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 will ask you questions to think about the story and share your ideas. Remember, predictions are guesses based on what we see and hear in the text.
Let’s look at the title of our story: 'U Mbhokota no Mavula'. What do you think this story might be about? I will write down your predictions on the board. For example, if you think it’s about a bird and the rain, we can write, 'U Mbhokota u ya etlhorong.' This helps us to visualize and connect with the story.
Now, let’s read the first part of our story together. As we read, I want you to listen carefully and think about what might happen next. After reading a few sentences, I will pause and ask you, 'What do you think will happen next?' Share your thoughts with your partner, and then we will discuss as a class.
After our shared reading, I want you to write your own sentences about the story. Use the predictions we discussed. Make sure to start your sentences with a capital letter and end with a full stop. For example, you could write, 'U Mbhokota u dya.' Remember to check your punctuation and spacing before you finish.
