GRADE 12 Science

S. SUBJECT HOMEWORK
NO

1 ENGLISH a) Interview-Based research:

Students can choose a topic on which to do their

research/ interview, e.g. a student can choose the
topic : “ Evolving food tastes in my neighbourhood”
or “Corona pandemic and the fallout on families.”
Read the available literature. The student then
conducts interviews with a few neighbours on the
topic. For the interview, student will frame questions
based on the preliminary research/background.

The student will then write an essay/ write up /

report etc. up to 1000 words on his/her research and
 submit it. b) Students listen to podcasts/
interviews/radio or TV documentary on a topic and
prepare a report countering or agreeing with the
speakers. Write an 800 - 1000 words report and
submit.

b) Students create their own video/ Audio, after

writing a script. Before they decide a format, the
following elements can be taken into consideration:

● Theme/topic of the audio / video. Would the child

like to pick a current issue or something artistic like
theatre? ● What are the elements that need to be part
of the script?

● Will the video/audio have an interview with one or

more guests?

● Would they prefer to improvise while chatting with

guests, or work from a script?

● What would be the duration?

● How would they present the script/report to the

teacher, e.g. Can it be in the form of a narrative?
