Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading allows us to read as a group, helping each other understand the text better. We will look at the title and pictures first to make predictions about what the story might be about. This is an important skill because it helps us think critically about what we read.
Let's look at the title of our story: 'Uhlanga Lwethu'. What do you think this story might be about? Look at the picture on the cover. What do you see? Based on the title and the picture, I predict that the story will be about a plant or a garden. I think it might tell us how to take care of plants. What do you think?
Now, we will read the first few pages of 'Uhlanga Lwethu' together. As we read, I want you to think about whether your predictions are correct. After each page, we will pause and discuss what we have read. I will ask you questions like, 'What do you think will happen next?' and 'Why do you think that?' This will help us understand the story better.
After our reading, I want you to write three sentences about what you think will happen next in the story. Remember to use correct punctuation and spacing. For example, if you think a character will plant a seed, you can write, 'UThandi uzobeka isikhukhukazi.' Once you finish, share your sentences with a partner and discuss your predictions.
