Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading allows us to read as a group, helping each other understand the text. We will look at the pictures and the title to make predictions about what the story might be about. This will help us become better readers and thinkers.
Let's look at the title of our story: 'Mokhantšo le Motsamai' (The Clever Rabbit and the Hunter). What do you think this story will be about? Look at the picture on the cover. I see a rabbit and a hunter. I predict that the rabbit will try to escape from the hunter. What do you think will happen next? Let's write down our predictions on the board.
Now, we will read the first few pages of the story together. As we read, I want you to listen carefully and think about what might happen next. After each page, we will pause and discuss our thoughts. What do you think the rabbit will do when it sees the hunter? Let's share our ideas and write them down.
After our reading session, I want you to write three sentences about what you think will happen next in the story. Remember to use correct punctuation at the end of each sentence. You can also draw a picture to illustrate your prediction. Once you finish, we will share our sentences with the class.
