Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Do a picture walk and have learners predict what the story will be about. Introduce the vocabulary related to appropriate titles of extended family members to the learners. Use the title to have them talk about the members in their family. Using interactive reading, pause often and have learners talk about family members mentioned and what they do to help the family and the learners. E.g. Father, mother, uncle, sister, brother. Have learners count all the members of the family read about. Assist them to subtract (take away) the learners from the number and tell how many members will be left? Repeat the activity using other criteria e.g. males, females, young, old, etc.
