The document discusses several approaches to teaching reading: 1. The global reading approach assumes reading is best learned through natural text and focuses on memorization of whole words. 2. Examples given are language experience activities, neurological impress activities using books/charts, and shared reading of stories. 3. The phonics approach teaches reading through learning sound-letter correspondences and applying this to build word recognition. 4. Sight words are words that cannot be sounded out and must be memorized through repetition and context.

1. Objectives:

2. Global Reading
Approach

3. What is Global Reading Approach?
• A global reading approach assumes that a
person learns to read best when reading
begins with natural and meaningful text.
• A global approach to reading is an approach
that begins by giving learners natural,
meaningful text to listen to, look at, and
memorize by sight.

4. Examples of Global
Reading
Approaches

5. 1.Do a language experience approach
activity with the learners.
• A language experience activity is usually an
activity that learners do together. It could
also be any experience an individual or group
has had. After the experience, a teacher
helps the learners write about what they
have experienced.

6. EXAMPLES
•Taking a trip to an interesting location
•Bringing an animal or object to the
classroom to observe and discuss
•Inviting a guest to class
•Taking a walk and observing the people
and surroundings.

7. 2. Neurological Impress Activity
2.1 Using a regular sized book
2.2 Using a big book or charts
BENEFITS
• Develops reading fluency.
• Helps impress the words into the learner's memory.
• Helps learners imitate correct
pronunciation, intonation, and phrasing.
• Increases confidence in reading.

8. 3. Using Shared Reading
Steps
1.Select an interesting story with repetition, or use a favorite story.
2.When introducing a new story, talk about
– the title
–the cover illustration, and
–the kind of story
3. Read the story to the group, tracking each word with a pointer
as you read.
4. Reread the story as a group, encouraging everyone to join in
"reading“ certain words or phrases as they are able.

10. Phonics is a method for teaching reading and
writing the English language by developing learners'
phonemic awareness—the ability to
hear, identify, and manipulate phonemes—in order
to teach the correspondence between these sounds
and the spelling patterns (graphemes) that represent
them.
Phonemes – sounds
Graphemes - letters

11. Phonics Method has proven to be useful in
teaching reading skills to students from
preschool through early elementary school or
as a practical way to introduce English to
foreign speakers. Phonics works by breaking
English words in smaller components and
basic sounds. These letters and letter
groupings are then applied to make words
until the student can comprehend
phrases, sentences and longer works.
The Phonics method involves the relation
between the speech sound and its written
form.

13. A sight word is a word whose spelling is not
straightforward and, therefore, does not enable a learning
reader to determine what spoken word it represents just by
sounding it out according to the rules. Learning readers
recognize sight words from having memorized them or by
drawing their meaning from context.

14. What is Sight Word Approach?
In a sight word approach, new words are learned by
sight (memory) as the learner sees them written and
with picture cues. A sight word approach to reading is
an approach that uses the word as the basic unit of
language (Halvorson, 1992)

15. My Reflection:
The way I see it, reading is
vital to people’s lives. That’s why as
teachers, we should do our best in
providing appropriate approaches
that will suite the needs of our
students. Teaching them how to
read is like giving them the
opportunity to be someone someday.
For reading is dreaming with open
eyes.

16. LEARNING TASK
Cite situations on how you
can apply the learned
approaches to teaching
reading.
