Q1.
On the basis of what the speakers said about the art forms, complete the table given below. (Name of the child / State / Art form / Things needed — Akanksha, Aipan …; Priyaranjan, clay, brass scrap, wax, fire; Chitra …; Balamurali, Andhra Pradesh, Kondapalli …)
Answer
The printed table on page 136 has four cells already filled — Aipan, clay, brass scrap, wax, fire, Andhra Pradesh and Kondapalli. Here is the completed table.
| Name of the child | State | Art form | Things needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Akanksha | Uttarakhand | Aipan (given) | White rice flour paste; geru (red clay) to colour the wall; floors and walls of the puja room |
| Priyaranjan | Odisha | Dhokra | clay, brass scrap, wax, fire (given) |
| Chitra | Kerala | Coconut shell craft | Brown coconut shell, sandpaper or a machine, a base, wood polish |
| Balamurali | Andhra Pradesh (given) | Kondapalli (given) | Soft wood from the nearby hills, makku (tamarind seed powder and sawdust), oil and water-colours or vegetable dyes and enamel paints |
Note on the spelling: The reading on page 134 spells the girl's name Aakansha, while the table on page 136 spells it Akanksha. Both refer to the same child from Uttarakhand.
