5 APPROACHES TO READING
READING FOR DETAIL
INTENSIVE READING. READING TEXTS CLOSELY AND CAREFULLY UNDERSTANDING AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE.
SKIMMING AND SCANNING
SKIMMING: READING QUICKLY TO GET A GIST OF THE PASSAGE
SCANNING: READING TO GET SPECIFIC INFO, WITHOUT READING CAREFULLY.
TOP-DOWN READING
READING FROM OVERVIEW TO DETAILS. A GOOD ROUTE FOR A READING LESSON: PRE-TEXT (INTRO, GET THEM INTERESTED), TEXT (SKIMMING & SCANNING) AND POST-TEXT (DEBATE, WRITE A LETTER IN REPLY, ROLE PLAY)
EXTENSIVE READING
READING LONGER TEXTS (POWERFUL IMPACT ON LANGUAGE LEARNING). IT WIDES LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGE.
