               The new books are produced based on three fundamental approaches namely.
               Constructive approach, Spiral Approach and Integrated approach
               The learner is encouraged to think, engage in activities, master skills and compe-
                              be 
          tencies. The materials presented in these books are integrated with values. The new
          books are not examination oriented in their nature. On the other hand they help the
          learner in the all round development of his/her personality, thus help him/her become a
          healthy member of a healthy society and a productive citizen of this great country, India.
                        to 
               The most important objectives of teaching language are listening, speaking, read-
                
          ing, writing and reference work. These skills have been given a lot of importance in all the
          language textbooks. Along with the inculcation of these skills, fundamental grammar, op-
          portunities for learners to appreciate beauty and imbibe universal life values have been
          integrated in language textbooks. When learners master these competencies, they would
             Not 
          stop studying textbooks for the sake of passing examinations. In order to help learners
          master these competencies, a number of paired and group activities, assignments and
          project work have been included in the textbooks. It is expected that these activities
          would help learner master communicative skills. Ultimately, it is expected that students
                                  I I
             master the art of learning to learn and make use of these competencies in real life.  Text-
             books for students X have a special significance. As any other new textbook they help
             learners’ master skills and competencies and at the same time there is going to be a public
             examination based on them.
                    The Textbook Society expresses grateful thanks to the chairpersons, writers,
             scrutinisers, artists, staff of DIETs and CTEs and the members of the Editorial Board and
             printers in helping the Text Book Society in producing these textbooks. A few works of
             some writers and poets have been included in these textbooks. The textbook society is
             extremely grateful to them for giving their consent for the inclusion of these pieces in the
             textbooks.
