Preface IMAX partners with schools, supporting them with learning materials and processes that are all crafted to work together as an interconnected system to drive learning. IMAX presents the latest version of the Passport series – updated and revised after considering the perceptive feedback and comments shared by our experienced reviewers and users. Designed specifically for CBSE schools, the Passport series endeavours to be faithful to the spirit of the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2005. Therefore, our books strive to ensure inclusiveness in terms of gender and diversity in representation, catering to the heterogeneous Indian classroom. NCF 2005 asserts that listening, speaking, reading and writing (LSRW) are all generalised skills, and students’ mastery over them is key to success at school. All these skills frequently need to be used together. Therefore, the Passport English textbooks and workbooks strive to provide adequate opportunities for students to practise all the four LSRW skills. To this effect, the Passport English textbooks and workbooks for CBSE schools offer the following features: T hemes recommended by the NCF across grades 1–5 in the literature pieces Samples of Indian writing in English as well as popular English literature pieces from western countries P ictures for word meanings in each lesson to help students with visual clues for new or difficult words Non-detailed lessons to enable additional reading A speaking project and two reading comprehension passages in each unit to further hone speaking and reading skills Horizontal and vertical progression across grades for the grammar concepts covered in the workbooks, providing a spiral of cumulative learning S amples of format-based writing to provide for scaffolding of learning of formal writing Overall, the IMAX Passport English textbooks, workbooks and teacher companion books aim to generate greater engagement with and enhance fluency in English language communication and empower students to develop a genuine appreciation of the language and its literature. – The Authors NR_BGM_9789388402606 PASSPORT G03 ENGLISH WORKBOOK PART 1_Text.pdf 2 11/23/2018 10:07:45 AM

5 I Write: Creative Writing Descriptive writing If you had to describe a watermelon to somebody without telling them the name of the fruit, how would you do it? Picture the fruit in your mind. What does it look like? What colour is it? How big is it? Does it have seeds? How does it taste? When you use words to describe a person, thing or place in detail, it helps others to see exactly what you are seeing. Read the description of the park shown in the picture. This is a park in a big city. It has many trees and bushes. The trees have leaves of various colours—green, yellow and brown. There is a small pond, near a path in the park. People use this path for their walks and to do exercise, every morning and evening. There are benches in the park, where people can sit when they are tired. Lamp posts stand at the sides of this path to light the way in the evening. It is a peaceful and quiet place. Did the description help you picture the park in your mind? Now, can you describe a place that you have been to? 34 11/23/2018 10:07:47 AM NR_BGM_9789388402606 PASSPORT G03 ENGLISH WORKBOOK PART 1_Text.pdf 38
