Today, we will learn new words in Sepedi that we can use in our daily conversations. Vocabulary is important because it helps us express our thoughts clearly. We will read a short story together and identify new words. After reading, we will discuss the meanings of these words and how they can be used in sentences.
Let's look at the word 'ngwana' which means 'child' in Sepedi. We can use it in a sentence: 'Ngwana o a bapala,' which means 'The child is playing.' Notice how we start with a capital letter and end with a full stop. This is how we write sentences correctly in Sepedi.
In groups, you will create sentences using the new vocabulary words we learned today. Each group will choose three words and write a sentence for each. Remember to use correct punctuation. After you finish, each group will share their sentences with the class. This will help us practice speaking and listening skills.
Now, it's your turn to write! Choose five new words from our lesson and write a short paragraph using these words. Make sure your sentences are clear and have correct punctuation. After you finish writing, read your paragraph to a partner. This will help you practice reading aloud and improve your confidence.
