READING STRATEGIES

This involves a detailed and thorough examination of the text, paying close attention to language use, structure, and underlying meaning.

Breaking down the text into smaller, manageable chunks or sections can help improve comprehension, especially with longer or more complex texts.

This involves quickly going through the text to get a general idea of its content, structure, and main points before delving into a detailed reading.

Taking notes, highlighting key passages, and annotating the text with comments or questions can help reinforce learning and facilitate deeper understanding.

Understanding the context in which the text was written can provide valuable insights into its meaning and significance. This may involve researching the author, historical background, cultural context, or related works.

This strategy involves looking for specific information within the text, rather than reading it comprehensively.

After completing a reading, taking the time to reflect on the main ideas, themes, and implications of the text can deepen understanding and facilitate critical thinking.

This stands for Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review.

Engaging with the text by asking questions, making predictions, summarizing key points, and connecting the material to your own experiences or prior knowledge can help improve understanding and retention.
