Shared reading is a collaborative reading experience where the teacher and students read a text together. This method encourages participation and helps learners to make predictions about the text. Today, we will read a short story in Sesotho and discuss what we think will happen next based on the clues provided in the text.
Let’s read a short story about a boy named Thabo who finds a mysterious box in the forest. As we read, I will pause and ask you what you think is inside the box. For example, after reading that Thabo opened the box and saw a bright light, I might ask, 'What do you think the light means?' This encourages you to think critically and make predictions based on the text.
Now, let’s read another short story together. I will read the first paragraph aloud, and then I will ask you to predict what might happen next. After reading each paragraph, we will discuss your predictions as a class. Remember to listen carefully to the details in the story, as they will help you make informed guesses about what will happen.
For your independent practice, I want you to write a short paragraph predicting the ending of the story we just read. Use complete sentences and remember to include proper punctuation. After you finish writing, share your predictions with a partner and discuss how you came to your conclusions.
