Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

* Follow the steps of the KWL strategy instruction (K2.1.2.1.2, also appendix 1), as you read aloud the informational text on the global community to the learners. Learners first say what they know about the outside world (K), ask questions on what they want to know, listen as you read, pause often and let learners find answers to their questions. After reading, have them share the lessons learnt. Encourage students to share their experiences too.
