Abstract

Reading is an integral part of our lives. The low proficiency in reading skills of undergraduate students has prompted me to take up this critical discussion on how reading skills are taught at the primary level in schools. In the NCERT English text book that I examined for the present analysis, I found significant gaps in the understanding of reading as well as in the classroom transaction of reading skills.
