Class 4 English: parents often ask
Which English book is used in Class 4?
NCERT’s new book for Class 4 is Santoor. Some schools still use the older Marigold. Check your child’s book cover, then pick the chapter above.
Are these chapter pages free?
Yes. All chapter pages and CALP’s YouTube videos are free.
My own English is weak. How can I help?
Use the Hindi meanings to explain each new word, then say the English word together. Ask the questions in any language. Your time matters more than your English.
How much time should my child spend?
Start with 15 minutes a day. A short time every day works better than a long time once a week.
