Objectives
 To establish the importance of teaching
reading to students
 To recognize the difference between
teaching reading and text analysis
 To explore reading strategies and their
use in the second language
classroom
 To apply the reading strategies to a
reading passage
 To analyze the importance of reading
aloud in the classroom.
Introduction

Why do we teach reading?


We teach students reading
to help them:

a) learn the language

b) read for information

c) read for cultural


knowledge and
awareness
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.
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.
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.
Reading Strategies
What are the reading
strategies that the teacher
can use while teaching
reading?
Strategies that can help students
read more quickly and
effectively
:include
1. previewing
2. predicting
3. skimming and
scanning
4. guessing
from context
As a group, try to show the
role of the teacher in each
strategy.
Previewing

 Reviewing titles, section


headings, and photo
captions to get a sense of
the structure and content
of a reading selection
Predicting

 Using knowledge of the


subject matter to make
predictions about
content and vocabulary
and check
comprehension.
Skimming and Scanning

 Using a quick survey of the


text to get the main idea,
identify text structure and
confirm or question
predictions
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
Paraphrasing

 Stopping at the end of


a section to check
comprehension by
restating the
information and ideas
in the text
Incorporating Effective Reading
Strategies into the Second
Language Classroom
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
With the rest of your colleagues,
try to decidewhich reading
strategy can best be used in
.each stage
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.)
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


4. guessing word meanings from context clues
5. considering syntax and sentence structure
and analyzing reference words
6. reading for specific pieces of information
7. learning to use the dictionary effectively
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.
