I was hosting an English club for kids. I divided the club's activities into four parts. They are: self-introduction, game-playing, reading an article and topic discussion.

I said "Before we move onto the last session (topic discussion), we will first read together an article".

Is the italic sentence natural?

1) "Move onto" should be "move on to." We can move onto a platform (the platform onto which we are moving), but we move on to another topic (the topic to which we are moving on).

2) Move "together" to the end. Don't put it between the verb (read) and its direct object (an article).

3) "First" is redundant.

Before we move on to the last session, we will read an article together.
