Today, we will read a short story together. Shared reading helps us understand the text better and allows us to make predictions about what might happen next. As we read, I want you to think about the characters and the events in the story. What do you think will happen next? This will help us become better readers and thinkers.
Let’s read a short story about a little bird named 'Uhlanga'. As we read, I will pause and ask you what you think Uhlanga will do next. For example, if I say, 'Uhlanga saw a big tree and wanted to fly to it,' I might ask, 'What do you think Uhlanga will do next?' You can say, 'Uhlanga will fly to the tree!' This is how we make predictions based on what we read.
Now, I will read another short story about 'Uhlanga' and his friend 'Mpho'. After reading each part, I will ask you to predict what will happen next. For instance, after reading that 'Uhlanga and Mpho found a shiny object on the ground,' I will ask, 'What do you think they will do with it?' Let’s discuss your ideas as a group and see how many predictions we can make together.
Now it’s your turn! I want you to write a short sentence about what you think Uhlanga will do next in the story. Remember to use capital letters at the beginning and a full stop at the end. For example, you could write, 'Uhlanga will sing a song.' After writing, share your sentence with a partner and read it aloud to each other.
