Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading allows us to read as a group, helping each other understand the text. We will look at the pictures and the title to make predictions about what the story might be about. This will help us become better readers and thinkers.
Let's look at the cover of our story, 'Uthando Lwethu' (Our Love). What do you see? (Show the cover). Based on the picture, what do you think the story is about? (Encourage students to share their thoughts). For example, if they see a family, they might predict that the story is about family love.
Now, let’s read the first page of the story together. As we read, I want you to listen carefully and think about what might happen next. After reading a few sentences, pause and ask, 'What do you think will happen next?' Encourage students to share their predictions and discuss their ideas as a group.
After our reading, I want you to write one sentence about what you think will happen next in the story. Remember to use correct punctuation and spacing. For example, you might write, 'Uthando lwethu luyakhula' (Our love is growing). Share your sentence with a partner and discuss why you think that will happen.
