Today, we will engage in shared reading, where we will read a short story together. Shared reading allows us to explore the text as a group, helping us to understand the story better. We will look at the title and pictures to make predictions about what the story might be about. This will help us to think critically and engage with the text.
Let's look at the title of our story: 'Mokhulu le Nonyana' (Grandpa and the Bird). What do you think this story will be about? Look at the picture on the cover. I see a grandpa and a bird. I predict that the story will talk about their friendship. What do you think? Let's write down our predictions on the board.
Now, we will read the story together. As we read, I want you to listen carefully and think about whether your predictions were correct. After each page, we will pause and discuss what we have read. I will ask you questions like, 'What happened next?' or 'How do you think the grandpa feels?' This will help us to understand the story better.
After our reading, I want you to write a few sentences about your favorite part of the story. Remember to use correct punctuation and spacing. You can start with 'Ke rata karolo e...' (I like the part where...). Once you finish writing, we will share our sentences with the class.
