Setswana First Additional Language - Term 2 - Week 3

Today, we will learn about different animals in Setswana. We will focus on common animals such as 'ntšhu' (dog), 'katse' (cat), 'nku' (sheep), 'kgoši' (lion), and 'pudi' (cow). I will show you pictures of these animals, and we will repeat their names together. This will help you remember them better.

Let's practice the sounds that these animals make. For example, the 'ntšhu' barks, and the 'katse' meows. I will make the sound, and you will guess which animal it is. After that, we will act out the animals. When I say 'ntšhu', you will bark and pretend to be a dog. This will make learning fun and interactive!

Now, let's play a game called Animal Charades. I will divide you into small groups. Each group will choose an animal from our list and act it out without speaking. The other groups will guess which animal it is in Setswana. This will help you practice both your speaking and listening skills while having fun!

For your independent practice, I want you to draw your favorite animal from our lesson today. After you finish your drawing, label it with its name in Setswana. You can use crayons or colored pencils to make your drawing colorful. Once you are done, we will share our drawings with the class and practice saying the names together.
