Grade 4 pupils in South Africa do not read with comprehension (Roux, 2023), explain
and demonstrate with a few examples extracted from the story The Necklace, by Guy
de Maupassant, how you would teach intensive reading for comprehension at a word
level. (10)

Necklace, by Guy de Maupassant, how you would teach intensive reading for
comprehension at a sentence and paragraph level. (10)

Question 1: Teaching Intensive Reading for Comprehension
1.1 Teaching Intensive Reading for Comprehension at a Word Level
Objective: Help learners understand the meaning, usage, and nuances of individual
words in context.
Approach:
1. Contextual Guessing:
o Teach learners to infer the meaning of unknown words using context clues
from the surrounding text.
Example from The Necklace:
, o Word: dowry
o Context: "She had no dowry, no expectations, no means of being known,
understood, loved, wedded by any rich and distinguished man."
o Teaching Strategy:
▪ Ask learners to use the sentence to guess what "dowry" means.
Discuss that "dowry" refers to money or property brought by a bride
to her husband on their marriage.
▪ Discuss why having no dowry would affect her expectations and
marriage prospects.
2. Word Analysis:
o Break down complex words into roots, prefixes, and suffixes to understand
their meanings.
Example from The Necklace:
o Word: exquisite
o Teaching Strategy:
▪ Break down the word: "ex-" (out of) + "quis" (seek) + "-ite" (having
the quality of). Discuss how the parts relate to the meaning
"extremely beautiful and delicate."
▪ Use in a sentence: "The necklace was exquisite, sparkling brilliantly
in the light."
3. Synonyms and Antonyms:
o Teach learners to find synonyms and antonyms to expand their
vocabulary and deepen understanding.
