Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading helps us understand how to predict what might happen next in a story. We will look at the pictures and read the title to make guesses about the content. This process encourages us to think critically and engage with the text.
Let’s look at the cover of our story, 'The Clever Rabbit'. What do you see? (Show the cover image). Based on the picture, what do you think the rabbit will do? (Encourage students to share their thoughts). Now, let’s read the first few pages together and see if our predictions were correct.
After reading the first part of the story, let’s discuss what we think will happen next. I will ask you some questions: What do you think the rabbit will find? Why do you think that? Let’s write down our predictions on the board. Remember to use complete sentences and proper punctuation.
Now it’s your turn! After finishing the story, write down your own prediction about what will happen at the end. Use at least two sentences and remember to start with a capital letter and end with a full stop. Once you finish, share your sentences with a partner.
