Use the KWL strategy as you read the informational text to learners. (See Appendix 1, K2.1,21.2)
*
Check on the K and W before you read the text and the L after reading. K-Ask the learners to say what they already know about the theme. W-Ask them to tell you what they want to know about the weeks' theme. Read the text aloud to them pausing often for them to share what they are learning or have learnt from listening to the text (L). Learners share what they have learnt about the theme in small groups and then with the whole group.
