App 5: The Polyglots at the Circus

I have been learning Hindi using The Polyglots apps

Here are some of the things I have discovered in App 5: The Polyglots at the Circus:

This is a table that educators can use to share children's learnings with their families. It is a list of "I can…" statements. Each "I can…" statement has a scale that allows the educator to record how the child is progressing with App 1: The Polyglots in the Playroom.

The scale has three labels:

  • Doing sometimes with assistance
  • Beginning to do independently
  • Regularly doing confidently

The first line states:

  • I can name some body parts in Hindi. For example:
    सिर sir Head
    बाँह bāṆh' Arm
    टाँग ṭāṆg Leg
    पैर pa̅īr Foot

The second line states:

  • I can say some parts of the face in Hindi. For example:
    आँख āṆkh Eye
    कान kān Ear
    मुँह muṆh Mouth
    नाक nāk Nose

The third line states:

  • I can say something hurts in Hindi. For example:
    मेरेसिर में दर्द है! mere sir meṅ dard ha̅ī! Oh! My head hurts!

The fourth line states:

  • I can use some adjectives in Hindi. For example:
    छोटा chhotā Big
    बड़ा baṛā Small
