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 is a fun way to use our imagination and think critically about the text.
Let’s look at the cover of our story, 'U Mufana no Mufana'. What do you see? (Show the cover image). Based on the title and the picture, what do you think will happen in the story? (Encourage students to share their ideas). For example, if they see a boy and a girl playing, they might predict that the story is about friendship or an adventure.
Now, we will read the first few pages of the story together. As we read, I want you to think about what might happen next. After each page, I will ask you to share your predictions. Remember to listen to your classmates and build on their ideas. 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. Use correct punctuation at the end of each sentence. For example, if you think the characters will go on an adventure, you could write, 'U Mufana no Mufana ba ya endzela.' Remember to check your spacing between words!
