CBSE Class 1 Hindi Worksheets with Answers for Chapter 12

Summary

Chapter 12th of the CBSE Class 1 Hindi textbook is “Gaind Balla” meaning “Bat-ball”. It is a short and sweet story with which probably most of the Indian students can relate, and chances are all of you may already own a bat and a ball.

The story starts with the ball asking a question to the bat, why does the bat always hit him? In answer to that, the bat says that the game cannot be played if the bat stops hitting the ball. The next time the ball came near the bat, the bat hit the ball with all its strength, and the ball was thrown into the woods. This time, the ball decided to hide in the woods. The bat went to the woods to find the ball but could not find it. Now it was evening and the disappointed bat decided to go back by himself all alone. It was during this time that the ball came out of the woods and said loudly, "I am here! Get me". The bat took him out of the woods and the ball said, "Promise me that you will not hit me again." 


Exercise and worksheet:

The Chapter has Three Short and Simple Exercises:

  • The first exercise asks us to name a few games in which we are supposed to hit the ball with the bat just like we do in the Gilli-Danda. We have to name a total of six such games in particular.

  • The second exercise deals with reasoning skills. For starters, an example is given on the top like, “if the ball is lost, we cannot play bat-ball”. Similarly, you have to think about what happens when the gulli, manja, paasa (dice), and a chiddi is lost?

  • The last exercise is a rather interesting one. It asks if the ball is lost in your house, in which places will you try to find it? The six blanks are given below the question in which you have to answer six places where you might look if the ball is lost in your house.

FAQs on Class 1 Hindi Worksheets Chapter 12

1. Why should you study such a short Hindi chapter?

Though the chapter seems short, it is actually a fair length for the first standard student. And though Hindi is quite popular throughout the country and most of the students do know at least a fair amount of Hindi, one cannot express oneself as effectively without good reading. Therefore, a chapter like that of “Gaind-balla” helps the student learn the language in an expressive manner. At the same time, it teaches some real subtle lessons like that we should value everyone around us, just like the bat valued the ball towards the end of the story.

2. What purpose does the exercise serve?

An interesting thing to note here is that in the exercise section there are no traditional questions asked which the student has to find from the given text. Rather all three exercises focus on developing the brain muscle of the student. The first exercise asks to name the six games which require bat and ball, in this manner students can learn about many more games and maybe in future may develop a passion for one of them. While the second question deals with the reasoning ability of the student, by making an analogy between the first sentence given as an example and the rest of the sentences. And the final exercise kind of forces the student to recall when they looked when they lost the ball or if they never lost a ball, it forces them to imagine where they might look if they lost a ball.

3. What does CBSE Class 1 Hindi Chapter 12 “Gaind balla” teach us?

The story as discussed earlier is very simple but the message is subtle. By symbolizing the Bat and the Ball this chapter teaches us the value of someone else in our life. Though when Bat said that the game can only be played if he hits the ball, is one hundred percent correct answer, it does not mean that the bat has to hit the ball without reason. Bat is not supposed to hit the ball when the ball comes near it while no game is going on. In this way, it teaches us that there are people around us that help us, who will always stand by us but it does not mean we have to abuse them, we have to respect them and always care for them.
