Sesotho Home Language - Term 3 - Week 6

In this lesson, we will review what we have learned this term in Sesotho. We will focus on listening, speaking, reading, and writing. We will read short texts together and discuss them as a class. This will help us understand how to use words and sentences correctly.

Let's read a short story together. The story is about a boy named Thabo who loves to play outside. After reading, we will discuss the story. I will ask questions like, 'What does Thabo like to do?' and 'Where does he play?' This will help us practice our comprehension skills.

Now, let's practice building sentences. I will give you some words, and together we will create sentences. For example, if I say 'Thabo', 'play', and 'ball', we can make the sentence 'Thabo plays with a ball.' Remember to use capital letters at the beginning and a full stop at the end of the sentence.

For independent practice, I want you to write three sentences about your favorite activity. Make sure to use correct punctuation and spacing. After you finish, we will share our sentences with a partner and read them aloud to each other.
