Q1Consider the following statements about chitra-varta in a Class 2 Hindi period: (1) Chitra-varta begins with children's free talk about a picture in their home dialect or in Hindi. (2) The teacher can use chitra-varta to introduce new Hindi vocabulary inside a meaningful context. (3) Chitra-varta should always be replaced by silent copying once children can recognise letters. (4) A picture is most effective when it shows a scene the children themselves have lived or seen. Which combination of statements is correct?

A 1, 2 and 4 only
B 1, 3 and 4 only
C 2, 3 and 4 only
D 1, 2 and 3 only
Explanation

Chitra-varta begins with children's free talk about a picture in their home dialect or in Hindi (1 correct), it lets the teacher introduce new Hindi vocabulary inside a meaningful context (2 correct), and it works best when the picture shows a scene the children themselves have lived or seen (4 correct). Statement 3 is wrong because chitra-varta is not replaced by silent copying once letters are recognised; oral meaning-making continues alongside writing throughout primary Hindi.

Q2Match each Hindi-teaching method in List I with its primary classroom focus in List II. List I: (1) Paramparik vidhi (2) Sanrachnatmak vidhi (3) Sampreshanatmak vidhi (4) Samagra-bhasha vidhi List II: (P) Real communication tasks where children use Hindi for a purpose (Q) Whole meaning, story and print-rich environment first, letters later (R) Drill of letters, words and grammar rules in fixed order (S) Controlled patterns and structures practised step by step

A 1-R, 2-S, 3-P, 4-Q
B 1-Q, 2-P, 3-S, 4-R
C 1-S, 2-R, 3-Q, 4-P
D 1-P, 2-Q, 3-R, 4-S
Explanation

Paramparik vidhi drills letters, words and grammar in a fixed order, so it pairs with R. Sanrachnatmak vidhi practises controlled patterns and sentence structures step by step, so it pairs with S. Sampreshanatmak vidhi puts the child in real communication tasks, so it pairs with P. Samagra-bhasha vidhi starts from whole meaning, story and print-rich environment, so it pairs with Q. The other options pair these methods with the wrong focus.

Q3Read the two statements about Rajasthani, Mewari and Marwari in a primary Hindi classroom and pick the correct option. Statement I: NCF 2005 treats the child's home dialect as a resource that the teacher can use to scaffold school Hindi. Statement II: A teacher who allows children to first explain a story in Marwari and then retell it in Hindi is following the multilingual classroom principle.

A Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect
B Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
C Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is correct
D Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
Explanation

NCF 2005 explicitly frames the home dialect as a resource, not a barrier, so Statement I is correct. The multilingual classroom principle asks teachers to begin from a familiar language and bridge into school Hindi, which is exactly what the Marwari-then-Hindi retell move does, so Statement II is also correct. Therefore both statements are correct, which is option B.

Q4From the following list, how many items are commonly used age-appropriate Hindi-teaching materials at the primary stage in Rajasthan: kahani-kathan picture cards, chitra-varta charts, bal-kavita and song books, kathputli, advanced Sanskrit grammar manuals, Class 9 board exam papers?

A Four
B Three
C Five
D Two
Explanation

Kahani-kathan picture cards, chitra-varta charts, bal-kavita and song books, and kathputli are all commonly used age-appropriate primary Hindi materials, giving four items. Advanced Sanskrit grammar manuals and Class 9 board exam papers are not primary-stage Hindi materials. Therefore the count is four, which is option A.

Q5Which of the following is NOT an age-appropriate teaching-learning material for a primary Hindi classroom in Classes 1 to 5?

A A picture-card set for kahani-kathan based on a familiar village scene
B A bal-kavita and song chart with rhyming words and simple actions
C A long printed essay on advanced Hindi grammar terminology with no illustrations
D A simple kathputli pair the teacher uses to retell a moral story aloud
Explanation

Picture cards for kahani-kathan, bal-kavita and song charts, and kathputli retelling are all age-appropriate, oral-meaning-first materials for Classes 1 to 5. A long printed essay on advanced Hindi grammar terminology with no illustrations is not age-appropriate at the primary stage because it ignores oral, visual and concrete experience and assumes a literacy level beyond Classes 1 to 5.

Assertion (A): A primary Hindi teacher should accept a child's first response to a story in Mewari before asking for a Hindi retelling.

AA and R both true; R correctly explains A

CA is true while R is false on policy grounds
DA is false while R is true on policy grounds
