The villagers also wanted the elephant’s help to fix the flagpole in the ground. They had already dug a hole in front of the temple.

The villagers were angry and they shouted at the mahout. Mahagiri could not stand the noise any longer. He threw away the flagpole. And the mahout was also thrown off. The people became so frightened that they ran away for their lives.
4. Mahagiri was now alone. He moved to the hole and went down on his forelegs. He put his long trunk into the hole and gently picked up a kitten ! The little cat had been hiding in the hole. The people had been watching all this. They now knew why the elephant had not obeyed the mahout’s orders. He did not like to kill the kitten. Mahagiri then placed the flagpole into the hole and held it straight with his trunk. Everyone at the temple gave sweets and fruits to the elephant. From that day Mahagiri became the villagers’ favourite elephant and the children’s best friend.

Answer:
There is a special school in Karagudi. It is special because it is not for children. It is for baby elephants. The elephant trainers teach them. Like our schools, they have a timetable. They learn, play, and eat according to this timetable.

Question (ii)
What do elephants learn in a special school?
(ହାତୀମାନେ ସ୍ବତନ୍ତ୍ର ବିଦ୍ୟାଳୟରେ କ’ଣ ଶିଖନ୍ତି ?)
Answer:
In special schools, elephants learn some words. For example, when the trainer says “jo-jo”, they come out of the water. They learn how to salute. They also learn how to perform puja in a temple. For example, they learn how to ring the bell of the temple. They also learn to offer flowers to God.

Question (iii)
Write how the baby elephants learn at the special school. (Part-5)
(ହାତୀଛୁଆମାନେ ସ୍ବତନ୍ତ୍ର ବିଦ୍ୟାଳୟରେ କିପରି ଶିକ୍ଷାଗ୍ରହଣ କରନ୍ତି ଲେଖ ।)
Answer:
At the special school, the baby elephants learn everything from the elephant trainers mainly through instructions, praises, and punishment. Learning starts with food. Elephants are fond of bananas and sugarcane. The trainer raises a piece of sugarcane over the head of a baby elephant. Then the baby elephant raises its head, to eat the sugarcane. At this time, the trainer says ‘salam’. He does this Very often. In this way, the baby elephant learns to raise its head when the trainer says ‘salam’ without giving sugarcane.

8. Mental Talk:

Elephants do a lot of jobs for men. But they suffer a lot for us.

9. Let Us Think:

Animals are born free. But everywhere they are in chains. Man is cruel to them. How?

Session – 1

I. Pre-Reading

□ Socialisation :
□ Teacher to think of a pre-reading activity.
You can link this with the main lesson: Why did Raghunath develop a script for the Santali language? Read this lesson Or you can ask the students to see the different scripts in the pages that follow and ask, ‘Can you say why scripts are necessary ?’
(ଶିକ୍ଷକ ଗୋଟିଏ ପ୍ରାକ୍-ପଠନ କାର୍ଯ୍ୟ ବିଷୟରେ ଭାବିବେ । ତୁମେ ଏହାକୁ ମୁଖ୍ୟ ବିଷୟ ସହ ସଂଯୋଗ କରିପାରିବ : ରଘୁନାଥ ସାନ୍ତାଳୀ ଭାଷା ପାଇଁ କାହିଁକି ଏକ ଲିପି ବିକଶିତ କଲେ । ଏହି ପାଠଟି ପଢ଼ ….. କିମ୍ବା, ତୁମେ ଛାତ୍ରମାନଙ୍କୁ ପର ପୃଷ୍ଠାରେ ଥ‌ିବା ବିଭିନ୍ନ ଲିପି/ଅକ୍ଷରଗୁଡ଼ିକୁ ଦେଖିବାକୁ କହିପାରିବ ଏବଂ ପଚାରିବ, ‘ତୁମେ କହିପାରିବ କି କାହିଁକି ଲିପିଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଦରକାରୀ ଅଟନ୍ତି ?’’)

II. While-Reading

Text

SGP-1
Read paragraphs 1-2 silently and answer the questions that follow.
(ଅନୁଚ୍ଛେଦ ୧ – ୨ କୁ ନୀରବରେ ପଢ଼ ଏବଂ ପରବର୍ତ୍ତୀ ପ୍ରଶ୍ନଗୁଡ଼ିକର ଉତ୍ତର ଦିଅ ।)
1. To start with, human beings had no language. How did they talk to each other? How did they say what they wanted to say? They did this through action and gesture. Even today we also use an action to say something. When your teacher puts his / her finger on his / her lips what does she/he say? She/he says, “Don’t make a noise. Be silent.”
2. Much later language came. Human beings used language to say what they wanted to say. But they did not know how to write. For many many years, they only spoke but could not write. To start with they drew pictures to write. If someone wanted to say ‘tree’, s/he drew a picture of a tree. But one cannot draw pictures of all that s/he wanted to say. Thus, there was a need to develop a writing system-letters, for, and scripts. Most of the scripts are developed from pictures. Pictures slowly developed into symbols. Symbols looked different from the pictures from which they came. Take, for example, the Chinese letter (symbol) which developed from the picture of a tree.

ଓଡ଼ିଆ ଅନୁବାଦ :
୧. ଆରମ୍ଭରୁ ପ୍ରାଚୀନ ମାନବର କିଛି ଭାଷା ନଥିଲା । ସେମାନେ କିପରି ପରସ୍ପର ସହିତ କଥାବାର୍ତ୍ତା ହେଉଥିଲେ ? ସେମାନେ ଯାହା କହିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଥିଲେ ତାହା କିପରି କହୁଥିଲେ ? ସେମାନେ ଆଚରଣ ଓ ଭଙ୍ଗୀ ମାଧ୍ୟମରେ ଏହା କରୁଥିଲେ । ଏପରିକି ଆଜି ମଧ୍ୟ କେତେକ କଥା କହିବାକୁ ଆମେ ଆଚରଣକୁ ବ୍ୟବହାର କରୁଛୁ । ଯେତେବେଳେ ତୁମର ଶିକ୍ଷକ ତାଙ୍କର (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) ଆଙ୍ଗୁଳିକୁ ତାଙ୍କ (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) ଓଠ ଉପରେ ରଖନ୍ତି, ସେ (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) କ’ଣ କହନ୍ତି ? ସେ (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) କହନ୍ତି, ‘‘ଗୋଳମାଳ୍ କରନାହିଁ । ନୀରବ ରୁହ ।’’
୨. ଭାଷା ବହୁତ ପରେ ଆସିଲା । ମାନବମାନେ ଭାଷା ବ୍ୟବହାର କଲେ କହିବାକୁ ଯାହା ସେମାନେ କହିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଥିଲେ । କିନ୍ତୁ କିପରି ଲେଖିବାକୁ ହେବ ସେମାନେ ଜାଣି ନଥିଲେ । ଅନେକ ଅନେକ ବର୍ଷ ଧରି ସେମାନେ କେବଳ କଥା କହିଲେ କିନ୍ତୁ ଲେଖିପାରିଲେ ନାହିଁ । ଆରମ୍ଭରୁ ସେମାନେ କିଛି ଲେଖିବାକୁ ଚିତ୍ର ଅଙ୍କନ କଲେ । ଯଦି କେହି ‘ଗଛ’ କହିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଥିଲା, ସେ (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) ଗୋଟିଏ ଗଛର ଚିତ୍ର ଅଙ୍କନ କରୁଥିଲା । କିନ୍ତୁ ଜଣେ ଯାହାସବୁ କହିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଥ‌ିବ, ସେ (ପୁ/ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ) ସେସବୁର ଚିତ୍ର ଅଙ୍କନ କରିପାରିବ ନାହିଁ । ଏହିପରିଭାବରେ ଲେଖୁବା ବ୍ୟବସ୍ଥା – ଅକ୍ଷର ଓ ଲିପିର ବିକାଶ କରିବା ଆବଶ୍ୟକ ହେଲା । ଅଧିକାଂଶ ଲିପି ଚିତ୍ରଗୁଡ଼ିକରୁ ବିକଶିତ କରାଯାଇଥିଲା । ଚିତ୍ରଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଧୀରେ-ଧୀରେ ସଙ୍କେତ ବା ଚିହ୍ନକୁ ବିକଶିତ ହେଲେ । ସଙ୍କେତ ବା ଚିହ୍ନଗୁଡ଼ିକ ସେଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଆସିଥ୍‌ ଚିତ୍ରଠାରୁ ଭିନ୍ନ ଦେଖାଗଲା । ଗୋଟିଏ ଗଛର ଛବିରୁ ବିକଶିତ ଚୀନା ଭାଷାର ଅକ୍ଷର/ଲିପିକୁ ଉଦାହରଣରୂପେ ନିଆଯାଇପାରେ ।

3. At first they used the first picture for a tree. After many years this changed to picture 2. And at present, they use the third one. The first picture looked like a tree. But the third one has greatly moved away from the tree. In this way, most of the writing system developed.
4. At present the world has about 7000 languages. About four thousand -of them do not have writing systems or scripts. Most of the tribal languages in India do not have scripts of their own.
