Abstract

This article employs the story grammar model to explore the role of televised cartoon serials in facilitating comprehension in school children of elementary grade. In India, research in English language teaching has not only addressed the methods and approaches of teaching English in a multilingual society, its cultural and psycho-social aspects and the dilemmas of curriculum and texts, but also has focused on how to teach the four basic skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing (henceforth LSRW) (Agnihotri & Khanna, 1997; Sheorey, 2006, Tickoo, 2003; Kudchedkar, 2002).
