Abstract:
Elementary education is the foundation of progress of any nation. This is the first step, only by successfully crossing which can a nation reach its desired goal. The National Education Policy 1986 and its modified form 1992 have also given priority to primary school level education. The entire country is striving to achieve the objectives of this level of education. Under the District Elementary Education Programme, various types of efforts are being made for the qualitative development of elementary education. In order to increase the achievement level of students, special emphasis is being laid on changing the curriculum, making textbooks according to the new curriculum, changing the teaching process, changing the methods of evaluation and teacher training. With the efforts mentioned above, it is expected that the achievement level of all the children studying at the primary level should be satisfactory in all subjects.
Therefore, if we want to bring qualitative improvement in the education of primary level students, then first of all we have to strengthen their language skills which are the means of exchange of ideas, which is the basis of all the subjects and also of most of the knowledge creation. Without language, thought regulation is impossible. And in a Hindi multilingual country like India, it is absolutely necessary to give importance to the official language Hindi in the teaching and learning process and make the students proficient as mother tongue or second language. For this, teachers will have to make efforts to strengthen the literary and grammatical knowledge of Hindi among the students in an interesting manner and increase their interest towards the Hindi language.
