Headlines Vocab by Lalji Daniel
Consolidated and organised by Nishad Abdulkareem
It was Sophia teacher who began reading the news headlines aloud ,recording and publishing the audio.Soon Lalji Sir and I also joined in and both the audios were published everyday with the script of the headlines in the blog and in our in our whatsapp groups "SPEP" and " Speak English Everyday since March 2020.
TWO YEARS AGO , On 1.8.2020 we began the campaign "AUDIOFEST AUGUST "(
https://ckrenglishclass.blogspot.com/2020/08/audio-august-campaign-to-make-you-read.html) for encouraging the student community to start reading the headlines aloud.THIS was the post we published which compelled many student readers to read the headlines and send the audio to our blog. The first audio we received was from ADARSH AK , GHSS VENGAD published next day .Then the next day on 3 .8.2020 came the audio from ANJALI B NAIR which was published the same day on the blog and in our whatsapp groups "SPEP" and " Speak English Everyday .I am glad to note that our stunet reader , ANJALI ,has been reading the headlnes since then without break for even a day.I would also like to point out that many students, parents and teachers have found this project valuable. Students of even 4th std to 12th std ,and those of the universities ,from various schools and colleges across Kerala and from some institutions outside the state , and even a few srudents from students outside our country used to send their audios and videos based on the news headlines every day. The work done by the teacher
JIJI KURIAKOSE and the high school students of GHSS KARTHIKAPURAM based on the headlines is also highly commendable .These audios and videos were shared through our whatsapp groups and the blog , ckrenglishclass .blogsot.com.Thus the project Headlines continues to be very meaningful and effective programme to improve our English, the way we speak and read English as well as our GK.
English Teachers can confidently make use of this blessing as I would like to call this carefully prepared resource which is unbiased and meticulously prepared - in the beginning of every class to make the students interested in the language ,to improve their vocabulary and get them acquianted with the day to day events happening around the world .
Let me congratulate Dr. Nishad, Lalji Sir and Sophia teacher along with ALL THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE PROJECT on the tremendous achievement of 1000 days of publishing the Headlines and I would like to add a suggestion that a few news items on sports achievemnets must be made a compulsory part of the collection every day.

1.This can be shown on screen in the class using the high tech facilities and a few students could be encouraged to read a few items .and the new words could be explained.
2.Students may be given these headlines in the student whatsapp groups and asked to read aloud , record and send them to the teacher.The teacher can suggest some topical corrections if required.Audios and videos of student newsreading can be shared with the student community through social media .
3. A copy of the headlines may be taken in print and posted on the news bullettin board in the class / reading corner in the school varandah.
4.Headlines may be read by a student in the school assembly every day /through the announcemt system/school radio after the prayer every day.
