Reading comprehension involves understanding text, connecting it to prior knowledge, critical evaluation, and monitoring understanding. There are different reading strategies like skimming, scanning, extensive, and intensive reading. Before reading, teachers can pre-teach vocabulary, have students predict from titles, sequence pictures, and use pictures. While reading, students can tell the story, make predictions, focus on words, and use pictures. After reading, activities include rearranging sentences, cartoon strips, drawing pictures, rearranging words, acting out stories, wall stories, writing new endings, and altering versions.

This document outlines reading strategies that teachers can use before, during, and after reading with students. Some strategies mentioned for before reading include activating prior knowledge, setting a purpose, exploring new vocabulary, using K-W-L charts, and skimming. During reading strategies include finding "hot spots", using story maps, making inferences, visualizing, and partner reading. After reading strategies provided are timelines, Venn diagrams, retelling the story, completing the "L" section of the K-W-L chart, and think-alouds.
Reading Strategies
This document provides strategies for effective reading comprehension. It outlines pre-reading strategies like reading with a purpose in mind, such as answering a specific question. Readers should focus on main ideas by turning headings into questions. During reading, readers should actively engage by asking clarifying questions, reacting to details, making connections, and thinking of related ideas. The key is for readers to think critically about the text as they read rather than just passively taking in information. Regular practice of these strategies can improve reading comprehension.
PRACTING RESPONDING TO TEXT
This document discusses strategies for comprehending narrative texts. It describes using story maps to diagram a story's setting, characters, plot, and theme. Retelling stories in one's own words and answering different types of comprehension questions are also recommended strategies. The goal is to help students better understand narrative elements and analyze what is important in a story.
Comprehension Skills
This document discusses various comprehension skills needed to understand written text. It describes how to skim a text to find the main idea, scan for specific details, note important details, infer meaning not directly stated, and recognize relationships like cause and effect. It also explains how to identify facts versus opinions and predict outcomes based on events and their relationships. Mastering these comprehension skills allows readers to understand text at a literal, interpretive and critical level.
Unit 3
This document discusses strategies for obtaining the gist of a text. It defines gist as the general meaning or purpose of a text conveyed in 20 words or less. Tips for getting the gist include understanding the writer's purpose, reading titles, subtitles and first/last paragraphs, then reading more carefully. Examples show getting the gist of a short story before answering comprehension questions by matching it to a picture summary. Overall the document provides guidance on using gist to effectively summarize texts.
Monitor And Clarify
Monitor and clarify is a reading strategy that involves stopping during and after reading to ensure understanding. Clarify means using strategies to determine the meaning of unclear text, while monitor focuses on making sure the reader comprehends. Readers can monitor and clarify by asking themselves questions, re-reading, looking at pictures, reading on for context clues, or asking others. The strategy encourages readers to monitor their understanding by considering what is happening and whether the text makes sense.

5.ilma evaluation
This document provides information about evaluating text through reading logs and grand conversations. It defines evaluation as a judgment of how good or successful something is. Readers can evaluate a text by expressing their opinions, making inferences, and measuring their comprehension. When evaluating, readers consider if the text was engaging, informative, and if they understood it. They can ask questions about what they liked and disliked or what they learned. Readers document their evaluations in reading logs and discuss them in grand conversations. Reading logs contain a reader's thoughts and reactions to a text. Grand conversations allow students to explore ideas and reflect on their feelings about what they read.
Types of reading.ppt
There are several types of reading that can occur in a language classroom including oral, silent, intensive, and extensive reading. Intensive reading focuses on linguistic details, vocabulary, and close analysis of the text. It aims to build language knowledge rather than just reading practice. Extensive reading involves reading large amounts of interesting texts to build reading fluency, confidence, and enjoyment. Skimming and scanning are also discussed. Skimming is a quick read to understand the overall meaning and organization, while scanning is searching quickly for specific facts or details. Both skills are useful for second language learners.

Reading comprehension strategies97
The document provides strategies to improve reading comprehension. It discusses using strategies like underlining key words, numbering main ideas, and not adding personal interpretations when reading standardized tests. For textbooks, it recommends understanding the typical organization with titles, introductions, chapter headings, illustrations, summaries, and objectives. Creative mapping and RAP strategies help recognize how information is organized and linked. Staying focused, eliminating distractions, and taking breaks can also improve reading comprehension.
Kinds of reading
This document discusses different kinds and techniques of reading. There are two main kinds - extensive reading which is casual reading for pleasure, and intensive reading which requires careful analysis of details. Intensive reading has several subtypes including scanning to quickly locate information, skimming to get the main ideas, exploratory reading to understand a whole text, study reading using techniques like SQ3R to maximize understanding, critical reading to evaluate facts and opinions, and analytical reading to carefully analyze individual words. The document provides examples and steps for several reading techniques.
Red4519 CA#1
This document discusses before, during, and after (BDA) reading strategies that teachers can use to help students comprehend texts. Some key strategies mentioned include using K-W-L charts before reading to activate prior knowledge, thinking aloud and making inferences during reading, and having students summarize or reflect on what they learned after reading. The purpose of these BDA strategies is to give students skills to understand texts by preparing them for reading, helping them make connections while reading, and allowing them to process and analyze what they read afterwards.
Reading Comprehension Macroskill
There are key differences between listening and reading as macroskills. A listening text relies more on stress and intonation from a speaker for comprehension, while a reading text provides a structured written format. When reading, students can take more time to understand the text by re-reading passages if needed. Effective reading texts contain familiar structures, vocabulary, and organization to aid student comprehension, such as short sentences, clear organization, appealing topics, and visual supports. Teachers can empower students' reading skills through strategies like previewing vocabulary, using context clues, and encouraging prediction and inference-making. The reading lesson framework involves preparation, guided reading, and follow-up integration with other skills.
TEACHING-STUDENTS-TO-RESPOND-TO-LITERATURE-THROUGH-WRITING.pptx
This document discusses strategies for teaching reading comprehension before, during, and after reading. It suggests that teachers activate students' background knowledge and discuss the text before reading. During reading, teachers should ask questions and have students summarize and make predictions. After reading, students should discuss, apply ideas to other situations, and summarize what they learned. The document also discusses using story maps, frames and retelling to aid comprehension of narratives and using KWL charts for expository texts.
Boosting reading skills
This document provides strategies for boosting reading skills, including skimming to get the gist, scanning for details, highlighting and underlining text, predicting what a text will be about based on clues, sequencing events that are not in order, summarizing the main points, inferring ideas that are implied but not directly stated, using context clues, expanding vocabulary, breaking down words into prefixes, suffixes and roots, questioning texts to better understand them, clarifying understanding by re-reading, and visualizing information through diagrams or images.
Reading Assessment
This document discusses techniques, reasons, and strategies for reading assessment. It outlines various techniques for reading like scanning, skimming, active reading, detailed reading, and speed reading. It also lists reasons for reading such as developing verbal abilities and reducing stress. Strategies for reading comprehension are discussed before, during, and after reading such as activating prior knowledge, making predictions, and summarizing. Criteria for effective reading assessment are also mentioned, including assessing comprehension, strategy use, decoding, and student choice.
Advice on Academic Writing
This document provides advice on academic writing. It discusses including an argument in an essay with evidence to support a thesis. Essays should be well-organized with an introduction, body, and conclusion. When writing, one should start by exploring ideas and revising extensively by rewriting sentences and reviewing transitions, word choice, and conciseness. Index cards and outlining on a computer can help organize ideas. Paragraphs should have a clear central topic developed with examples. Effective introductions engage readers and conclusions summarize key points or recommend actions. Proper use of quotes, revision, and punctuation are also covered.
Types of reading
The document discusses different types of reading activities used in language classrooms, including intensive reading, extensive reading, skimming, and scanning. Intensive reading involves carefully analyzing details like grammar and vocabulary to build language knowledge. Extensive reading focuses on understanding overall meaning when reading large quantities. Skimming allows getting the general idea of a passage quickly, while scanning specifically locates needed information.
Academic Writing Advice
This document provides advice on academic writing, including how to structure essays and paragraphs. It recommends that essays have a clear argument and thesis. Paragraph structure should include a topic sentence that presents the central idea. When taking notes from research, students should focus on key ideas and avoid copying large portions of text. Summarizing requires distilling the main concepts into a concise overview using your own words. Previewing a text helps orient the reader to what is most important.
Reading skill
Skimming allows readers to quickly get a general impression of a text by focusing on key elements like subtitles and headings. Scanning is used to search a text efficiently when the reader has predefined keywords, noting page numbers of relevant passages. Intensive reading provides a deeper understanding of a text by reading in "chunks" at around 400 words per minute for short bursts with time to evaluate the information. These three reading strategies help readers adapt their reading based on different aims and text types.
Readingskill
Skimming allows readers to quickly get a general impression of a text by focusing on key elements like subtitles and headings. Scanning is used to search quickly for specific predefined keywords. Intensive reading provides a deeper understanding of a text by reading in more detail. Being able to distinguish between these three reading modes helps with adapting one's reading based on the reading purpose.
Reading Strategies
The document outlines 15 reading strategies: previewing, activating prior knowledge, making predictions, visualizing, understanding sequence of events, identifying main ideas and details, asking questions, paraphrasing, drawing conclusions, predicting mood in poetry, comparing and contrasting, outlining, identifying cause and effect relationships, summarizing, and synthesizing. These strategies are designed to help readers better comprehend texts by activating background knowledge, making inferences, identifying key information, and integrating new knowledge with existing understanding.
SQ3R reading method
The document describes the SQ3R method for effective reading in academic settings. SQ3R is an acronym that stands for Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review. It involves previewing a text to understand its structure, asking questions, actively reading to answer questions, reciting key points, and reviewing for retention. Using SQ3R helps students comprehend texts better by engaging them in the material and enhancing recall. It also promotes active learning over passive reading.

There are three main tenses in English: present, past, and future. Each tense can be further divided into simple and progressive/continuous forms. The present tense expresses current or ongoing actions, habits, general truths, and planned future actions. The past tense is used for completed actions and durations in the past. The future tense can be expressed using "will" to indicate voluntary actions or "be going to" to suggest planned or predicted events.

This document discusses subject-verb agreement and provides examples. It defines the subject as the person, place, thing or idea doing or being something in a sentence. The subject can be singular, plural, or uncountable. It defines the verb as the word describing the action. Verbs can be singular or plural. The key rule is that subjects and verbs must agree in number - a singular subject takes a singular verb and a plural subject takes a plural verb.

Countable nouns refer to individual objects or people that can be counted, and can be singular or plural. Uncountable nouns refer to non-discrete concepts or materials that cannot be counted, and are always singular. Adjectives are used differently with countable and uncountable nouns - "a/an" is used with singular countable nouns but not uncountable nouns. Some nouns can be either countable or uncountable depending on whether a quantity or container is specified.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
