Abstract
Learning a language opens the door to the contemporary world. This study is an integrated approach to develop reading, writing and speaking skills in primary school children. The techniques are strategically planned and applied in the same academic year through the online platform, so that the subjects of the study are benefitted holistically. Numerous activities are implemented with scientific insight throughout the study. The data collected as part of two different studies to assess the number of children with difficulties in reading and writing skills supplements this integrated study; two separate publications based on these are listed below. Application of the strategies and completion of these activities, with some ongoing, it is concluded, will enrich the interpersonal skills of communication and nourish reading and writing capabilities of children at the primary level.
