Chhattisgarh School Helps Class 1 Students Learn Hindi Quickly
A government school in Chhattisgarh is helping young children learn to read Hindi quickly.
The children usually learn basic Hindi reading in about 15 to 20 days.
Teachers first show pictures of familiar animals, plants and objects.
Then they connect those pictures to letters and words.
This helps children understand new words more easily.
Children also learn through games, dancing and other activities.
Teachers change their approach when a child needs extra help.
The school also teaches English and encourages sports, yoga, gardening and painting.
Older former students return to help the younger children.
