Importance of Learning Reported Speech in Grade 6
By Grade 6, students begin using English for longer texts, conversations, dialogues, and descriptive writing. Knowing how to convert direct speech into reported speech is essential because it:
improves clarity in writing and summarizing,
helps students write stories, dialogues, and essays more effectively,
strengthens understanding of verb tense changes,
enhances comprehension and note-taking skills,
prepares students for advanced grammar in Grades 7–8 and competitive exams.
Reported Speech teaches children how to share information accurately without copying words exactly, a skill used in daily communication and academic writing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Grade 6 students should be able to change pronouns, time expressions, and tenses correctly while converting direct speech to indirect speech.
Not always.
Universal truths and facts (like “the sun rises in the east”) do not change tense even when reported.
Because reported speech expresses something said in the past, so the reference of time must shift accordingly.
Using worksheets, rewriting short dialogues, and practicing daily sentences help strengthen understanding quickly.
