WRITING

I. If you are asked to choose from any one of these toys which one do you choose? Give reasons.(plastic toys, wooden toys, clay toys, metallic toys)

I would choose clay toys. Plastic toys and metallic toys are non biodegradable. When broken they remain in the soil for hundreds of years and cause land pollution. Wooden toys look beautiful. But cutting trees to make toys leads to deforestation. So I can avoid it. Clay toys come in different colours. They can be moulded to any shape easily. They don't cause land pollution. So I would like to choose clay toys.

J. Your friend has presented a beautiful art piece on your birthday. Write a letter to her appreciating her art work.

My dear Janani,

I received the beautiful model of Taj Mahal sent by you. It is a wonderful birthday gift. It looks artistic and amazing. I am delighted to keep it on my table. Whenever I see it I remember you. It reminds me of your love and affection. I thank you for your beautiful gift.

With warmest thanks.

                                                                                               Yours lovingly,

CREATIVE WRITING

K. You have prepared some eco-friendly craft materials like paper matche dolls, greeting cards, book marks, festoons, garlands, quilling jewellery etc for an Art Mela to be conducted in you school premises. Describe in a few sentences how you made the craft work. Include the following details in your writing.

• Name of the craft work

• Materials used

• Nature (handy / eco-friendly, longlasting / affordable price )

• Use (place / person / time)

I made a beautiful garland of flowers for the Art Mela. I used papers in different colours. Using scissors, glue and thread I made flowers of different colours. I also made rings to join them. The materials used by me were handy and eco-friendly as they had no plastics. They are long lasting. These garlands can be made by anyone at affordable price. We can use these garlands at home, schools and offices. Any one can use such garlands to celebrate functions like birthday parties or festivals. The garlands look attractive and amazing.
