About the Book

This NCERT Practice Workbook has been carefully designed to align with the newly introduced NCERT textbook Mridang for Class 2, in accordance with the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2023. It also follows the guiding principles of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, ensuring a comprehensive and engaging learning experience for young learners.

The primary objective of language learning is to empower students to express themselves clearly, effectively, and creatively. To support this aim, the workbook adopts a skill-based approach, focusing on the four essential language skills—Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. The content is thoughtfully structured to reinforce classroom learning and offer students meaningful opportunities for practical application.

Each chapter in this workbook complements the corresponding chapter in the NCERT textbook and includes a diverse range of exercises to build language proficiency. These tasks are designed to enhance critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and creativity, fostering an enjoyable and holistic learning experience.
