3. Objectives
To establish the importance ofteaching
reading to students
To recognize the differencebetween
teaching reading and text analysis
To explore reading strategies andtheir
use in the second language classroom
To apply the reading strategies toa
reading passage
To analyze the importance ofreading
aloud in the classroom.
5. We teach students reading
to help them:
a) learn the language
b) read for information
c) read for cultural
knowledge and
awareness
6. Reading to Learn the Language
Giving students a variety of
materials to read helps them
absorb vocabulary, grammar,
sentence structure, and
discourse structure. Students
thus gain a more complete
picture of the ways in which
the elements of the language
work together to convey
meaning.
7. Reading for Content Information
The students' purpose for
reading is often to obtain
information about a subject they
are studying. Reading for
content information in the
language classroom gives
students both authentic reading
material and an authentic
purpose for reading.
8. Reading for Cultural Knowledge
and Awareness
Reading everyday materials
that are designed for native
speakers can give students
insight into the lifestyles and
worldviews of the people
whose language they are
studying.
10. What are the reading
strategies that the teacher
can use while teaching
reading?
11. Strategies that can help students
read more quickly and effectively
:include
1. previewing
2. predicting
3. skimming and
scanning
4. guessing from context
5. paraphrasing
12. As a group, try to show the
role of the teacher in each
strategy.
13. Previewing
Reviewing titles, section
headings, and photo
captions to get a sense of
the structure and content
of a reading selection
14. Predicting
Using knowledge of the
subject matter to make
predictions about
content and vocabulary
and check
comprehension.
15. Skimming and Scanning
Using a quick survey of the
text to get the main idea,
identify text structure and
confirm or question
predictions
16. Guessing from Context
Using prior knowledge
of the subject and the
ideas in the text as
clues to the meanings
of unknown words,
instead of stopping to
look them up
17. Paraphrasing
Stopping at the end of
a section to check
comprehension by
restating the
information and ideas
in the text
19. To encourage students to use effective
strategies when reading, the teacher
can develop simple exercises to elicit
information via targeted strategies.
These exercises can be divided by the
stage of reading at which they occur
into:
(a) Pre-reading Activities,
(b) While Reading Activities and
(c) Post-reading Activities
20. With the rest of your colleagues,
try to decide which reading
strategy can best be used in
.each stage
21. Pre- reading Activities
Pre-reading activities:
Introduce students to a a particular text
Elicit or provide appropriate background
knowledge
arouse their interest
Pre-reading activities include:
brainstorming
considering illustrations and titles
skimming and scanning (for structure, main
points, etc.)
22. While-reading Exercises
While reading exercises:
1. help students develop reading strategies
2. improve their control of the second language
3. decode problematic text passages
Such exercises might include
1. guessing word meanings from context clues
2. considering syntax and sentence structure
and analyzing reference words
3. reading for specific pieces of information
4. learning to use the dictionary effectively
23. Post-reading Exercises
Post-reading exercises:
1. Check students’ comprehension
2. Lead them to a deeper analysis of the
text
Because the goals of most real world
reading are not to memorize an
author's point of view or to summarize
text content, second language reading
must go beyond detail-eliciting
comprehension drills.
