Sesotho First Additional Language - Term 4 - Week 6

Today, we will learn about different animals in Sesotho. We will look at words like 'ntja' (fish), 'pudi' (sheep), and 'konyana' (rabbit). I will show you pictures of these animals, and we will say their names together. This will help you remember the words and understand what they mean.

Let’s practice making sentences with our new words. For example, if we want to say 'The fish is swimming' in Sesotho, we say 'Ntja e sesa.' I will write this on the board, and we will say it together. You can also try making your own sentences using the animals we learned about.

Now, I will give you a picture of an animal, and I want you to tell me a sentence about it in Sesotho. For instance, if I show you a picture of a sheep, you can say 'Pudi e ja.' I will walk around and help you as you create your sentences. Remember to use the correct structure!

For your independent practice, I want you to draw your favorite animal and write a sentence about it in Sesotho. You can use the words we learned today. Once you finish, we will share our drawings and sentences with the class. This will help us learn from each other!
