isiNdebele First Additional Language - Term 4 - Week 7

Today, we will explore a short story together. Shared reading allows us to read as a group, helping us to understand the text better. As we read, we will make predictions about what might happen next in the story. This will help us think critically and engage with the text.

Let’s read the first part of our story: 'UThandi uhlala emzaneni, futhi uthanda ukudlala ngaphandle.' After reading this, I want you to think about what you think will happen next. Will Thandi meet a friend? Will she find something interesting? Let’s discuss our ideas as a class.

Now, I will read another part of the story. Listen carefully and think about what you predict will happen next. After I finish reading, we will discuss your predictions. Remember to use full sentences when sharing your thoughts. For example, you can say, 'Ngicabanga ukuthi uThandi uzohlangana nomngane wakhe.'

For your independent task, I want you to write down your own prediction about the story. Use the sentence starter, 'Ngicabanga ukuthi...' and complete your thought. Make sure to use correct punctuation and spacing. After you finish, we will share some of your predictions with the class.
