an opportunity to relax and rewind. I was going to do nothing all day. There were not going to be any rules today. I would brush my teeth when I wanted to; I did not have to take a shower or go to bed when my parents told me to.
However, one hour into their absence, I began to feel uneasy. I felt like there was nothing much to do at home when they were not around. I had listened to music, browsed the Internet, and read all the newpaper articles that interested me. But I still found it difficult to pass time. Just then standing on the balcony, I saw a tall and light-skinned foreigner who was asking for directions from the security guard downstairs.
I wanted to go and help him, but then realized what my parents had told me about trusting strangers. A couple of minutes later, a bell rang at my house. I did not think twice before answering the door. To my utter amazement, the foreigner I had seen a while ago was standing right in front of me. Before I could ask him what he wanted, he just entered my house and sat at the sofa in the living room. He made himself comfortable, and probably that is when he noticed my gaping mouth.
He took that opportunity and introduced himself. Just then I noticed something strange; the guy looked exactly like me. He had the same features and the same face except that he was somewhat chubby. He had blue eyes, while mine were brown. We were the same age, in fact. His name was Peter, he told me. And then he went on to tell me how painstaking it was for him to find me. But why was he looking for me, I thought.
He told me that he had recently come across my photos on some social media group, and wanted to meet me in person to see if there was some connection between the two of us. But why didn’t he contact me on the website, I asked. He told me that he had always wanted to travel to India, and this was an opportunity to discover this exotic beauty.
I could also no longer contain my emotions and began to shoot one question at him after the other. We spent two hours talking about ourselves, our lineage, our grandparents, and everything else. No, we were not connected at all, except that we had the same face.

What is Story writing?
A story is an imaginary account about people or situations that is told for entertainment. Everybody loves to read or listen to stories. But writing them is not a simple task. In this chapter, we will learn the guidelines for writing a good story.
Components of a Story writing for Class 7
In Class 7, students are expected to incorporate certain key components into their story writing to create an engaging and well-structured narrative. These components are:
Theme: The theme is the central idea or message of the story. For example, it could be about friendship, bravery, honesty, or kindness.
Characters: These are the people, animals, or entities around whom the story revolves. Characters should be well-defined and relatable to make the story interesting.
Setting: The setting describes the time and place where the story takes place. It helps to establish the context and mood of the story.
Plot: This is the sequence of events that make up the story. A good plot generally includes an introduction, a conflict or problem, the rising action where the tension builds, the climax or turning point, the falling action leading to resolution, and the conclusion.
Conflict: Conflict is a crucial element that drives the plot. It is a challenge or problem that the main character must overcome.
Resolution: This is the part of the story where the conflict is resolved, and the story comes to an end.
Narration/Point of View: This is about who is telling the story. It could be one of the characters (first-person) or an external narrator (third-person).
Dialogue: This is the conversation between characters. It helps to reveal character traits and advance the plot.
Language and Vocabulary: The choice of words and language should be suitable for the story's context and understandable for the target readership.
Remember, while these components are important, what's most crucial is to let creativity flow and enjoy the process of story writing.
Story Writing examples
Title: The Wise Farmer
Once upon a time in a small village named Sundarpur, there lived a humble farmer named Ramesh. He had a farm where he grew a variety of crops. He was known in the village for his hard work and honesty.
One day, a terrible drought hit Sundarpur. The once fertile lands turned barren, and the villagers were worried. Everyone's crops started failing except for Ramesh's. His fields were still green and bountiful.
The villagers were curious. They wondered how Ramesh managed to keep his farm flourishing amidst the drought. Some were suspicious and thought he was using black magic.
Unable to contain their curiosity, they finally asked Ramesh his secret. Ramesh smiled and invited them to his farm. He showed them a simple irrigation system he had built which conserved water efficiently, allowing him to water his crops even during the drought.
Seeing this, the villagers were amazed and asked Ramesh to teach them his methods. Ramesh, being kind and helpful, agreed without hesitation. He taught everyone how to build the irrigation system, and soon, all the farms began to turn green again.
The villagers thanked Ramesh and learned a valuable lesson that day. They realized that instead of jumping to conclusions and harbouring suspicions, it's better to communicate and learn from one another.
Moral: Communication and learning from others can solve many problems .

These worksheets guide them through the process, ensuring they include important elements such as characters, setting, plot, and a clear beginning, middle, and end. Moreover, they often come with hints to aid in crafting compelling narratives. The use of pictures for story writing is also prevalent, as they can be a great source of inspiration. They help to stimulate creativity and encourage students to interpret visual cues in their own unique ways. Additionally, writing stories with a moral provides students an opportunity to convey valuable lessons and ethics. Story writing for class 7 is indeed an exciting journey that fosters essential writing skills and develops a deeper understanding of the narrative form.

“I don’t have any ideas!”
“I can’t think of anything!”
While we see creative writing as a world of limitless imagination, our students often see an overwhelming desert of “no idea.”
But when you teach creative writing effectively, you’ll notice that every student is brimming over with ideas that just have to get out.
So what does teaching creative writing effectively look like?
We’ve outlined a seven-step method that will scaffold your students through each phase of the creative process from idea generation through to final edits.
Use the following formats to generate prompts that get students inspired:
6. unpack the prompts together.
Explicitly teach your students how to dig deeper into the prompt for engaging and original ideas.
Probing questions are an effective strategy for digging into a prompt. Take this one for example:
“I looked in the mirror and I couldn’t believe my eyes. Somehow overnight I…”
Ask “What questions need answering here?” The first thing students will want to know is:
What happened overnight?
No doubt they’ll be able to come up with plenty of zany answers to that question, but there’s another one they could ask to make things much more interesting:
Who might “I” be?
In this way, you subtly push students to go beyond the obvious and into more original and thoughtful territory. It’s even more useful with a deep prompt:
“Write a story where the main character starts to question something they’ve always believed.”
Here students could ask:
Try splitting students into groups, having each group come up with probing questions for a prompt, and then discussing potential “answers” to these questions as a class.
The most important lesson at this point should be that good ideas take time to generate. So don’t rush this step!
A quick warm-up activity will:
Freewriting is a particularly effective warm-up. Give students 5–10 minutes to “dump” all their ideas for a prompt onto the page for without worrying about structure, spelling, or grammar.
After about five minutes you’ll notice them starting to get into the groove, and when you call time, they’ll have a better idea of what captures their interest.
Did you know? The Story Factory in Reading Eggs allows your students to write and publish their own storybooks using an easy step-by-step guide.
Now it’s time for students to piece all these raw ideas together and generate a plan. This will synthesize disjointed ideas and give them a roadmap for the writing process.
Note: at this stage your strong writers might be more than ready to get started on a creative piece. If so, let them go for it – use planning for students who are still puzzling things out.
Here are four ideas for planning:
A graphic organiser will allow your students to plan out the overall structure of their writing. They’re also particularly useful in “chunking” the writing process, so students don’t see it as one big wall of text.
These will engage your artistically-minded students and give greater depth to settings and characters. Just make sure that drawing doesn’t overshadow the writing process.
If you have students who are hesitant to commit words to paper, tell them to think out loud and record it on their device. Often they’ll be surprised at how well their spoken words translate to the page.
This takes a bit more explicit teaching, but it gets students to concisely summarize all their main ideas (without giving away spoilers). Look at some blurbs on the back of published books before getting them to write their own. Afterward they could test it out on a friend – based on the blurb, would they borrow it from the library?
Warmed up and with a plan at the ready, your students are now ready to start wordsmithing. But before they start on a draft, remind them of what a draft is supposed to be:
Remind them that if they wait for the perfect words to come, they’ll end up with blank pages .
Instead, it’s time to take some writing risks and get messy. Encourage this by:
2. share drafts for peer feedback.
Don’t saddle yourself with 30 drafts for marking. Peer assessment is a better (and less exhausting) way to ensure everyone receives the feedback they need.
Why? Because for something as personal as creative writing, feedback often translates better when it’s in the familiar and friendly language that only a peer can produce. Looking at each other’s work will also give students more ideas about how they can improve their own.
Scaffold peer feedback to ensure it’s constructive. The following methods work well:
A simple rubric allows students to deliver more in-depth feedback than “It was pretty good.” The criteria will depend on what you are ultimately looking for, but students could assess each other’s:
Whatever you opt for, just make sure the language you use in the rubric is student-friendly.
Have students identify two things their peer did well, and one area that they could focus on further, then turn this into written feedback. Model the process for creating specific comments so you get something more constructive than “It was pretty good.” It helps to use stems such as:
I really liked this character because…
I found this idea interesting because it made me think…
I was a bit confused by…
I wonder why you… Maybe you could… instead.
Now that students have a draft and feedback, here’s where we teachers often tell them to “go over it” or “give it some final touches.”
But our students don’t always know how to edit.
Scaffold the process with questions that encourage students to think critically about their writing, such as:
Key to this process is getting students to read their creative writing from start to finish .
Important note: if your students are using a word processor, show them where the spell-check is and how to use it. Sounds obvious, but in the age of autocorrect, many students simply don’t know.
Remember that the best writers write regularly.
Incorporate them into your lessons as often as possible, and soon enough, you’ll have just as much fun marking your students’ creative writing as they do producing it.

Here are 7 ways to bring creative writing to your classroom from teachers all over the world:
Stefan Chiarantano – Stefan has taught English in Taiwan, Japan and China for several years and in his hometown of Toronto, Canada.
To make learning English fun for my students I would bring in a bag of props that I could incorporate into my lessons. My bag of tricks included CDs of children’s songs, chants and pop music. I would use a chant with Total Physical Response (TPR) to begin a class with young learners or a pop song with adolescent junior high school students as a means to teach idioms, vocabulary or grammar. My bag also included puppets, which allowed me to teach target language such as greetings by acting out a dialogue skit with the puppets. I varied my voice for the puppets and soon discovered that it had introduced another native speaker in the classroom.. . It included stuffed animals, which I used to teach prepositions of place. There were coloured plastic balls to teach colours but which I also used in playful activities. . As silly as it sounds, I would be lost without my bag of tricks. It has infused creativity into the way I teach but more importantly it has made learning English an enjoyable experience for my students.
Ezekiel Yerimoh – Ezekiel is a Certified Supply Chain Officer and the CEO of Tonell & Cole. He is also the National Coordinator of Quizzing Nigeria (a member of the International Quizzing Association – IQA) and the President of Knowledgefield International.
Creative writing can bring a spirit of adventure into the classroom. Thinking about an unusual, exciting and dangerous experience or event is not only a great way to widen the horizons of students but also to give them great exposure to new vocabulary. Moreover, students’ talents, gifts, skills, environment, background and personality will play a major role in its ability to function effectively in creative writing. Basically, students should be well trained to undertake the task of creative writing.
A good example of an unusual event is for one to imagine the sunlight when it is supposed to be dark or a wild animal that speaks like a human being. Students can become more engaged if they use their personality traits and experiences to come up with their own unusual events and then perform free writing based on the event, letting their stories becomes more and more unusual.
Tatyana Fedosova – Tatyana has a PhD in English Philology, and is Professor of English at the Department of German Philology of Gorno-Altaisk State University, Altai, Siberia, Russia.
My favorite written task for intermediate-level students is to write an expert viewpoint on a challenging real-life situation or problem for a column in a magazine, for example, how to behave in a new school. I like to provide students with a quotation of a famous person on some hot topic and have them write a short argumentative passage on it. I also have my students debate a proposed amendment to the constitution by writing a speech for the TV debates or write the presidential pledge for the elections. I find it useful to ask students to make up an ending to a story, to complete the beginning of a sentence, or to write a report about an exotic place that they visited or a cultural/sporting event that took place in their region. These tasks help to reinforce key concepts under study, develop critical-thinking, cognitive, and creative skills and have practical applications as well.
Peter Winthrop – Peter has been teaching kindergarten and primary school students in Shanghai, China since 2009. In addition to teaching he also assists in teacher training and mentoring.
Bringing creative writing into the classroom can be difficult, most textbooks do not focus on that part of learning another language. I like to start with Mad-libs, funny word substitutions. This allows students to have fun with the language and slips in a lesson on the importance of word choice. My big tip is to celebrate originality and learning language learned outside the classroom as much as using correct grammar. We want to show students they can use the language they have learned and can make their own sentences. They don’t just have to rely on the sentence patterns they drill in class.
I always base the Madlibs on whatever the lessons content is, so even while being silly we are practicing and using the lessons language. An example would be:
“Tim is going to the ___ because he wants to eat ___ .”
Student One will pick the location, say library, then Student Two pick the object, say books. That gives us the sentence:
“Tim is going to the library because he wants to eat books .”
The grammar is correct, the vocabulary is in its correct place but the meaning is silly, so everyone gets a laugh.
Amira Shouma – Amira is a certified ESL teacher in Quebec and Ontario. She is also currently an MA graduate student in Applied Linguistics at Concordia University.
I found the article “Activities for Writing Instruction” by Sharon M. Abbey a good resource for teachers in their writing classes. The author offered various activities to activate students’ sense of writing, including shared writing. With shared writing, the teacher teaches students writing by writing with them. The process of writing starts with brainstorming ideas in a shared writing session. For example, at the beginning of the session, a teacher can establish the purpose of the shared writing session with his/her students. Then, he/she brainstorms ideas with the group. Next, the teacher selects one of the ideas and invites students to develop it. At the time of composition, the teacher and students start writing together. Finally, the teacher and his/her students revise their text together. Shared writing helps students gain their confidence, build their motivation, and also enrich their ideas.
Anna Klis is an experienced English teacher and has worked for several renowned language schools. She holds a master’s degree in English from the University of Wroclaw and a bachelor’s degree in Film Production from the University of Wales, Great Britain.
Students (at least intermediate level) are asked in advanced by a teacher to watch a famous/popular film (or choose a chapter from a well-known book) and choose one important and meaningful scene. At home they prepare a short description of a continuation of the scene but the way they want it to be, so that it is completely different from the original, and they work on a new version that would possibly lead to a different ending. When working on such a piece of writing students are supposed to use newly-learned grammar and/or vocabulary structures to practice them. Then during the lesson they can guess the alternate endings or compare their versions to decide which one is the best and how it fits the original story.
Rachel Playfair – Rachel is a teacher-trainer and language coach working in Barcelona, Spain.
From time to time I like to use a short writing activity as a ‘Warm-Down’ end of class activity to help balance the ‘Warm-Up’ oral activities I do. One of my favourite ones is “Respond With Your Senses”: I will give students a sensory prompt (i.e. show them a picture, play them some music, put an object in a bag that they can’t see and let them feel it, let them smell something like peppermint extract), then students do free-writing about the prompt for about 3-5 minutes, depending on their level. I can also use the prompts to preview or review classroom topics. For further creative and/or collaborative writing activities, I will then put students together into small groups to combine and develop their paragraphs, which we can then share together or put up on the classroom wall. This activity can be adapted to a wide range of levels and ages as long as you make sure they have had previous vocabulary input.

Teaching English creatively can be one of the best ways to engage your students in what they’re learning, and make it more likely that they’ll retain information in the long run.
But, if you really want to teach creatively, it has to affect what you teach and how you teach it, not just what projects you include at the end of the unit.
In this guide, I’ll share 10 ways that you can make your lessons more creative, with fun activities, useful resources and more.
2. incorporate students’ interests into your lessons, 3. blogs for creative writing, 4. video games for motivated practice, 5. skype for real conversations, 6. celebrate student accomplishments, 7. spaced learning to better absorb information, 8. conduct classroom experiments, 9. encourage reflective thinking, 10. foster connections between students.

Play is fun and freeing. It allows students to get engaged with English in a low-stakes, entertaining setting. It creates positive associations with the language and provides the space for unique ideas or new questions to come to the surface.
But unstructured playtime can also devolve quickly into chaos. How can you incorporate play into the ESL classroom without the risk of wasting a class period? Here are some ideas for meaningful, educational classroom play :
Take advantage of the curiosity students already have by noting what interests them, what they ask questions about and what they do in their free time. Ask students what they would like to learn about, and take their ideas seriously.
Then, use students’ interests as a frame for teaching what you need to cover in your curriculum.
Here are some example ideas that you can use as a jumping off point:
But don’t stop there. Model curiosity for them. Give them the tools they need to ask questions and pursue knowledge by showing them how you do so in your own reading, research or daily life.
Highlights has some great suggestions for encouraging curiosity in kids .
Blogs can be a pretty motivating form of self expression, even for the students who aren’t passionate about writing.
Here are some reasons blogging will be beneficial to your students:
A lot of my friends who speak English as a second language say that video games were a big help in picking up the language. For many students, the motivation to beat the game helps them stay focused and gives them the drive to practice.
You can recycle your favorite book-focused exercises, like character analysis, plot analysis and writing about the world and culture of the game .
Progress journals are also an option: daily charting of what happens in the game and how many points were earned.
You’re probably already familiar with the popular video chat program Skype . But it’s also an excellent tool to give students real English conversation practice with native speakers .
If your school is located in an area with very few native English speakers, Skype lets them practice the skills you’ve been teaching without buying a plane ticket. You can ask some of your friends from the ESL world (or even other English-speaking friends and family) to donate an hour or two for Skype conversations with your classroom.
You can also encourage students to use Skype for individual language exchanges . Find out if your school has any relationships with other international schools, where students are learning your class’ native language and looking for speaking partners.
Celebration is a great way to support the successes of your students, and you should make room to celebrate often.
When you celebrate accomplishments, you help students see that they’re making progress and moving along the road to fluency. And when you point out their successes, they’ll be more motivated to reach for the next goal .
By celebrating your students’ accomplishments, they’ll feel valued, supported and freer to express themselves in English in the future.
A spaced learning plan takes advantage of the way our brains are wired to help us absorb information more quickly.
It’s a technique that was developed based on research about how memories function by neuroscientist R. Douglas Fields. The idea is to spend short but consistent periods learning and then reviewing new material to optimize the brain’s natural memory encoding process.
With the right formula, you can teach a new vocabulary set or grammar concept over the course of an hour-long lesson and know that it’ll be encoded into students’ long term memories. It may be hard to imagine, but below we’ll provide a sample lesson to show that it’s totally doable.
Say I wanted to teach a lesson on the differences between “would” and “could.” Here’s how my lesson might look:
They’re not just for science class! Fun classroom experiments can be an exciting, creative way to get students speaking and thinking in English.
Encourage use of the scientific method in which students pose a hypothesis and then design experiments to test those hypotheses before coming to a conclusion. You can have students write down their hypotheses and results in English, which can then get presented orally at the end of class.
Here are some ideas for experiments that you can bring into your ESL classroom:
Creative teaching doesn’t stop at coming up with new activities. Creative teaching is also about encouraging new ways of thinking, unique ideas and student-driven learning.
One of the best ways to do this is to encourage reflective thinking, or considering and analyzing the surrounding world and past events. For English learners, it means being able to learn from mistakes and decide what goals, practice habits and language tools will help in the path to fluency.
You can introduce reflective thinking in English to your classroom with a simple but effective activity . All you need to do is pick a recent lesson or project from your curriculum and ask students to list three things that went well and one thing they would want to improve.
So for example, if you recently assigned a book report, you might ask the students to list three things they enjoyed about putting together their own report and one thing about the process that could’ve gone better.
At the end of the day, teaching English isn’t really about vocabulary lists and grammar drills. It’s about getting students to effectively communicate in English. It’s important that your creative teaching methods home in on this goal if you want them to have a real impact.
Fostering connections between your students is one of the easiest and most useful ways to do this. You can help create a supportive classroom environment by making sure to carve out time in your lesson plans for group work and collaborative learning .
Pair students up with different classmates, always giving them a common goal. As they pursue their goals and then achieve them, they’ll develop mutual understanding and encouragement and will support one another.
This will create a safe place for students to put their English skills to use in a supportive environment that encourages creativity.
Teaching English creatively is much more challenging than including creative projects in traditional education methods, but it’s so very worth it.
When our students can think for themselves and express their thoughts, support each other and explore and evaluate their own ideas, they’ll be confident learners, speakers and thinkers in the English language.

2. practice writing in english every day, 3. choose a subject and write, 4. write more than one draft, 5. think outside the box, 6. you need a friend who can check your writing, 7. find a comfortable place to write.
Excellent writing skills in English come from constant practice and hard work. No one is born a great writer. It takes a lot of work and practice to learn how to write well in English, so if you want to become a better writer and develop your own writing style, it’s time to start practicing!
Anyone can become a writer if he is determined and works hard enough.
Everyone has their own reasons for needing to improve their English writing ability. Perhaps you’re already a decent English speaker and just need to develop your writing skills for work, or you need to write essays because you’re a student.
Maybe you want to host a blog about learning English, or perhaps you need to answer emails in English. Whatever the reason, whether you’re a native speaker trying to improve or someone learning English as a second language , Preply is here to help.
Also check out our ultimate guide to writing in English .
Here we’ll walk through some simple tips that you can apply now to improve your English writing skills.
Buy a notepad, notebook, or start an electronic journal. If you keep all of your writing in one place, you’ll be able to see how much you’ve improved your writing skills, and you’ll keep everything organised.
It’s important to write every day; by doing this, you’ll form a new habit. Writing in English daily will soon become natural for you, and it will help you master sentence structure, develop word choice, learn punctuation , and more. You won’t see improvement if you don’t set the goal of becoming an expert author. You’ll never write great stories and articles if you don’t try. As they say, practice makes perfect!
Don’t sit there for a long time thinking about what to write. You can write about whatever you want. Write about what you do, hear, or see; write about the news or make up your own story. If you still can’t come up with a subject, hit the internet up for ideas.
A draft is a preliminary version of written work. Sometimes your best work becomes even better when you take a short break and then make some revisions. When you reread (or rewrite) your work, you can convey the thoughts more clearly and even come up with new ideas.
“A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end… but not necessarily in that order.” – Jean Luc Godard
Also, use tools like Grammarly and Dictionary.com to flesh out your writing and check your English grammar and vocabulary as you write each new draft.
Don’t write about the same thing every day. It will soon become boring. Try writing the same story from different perspectives and in different verb tenses (past & present). Don’t write everything in the most obvious way. Be creative!
If you have a friend who knows English well and can check your writing work, you are very fortunate. Post on social media and see if any native speakers will help review your writing. When another person reads what you have written, this helps to generate new ideas to improve your writing. You can check everything you have written, or just the parts you have difficulty with. Usually, another person can find your mistakes more quickly – mistakes you did not notice because you looked at it so many times.
You should try writing in different places and at different times of the day. You might find that you feel more inspired at night, or it may be better for you to get up 15 minutes earlier each morning to write. If noise distracts you, try to find a quiet, comfortable place.
Experiment in finding the right environment that will help you formulate your thoughts and write in English.
And remember, writing skills are developed over time. The more you write in English, the better you will get, and the better your work will be.

Question: Prepare a speech about the ‘importance of kindness’.
Good morning/afternoon, everyone! My name is [Your Name], and I am in class 7. Today, I want to talk to you about something that has been on my mind lately – the importance of kindness.
Firstly, let’s think about why kindness matters. Being kind not only makes others feel good, but it also creates a positive environment for everyone. For instance, helping a friend with homework or sharing a smile can brighten someone’s day.
Secondly, kindness is like a ripple effect. When we are kind to others, they are more likely to be kind to someone else. It’s a simple way to make our school and community a better place.
Lastly, let’s not forget self-kindness. Taking care of ourselves, both physically and emotionally, allows us to be better friends, students, and family members. So, don’t forget to be kind to yourself too.
In conclusion, let’s make kindness a habit. Small acts of kindness can have a big impact on our lives and the lives of those around us. So, let’s strive to be kind every day.
Thank you for listening, and let’s make our school a place where kindness truly matters!

Ladies and gentlemen,
Good [morning/afternoon/evening],
I stand before you today to talk about something we all hold dear – friendship. We are born into families, but we choose our friends, and in that choice lies the greatest gift of life.
In the unit on relationships, we explore the intricate bonds we share with our families, but let us not overlook the incredible significance of our friends. A day without friends seems almost unimaginable, doesn’t it? They are the companions who stand by us through thick and thin, sharing both our sorrows and joys.
Friendship is not just a bond; it’s a lifeline. In times of trouble, our friends are the ones who rejuvenate our spirits, offering not only a listening ear but also genuine moral support. The laughter we share with them lightens our burdens, and the empathy they provide makes the tough times a bit more bearable.
So, let us cherish and celebrate the greatest gift of life – friendship. In our friends, we find not just companionship, but a reflection of our true selves. As we navigate the journey of life, let’s appreciate the unique and irreplaceable role our friends play.
[Optional: You can end with a quote about friendship or a call to the audience to reflect on and appreciate their friendships.]
In the unit on attitude, we uncover the profound connection between courage and success. As the saying goes, “ Experience is the hardest teache r; it gives you the test first and the lesson afterward.” Similarly, courage is the guiding force that transforms those lessons into stepping stones toward success.
Courage is not the absence of fear but the triumph over it. It bestows upon us the power to pursue what truly matters, empowering us to chase after our goals with determination. It acts as a catalyst, propelling us beyond our comfort zones and reinforcing our self-confidence. With courage, we come to believe in our abilities, realizing that challenges are not roadblocks but growth opportunities.
Success often lies on the other side of fear. It is the courage to face uncertainties, to take calculated risks, and to persevere in the face of adversity that leads to triumph. So, let us cultivate courage in our attitudes, for it is the compass that directs us on the path to success. Remember, the test of experience becomes a testament to our courage.
[Optional: Encourage the audience to embrace challenges with courage and turn obstacles into opportunities.]
In today’s fast-paced life, where time seems to slip through our fingers, it’s crucial to reflect on the often overlooked but essential aspect of our well-being— physical games and exercise.
Our modern lifestyles are marked by hectic schedules and sedentary habits, leading to a decline in physical activity. However, the importance of incorporating physical games and exercise into our daily routines cannot be overstated. These activities are not merely a means to stay fit; they contribute significantly to our overall mental and physical health.
Engaging in physical games and exercise is an antidote to the stress and pressures of our fast-paced lives. They enhance our cardiovascular health, boost our energy levels, and improve our mood by releasing endorphins—the feel-good hormones. Additionally, regular exercise is proven to enhance cognitive function, fostering better concentration and creativity.
In a world dominated by screens and constant connectivity, physical games provide a refreshing break and an opportunity for social interaction. Whether it’s team sports or individual workouts, these activities build camaraderie, discipline, and resilience.
Therefore, let us recognize the importance of prioritizing physical games and exercise in our lives. By doing so, we not only invest in our physical health but also cultivate a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle in the face of today’s relentless pace.
Good morning, respected teachers, and dear friends,
I stand before you today to shed light on a topic that holds the key to our overall well-being – the importance of maintaining a healthy diet. In the hustle and bustle of our lives, it’s easy to overlook the significance of what we consume daily.
Our bodies are our most valuable assets, and the fuel we provide them determines how well they function. A healthy diet is not just about watching our weight; it is about nourishing our bodies with the essential nutrients they need to thrive. It fuels our energy, supports our immune system, and promotes mental clarity.
In a world filled with tempting fast food and sugary treats, it’s crucial to make mindful choices. A balanced diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins, ensures that our bodies receive the necessary vitamins and minerals for optimal performance.
So, let us pledge to prioritize our health by making conscious choices about the food we consume. Remember, a healthy diet is not a sacrifice; it is an investment in our well-being. Let’s start our day by choosing nutritious meals that empower us to face the challenges ahead.
Today, I want to share some thoughts on a topic that is close to my heart – the significance of siblings in our lives . As Sameer/Siya, a seventh-grader, I believe that our relationships with our siblings are some of the most precious bonds we form.
Through shared experiences, we learn valuable life lessons and develop qualities like patience, understanding, and cooperation. Our siblings are there with us through thick and thin, celebrating our triumphs and providing solace during challenges. In essence, they are our companions on this journey called life.
We need to appreciate and nurture these relationships. While we may have our differences, the love and support we receive from our siblings are unparalleled. So, let’s take a moment to express gratitude for the significance of siblings in our lives. They are not just family; they are our allies, making the journey of growing up all the more memorable.
In the delicate balance of nature, there exists a profound truth – “ Nature has enough for man’s needs but not enough for man’s greed. ” These words, echoing the wisdom of Mahatma Gandhi, implore us to reflect on our relationship with the environment.
It is our shared responsibility to preserve the beauty and vitality of our home for ourselves and the generations yet to come. Sustainable living, conservation efforts, and responsible consumption are not just buzzwords; they are the keys to ensuring a harmonious coexistence with nature.
Let us embrace a collective consciousness that acknowledges the finite resources of our Earth. By fostering an attitude of respect and gratitude towards nature, we can strive to be mindful custodians, ensuring that the legacy we leave for future generations is one of environmental stewardship and not depletion.
Thank you.
Respected teachers, dear students, and honored guests,
I stand before you today to emphasize the crucial role that each one of us, as students, plays in the conservation of our environment . Our actions, no matter how small, collectively contribute to the well-being of our planet.
Firstly, let’s consider the significant impact of waste reduction. By being mindful of our consumption and adopting practices like recycling, we actively participate in reducing the burden on landfills and conserving valuable resources. Additionally, let’s commit to minimizing paper wastage by utilizing both sides of sheets and embracing digital alternatives whenever possible.
Conserving existing resources is another responsibility we hold. Whether it’s water, energy, or natural habitats, our choices matter. Turn off electrical appliances when not in use, as this not only saves energy but also contributes to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Let’s be champions of water conservation by using it judiciously in our daily activities.
Furthermore, consider the products we use daily. Opting for non-toxic cleaners and embracing biodegradable products ensures that our daily routines are not harming the environment. Small changes in our lifestyle choices can collectively make a significant impact.
In conclusion, the role of students in the conservation of the environment is pivotal. By incorporating these simple habits into our lives, we become ambassadors for a sustainable future. Let us be conscious consumers and stewards of this planet, ensuring that our actions today contribute to a healthier and greener tomorrow.
Respected teachers, dear friends, and honored guests,
Today, I am honored to speak about a topic that holds immense significance in our lives— the importance of grandparents . In the unit “ Relationships ” from our English Reader, we’ve explored the profound connections we share with our family members, and among these connections, the role of grandparents is truly special.
Grandparents serve as the living chronicles of our family’s history, offering a wealth of stories, traditions, and wisdom. Their presence provides a sense of continuity and identity, connecting us to our roots and heritage. In a world that’s constantly evolving, this link with the past is invaluable.
Through their experiences and anecdotes, grandparents become our storytellers, passing down not just tales of bygone eras but also lessons learned from a lifetime. Their unconditional love and guidance shape us into the individuals we are meant to become.
In a fast-paced world, where time often moves too quickly, the slower pace of a grandparent’s wisdom and affection serves as a grounding force. They are our pillars of strength, offering support and understanding during both triumphs and tribulations.
So, let us recognize and cherish the importance of grandparents in our lives. Their presence is a source of comfort, guidance, and a reminder of where we come from. Today, let’s express our gratitude for the love and wisdom bestowed upon us by these special individuals.
Respected teachers, dear friends, and cherished guests,
I am delighted to share thoughts on a relationship that holds a unique place in our lives—the bond between siblings. As explored in the unit “Relationships” from our ‘My English Reader,’ the role of siblings is truly multifaceted, encompassing various roles that shape our journey through life.
A sibling is not just a family member; they are a guide, a friend, a mentor, a competitor, and a teacher, all rolled into one. Growing up with a sibling means having a constant companion to share laughter, joy, and even the occasional squabble. They are our partners in crime, creating a treasure trove of shared memories that accompany us through the years.
Beyond the camaraderie, siblings often take on the roles of mentors and teachers, offering guidance and support in times of need. Their experiences become valuable lessons, helping us navigate the challenges of life. Moreover, the friendly competition between siblings fosters resilience and determination, preparing us for the broader world.
In moments of celebration or sorrow, a sibling is there to share the highs and lows of life. This unique bond contributes to the formation of our identities, providing an unrivaled support system.
Let us celebrate and appreciate the role of siblings in our lives. They are not just family; they are lifelong companions, enriching our journey with shared experiences, lessons, and, above all, unconditional love.
In the journey of life, two indispensable virtues stand out – experience and courage. As we explore the concept of courage through the lens of the unit on attitude, it becomes evident that courage is the dynamic force propelling us toward success.
“Experience is the hardest teacher; it gives you the test first and the lesson afterward.” These words remind us that life’s challenges are inevitable, but it’s the courage to face them head-on that transforms these tests into valuable lessons. Courage, in essence, is the catalyst for growth.
Courage provides the power to pursue what is important to us. It is the driving force behind our ambitions, propelling us to chase our dreams with determination. Beyond that, courage acts as a powerful ally, bolstering self-confidence and instilling the belief that we are capable of overcoming any obstacle.
Crucially, courage does not signify the absence of fear but rather the triumph over it. It is the ability to confront our fears and move forward despite them that leads to success. Each step taken with courage opens new doors and paves the way for accomplishments.
In conclusion, let us embrace courage as the guiding force on our path to success. It’s not just a virtue; it’s the key that unlocks our potential and turns aspirations into achievements. So, let courage be our compass as we navigate the journey towards a successful and fulfilling life.
Good morning respected teachers, dear friends, and distinguished guests,
Today, I, as [Your Name], wish to share a fundamental truth that resonates with the stories of achievers we have explored in the unit ‘Achievers’— “ Success comes to those who struggle to overpower their apprehensions, and the seed of achievement lies in the human mind.”
In the journeys of those who have achieved greatness, the common thread is not just hard work, endurance, and persistence, but the remarkable power of the human mind. The mind is the seed from which success sprouts, nurtured by determination and resilience.
Overcoming apprehensions is a daunting task, yet it is through this struggle that the foundation of success is laid. The human mind, with its incredible capacity for adaptability, innovation, and focus, becomes the driving force behind every achievement.
Hard work, endurance, and persistence are not just actions; they are the fruits of a mindset that believes in the possibility of overcoming challenges. The stories of achievers tell us that success is not an external destination but an internal journey—a journey shaped by the power of the human mind.
As we navigate our paths, let us recognize the potential within our minds. Let us strive to cultivate a mindset that transforms apprehensions into opportunities and obstacles into stepping stones toward achievement. The seed of accomplishment lies within each of us, waiting to be nourished by our determination and belief.
Good morning respected teachers, dear friends, and honored guests,
I stand before you as Namit/Namita to share a thought deeply ingrained in the stories of countless heroes in our nation – “ Disability does not mean inability.” The unit “Achievers” in our studies has showcased individuals who, despite facing physical challenges, have achieved remarkable success. This underscores a profound truth – the seed of achievement lies in the human mind.
Our minds have an extraordinary capacity to overcome obstacles, turning challenges into stepping stones towards success. The stories of achievers with disabilities teach us that with courage and determination, one can surmount any adversity. These individuals have not just broken barriers but shattered stereotypes, showcasing the indomitable spirit residing within the human mind.
The seed of achievement germinates when we cultivate a mindset that refuses to be defined by limitations. It blossoms when we embrace challenges with resilience and use setbacks as fuel for growth. These achievers exemplify that success is not restricted by physical abilities but is, in fact, a testament to the strength of the human mind.
In our own lives, let us nurture this seed of achievement by fostering a mindset of determination and courage. Every challenge we face is an opportunity for growth, and within our minds lies the power to turn dreams into reality.
Good [morning/afternoon/evening] respected teachers, dear friends, and esteemed guests,
I stand before you as Namit/Natasha to express the significance of a relationship that adds color to the canvas of our lives—friendship. Friends, truly, are the heartbeat of our existence.
In the unit “Relationships,” we’ve explored the dynamic connections that shape our lives, and among them, the bond with friends is unparalleled. Imagine a day without friends—a day devoid of shared laughter, comforting embraces during sorrow, and the joy that comes from having companions who understand us.
It is through friendships that we learn the art of empathy, compassion, and the joy of selfless giving. As Namit/Natasha, I encourage each of us to cherish and nurture these precious bonds. Our lives are enriched by the tapestry of friendships we weave, making each day brighter and more meaningful.
Respected teachers, dear friends, and esteemed guests,
In the mosaic of India’s cultural landscape, we witness a beautiful tapestry woven with diverse threads of cultures, traditions, and religions. Yet, amidst this rich diversity, there exists a peculiar and heartwarming sentiment that binds us all together—a recognition of our shared humanity.
Our unity in diversity is a theme resonating from the unit “Unity in Diversity.” It’s fascinating how, despite the myriad cultures and traditions that paint our nation, there is an invisible thread of connection that ties us as one people. This strange feeling is the acknowledgment that, beyond our differences, we are all part of the greater human family.
India, with its varied people and cultures, stands as a living testament to the idea that diversity is not a source of division but a celebration of unique identities coming together. Our differences are the colors that paint the canvas of our nation, creating a vibrant and harmonious portrait.
Let us take pride in this diversity and, at the same time, celebrate our shared humanity. Varied people, and varied cultures, but one humanity—this is the essence that defines the spirit of our incredible nation. Through understanding, acceptance, and unity, let us continue to cherish and preserve this unique identity that makes India truly special.
Good morning respected teachers, dear friends, and esteemed guests,
I am Avadhesh/Gouravi from class VII, and today I wish to speak to you about something that costs nothing but holds immense value—good manners.
In a world that is often bustling with activities, good manners serve as the foundation of harmonious relationships. They are not just a set of rules but a reflection of our respect and consideration for others.
At home, practicing good manners creates a positive and peaceful environment. Simple gestures like saying “please” and “thank you” contribute to a culture of appreciation and understanding within our families.
In the school setting, good manners create a conducive atmosphere for learning and collaboration. Respecting our teachers, classmates, and staff fosters an environment where everyone feels valued and heard.
Beyond the school gates, in our social lives, good manners are like a common language that connects us all. Politeness, empathy, and consideration make social interactions smoother and more enjoyable.
So, let’s remember that the importance of good manners extends beyond politeness; it’s about building a world where kindness and respect are the guiding principles.
