,QUESTION; 1
1.1I would ensure that the library is a
welcoming and comfortable space for
students. This could involve arranging cozy
reading corners, displaying colourful and
engaging posters and providing comfortable
seating to create an inviting atmosphere
EXAMPLES
• I would establish a book club where
students can choose a book to read
collectively. After a designated reading
period, we would hold regular discussions
where students can share their thoughts,
insights and favourite parts of the book.
This not only encourages active reading
but also fosters a sense of community and
shared enthusiasm for literature
• Hosting storytelling workshops where
students can take turns sharing their
favourite stories or even creating their
own. This activity not only promote
creativity but also allows students to
develop their public speaking and
communication skills. It also encourages a
love for storytelling and can inspire others
to explore new books and genres
,1.2 MEMORABLE READING
EXPERIENCE FROM CHILDHOOD
• One of the most memorable reading
experiences from childhood was when my
parents would read to me before bedtime.
They used various strategies to make the
reading session special, such as using
different voices for characters, asking me
to predict what would happen next and
encouraging me to ask questions about the
story. This interactive approach made the
reading session engaging and enjoyable
IMPACTS ON ONGOING
ENGAGEMENT WITH BOOKS
• This experience had a significant impact
on my ongoing engagement with books. It
instilled in me a love for storytelling and
sparked my imagination. The interactive
reading sessions also cultivated my
curiosity and critical thinking skills. As a
result, i developed a lifelong passion for
reading and continued to seek out books
that would captivate my imagination and
intellect. These special reading sessions
from my childhood laid the foundation for
a deep and enduring relationship with
books that has enriched my life into
adulthood
, 1.3 In a whole class-shared reading
lesson, you can engage learners’
imagination by introducing a story with
an open ending or multiple possible
outcomes. After reading the main parts
of the story, you can prompt the learners
to brainstorm and discuss alternative
endings in small groups. Then each
group can present their alternative
ending to the whole class
PROMOTING CREATIVITY AND
CRITICAL THINKING
This activity promotes creativity by
encouraging learners to think outside of the
box and come up with unique imaginative
endings for the story. It also fosters critical
thinking as learners analyse the characters,
plot and theme to create endings that are
logical and consistent with the story’s
elements. By sharing and discussing their
alternative endings learners also develop
their communication and collaboration skills.
This activity encourages active engagement
with the text and allows learners to explore
different perspectives, enhancing their
overall understanding of the story
