Today, we will explore the concept of shared reading. Shared reading is when we read a text together as a class. It helps us understand the story better and allows us to make predictions about what might happen next. We will read a short story in isiZulu and discuss it as a group.
Let’s read the story 'UThandiwe noMvelo'. As we read, I will pause at certain points and ask you what you think will happen next. For instance, when Thandiwe finds a mysterious box, I might ask, 'What do you think is inside the box?' This encourages you to think critically and make predictions based on the text.
After reading the story, we will have a group discussion. I will ask you questions like, 'Why do you think Thandiwe was excited?' and 'What do you think she will do with the box?' You will share your thoughts with your classmates, and I will help you form complete sentences. Remember to use proper punctuation when speaking.
Now, it’s your turn to write! I want you to write a short paragraph about what you think happened after Thandiwe opened the box. Use at least three sentences and remember to use capital letters at the beginning of each sentence and a full stop at the end. Once you finish, we will share our paragraphs with the class.
