Shared reading is a collaborative reading experience where the teacher reads a text aloud while students follow along. This method encourages students to engage with the text, make predictions about what will happen next, and discuss their thoughts. Today, we will read a short story in Sesotho and predict the outcomes based on the clues provided in the text.
Let’s read a short paragraph together: 'Mpho o ile a etela lelapa la hae, empa o ile a bona hore ho na le mathata a mangata.' After reading this, what do you think Mpho will do next? Students might predict that Mpho will help his family solve their problems. This prediction is based on the context of the story and the character's actions.
In small groups, students will read another short text. After reading, each group will discuss and write down their predictions about the story's ending. For example, if the text mentions a storm approaching, students might predict that the characters will seek shelter. Groups will then share their predictions with the class, fostering discussion and critical thinking.
Students will write their own short stories in Sesotho, incorporating a prediction element. They should focus on using correct punctuation and spacing. For instance, they might write, 'Ke nahana hore Mpho o tla fumana thuso ho tloha ho motsoalle oa hae.' After writing, they will exchange stories with a partner for feedback on clarity and correctness.
