Subject: English | Class: 4 | Series: Leeds (SNC 2020)

Revision Duration

1 period (40 minutes)

Quick Recap — The Story (10 minutes)

Story Summary:

  1. Ali and Abdullah lived in a village near a forest. They played under a banyan tree during holidays — seven stones, swinging on roots, sitting on branches.
  2. The banyan tree was home to many birds and insects. It had tiny fruits.
  3. One Sunday, two strangers arrived at Suleman's tea-stall with iron axes, asking about the forest.
  4. Ali and Abdullah followed them and were shocked to see them chopping trees in the forest.
  5. Ali shouted "Stop that!" but the men told them to leave.
  6. The boys ran through the village streets shouting "Save our trees!" All villagers rushed to the forest.
  7. Hundreds of birds flew around the banyan tree. Monkeys, deer, squirrels, parrots, and owls were making loud sounds — it looked like a battlefield.
  8. The strangers were scared, left their axes, and ran away.
  9. The villagers appreciated Ali and Abdullah.

Who saved the tree? Both the brave boys (who raised the alarm) and the animals/birds (who scared the strangers) saved the tree together.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake Correction
Pronouncing "the apple" as "thuh apple" Correct: "thee apple" (vowel sound)
Pronouncing "the world" as "thee world" Correct: "thuh world" (consonant sound)
Confusing "mine" with "my" "my" is a possessive adjective (my book); "mine" is a possessive pronoun (the book is mine)
Writing "appriciate" Correct spelling: a-p-p-r-e-c-i-a-t-e
Confusing subjective and objective pronouns Subject does action (He ran); Object receives action (Call him)
