Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Using a KWL strategy for your read aloud, have learners say what they know about some local festivals and what they want to know about it. Explain the new vocabulary and have learners use some of them to form sentences. During the reading stage, use questions that will highlight the new concepts the learners want to know the new vocabulary as well. After the reading the book, have learners share what they have learnt. Learners use the vocabulary learnt to talk about family celebrations. i.e. birthday, gifts, happy, etc. Draw their favourite part of the book and tell why
