Description: This unit of work uses the context of weekend activities to assist students in understanding and forming simple Tamil sentences. Students are guided to discuss what they did on the weekend and to describe their experiences using the senses (i.e. what they saw, ate and touched) and specific adjectives.
E.g.: I went to beach and created a big sandcastle. (நான் கடற்கரைக்குச் சென்று பெரிய மணல் வீடு கட்டினேன்). This example covers the vocabulary related to a weekend activity, uses the verb in the past tense, and add expressions using right adjectives.
