Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading allows us to read as a group, helping each other understand the text. Before we start reading, I want you to look at the pictures and the title. What do you think this story is about? Making predictions helps us to think about what we will learn from the text.
Let’s look at the title of our story: 'Tlhokomelo ya Banna'. What do you think this story might be about? I will write down your predictions on the board. For example, if someone says it’s about taking care of animals, I will write that down. This helps us to see if our predictions are correct after we read the story.
Now, let’s read the story together. I will read the first few sentences aloud, and then I will ask you to read the next part. As we read, think about whether your predictions were correct. After each paragraph, we will pause and discuss what we have read. What new information did we learn? Did anything surprise you?
After our reading, I want you to write three sentences about the story. Use correct punctuation and make sure your sentences are clear. For example, if the story was about taking care of animals, you might write, 'Ke tlhokomela diphologolo.' Remember to check your spacing and punctuation before you finish.
