The plan stresses using Marathi continuously, while allowing English equivalents only for explanation, and designing lessons so students respond in Marathi even when they use some English words. It includes scheduled speaking exercises after prayers, word and sentence drills, student question-and-answer practice, guided skits and song activities, and show-and-tell themes that require participation.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":53,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/lifestyle/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/marathi-shala-speaking-teaching-strategies-for-encouraging-marathi-conversation/493149/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/marathi-shala-speaking-teaching-strategies-for-encouraging-marathi-conversation/493149.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"nayy☆","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-16","2026-10-01",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"How do the sessions ensure students feel comfortable speaking Marathi?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"They emphasize a golden rule: nobody laughs at students who speak incorrect Marathi or have an accent.

ON.  \nWritten by Sunanda Tumne  \n• The golden rule is emphasized that nobody makes the fun of students who speaks incorrect Marathi, has difficulty or has an accent. No giggles or no laugh. Students must put hand up who wishes to help him/her with corrected Marathi.  \n• Teacher must speak in Marathi all the time. Teachers do use English equivalent words to explain. Make each lesson such that students are giving answers in Marathi even they use some words in English.  \n• There is dedicated half an hour of speaking exercises time planned during each class after the Prarthana or Sanskrut Shlokas.  \n• I start with simple one word introduction such as lÉqÉxMüÉU, xÉÑmÉëpÉÉiÉ, zÉÑpÉUÉ§ÉÏ, kÉlrÉuÉÉS, WûÉå, lÉÉWûÏ, NûÉlÉ, xÉÑÇSU etc. I prose the question and they have to answer. This is also the speaking exercise at home. Make up a sentence and say it aloud together. Students ask each other questions and give answers. Repetition drill works best (increase from one word to two/three words)  \n• Gradually introduce the sentences. Example iÉÑfÉå lÉÉuÉ MüÉrÉ AÉWåû? qÉÉfÉå lÉÉuÉ ----AÉWåû. iÉÑsÉÉ MüÉåhÉiÉÉ UÇaÉ AÉuÉQûiÉÉå? qÉsÉÉ ÌlÉVûÉ UÇaÉ AÉuÉQûiÉÉå. WûÉ, WûÏ, Wåû, iÉÉå iÉÏ, iÉå. WûÉ qÉÑsÉaÉÉ AÉWåû. iÉÏ ÍpÉÇiÉ AÉWåû. Students are required to point and describe item in Marathi using WûÉ, WûÏ, Wåû, iÉÉå iÉÏ, iÉå  \n• Similar use of words and associated sentences such as uÉU, ZÉÉsÉÏ, NûÉåOûÉ, NûÉåOûÏ, NûÉåOåû, qÉÉåPûÉ, qÉÉåPûÏ, qÉÉåPåû, CMüQåû, ÌiÉMüQåû, QûÉuÉÏMüQåû, EeÉuÉÏMüQåû, qÉÉaÉå, mÉÑRåû, mÉsÉÏMüQåû, ÎeÉMüQåû, ÌiÉMüQåû, eÉuÉVû, sÉÉÇoÉ etc.  \n• Students are encouraged to ask five other students questions using who, what, why, where, how many, if then etc. Collect five answers and tell the class.  \n• Invite guest speaker (Aaji, Aajoba or a special speaker) to tell the  \nstory/presentation. This gives students a chance to hear Marathi from other person than the teacher. Show Marathi VCD of children's songs/story.  \n• I make up the story play at the end of class. The stories such as pÉÉåmÉtrÉÉiÉÏsÉ qWûÉiÉÉUÏ, oÉÑQû oÉÑQû bÉaÉUÏ, EÇSUÉcÉÏ OûÉåmÉÏ, OûÉåmÉÏuÉÉsÉÉ AÉÍhÉ qÉÉMüQû for younger group. We make out short skits based on Ramayan, Gandhiji, Lokmanya Tilak, and Shivajee for older group.  \n• A sing along poems using Khanjiri, Bean balls, Chipalya, Zanja make children very comfortable to sing Marathi songs/poems/bhajans.  \nCompiled by Sunanda Tumne  \nMarathi speaking June 17, 2010  \n• A show and Tell, A situation based theme, a group project based on animal, safety, seasons, newscast are the sure keys that each student participate in speaking. Older students do Internet search (disaster, volcano erupt, oil spill, Maharashtra Day, elections, migration of birds) and we translate the information in Marathi. Repeat and drill the sentences. That way they learn new words.  \n\n| Marathi Shala, Edison. NJ\u003Cbr>Written by Lata Phadke\u003Cbr>It was nice meeting on that day. I want to share following games.\u003Cbr>• Play Simon says ( Shivaji mhanato) game with Marathi action verbs\u003Cbr>• To understand numbers for older kids, game of number 7. Go around the circle counting numbers in Marathi when 7 ( saat) or multiple of 7 ( such as chouda, Ekvis) come say pass.\u003Cbr>• Play categories by giving different Marathi letter. Kids have to give the word in that category starting with that letter. Such as name of the river with letter M River Mississippi |\n| --- |\n| Marathi Shala, Morganville, NJ\u003Cbr>Written by Swati Goudar\u003Cbr>Here are 3 ways we have introduced in our school:\u003Cbr>1.
