Dear Students,
A most hearty welcome to Std IX. We are happy to place this textbook ‘English Kumarbharati’ in your hands.
English has been a part of your studies since Std I. So far, you have learned to use English for communication in most situations. You have enjoyed some interesting stories and passages in the previous textbooks. You have completed many projects. You have read the works of many well-known authors. Now that you are in Std IX, you will do all this and also learn to use English with a better understanding of the language and the way it is used.
English is not just a subject in your curriculum. It is the medium through which you learn all other subjects. A good command of the language will make it easier for you to study other subjects, too. Our main aim is to help you use English with confidence. We want you to be able to ask questions, gain knowledge and new skills, be creative, and spend your free time joyfully. That is why we want you to take part in all the activities and exercises in the ‘Warming up’ and ‘English Workshop’ sections with enthusiasm. Talk to your teacher freely about the problems and difficulties you face while studying this textbook. Many of the activities are designed to show you ways of thinking and learning on your own. The more you use them, the better you will learn.
We will be happy if you share your feelings about the contents of this book with us. We hope you enjoy studying it throughout the year.
Wish you all the best in your studies!
