PRE-READING TECHNIQUES

PRE-READING TECHNIQUES

Previewing and Predicting

Students predict the content of the materials

using visual information and clues for picture

or illustrated books, it is good to ask the

students what they think the text is about using

the illustrations.

Skimming and Scanning

Students are asked to skim and scan to quickly

survey the text form and structure. Allow

students to use pictures, labels, headings and

subheadings, and other text features to develop

a concept of what the material is about.

Unlocking Students identify words that are unfamiliar to them and try to look for the meaning of these words. Another means to unlock difficulty is to use synonyms or antonyms, and other word recognition techniques and vocabulary exercises. Activating Teachers may also present the theme of the story and ask the students their personal experiences relevant to the theme. Activating serves as a cognitive pump that allows the students to recall prior knowledge and extract meaningful constructs that are relevant to the reading story. Making Inference The students are asked to make inferences using the available information such as the title, the pictures, the length of the reading material and others. they will be asked to record and recite their inferences as well as their pieces of evidence.

DURING-READING TECHNIQUES Teachers should not leave the students to understand the reading material on their own. During reading, activities are needed to help the students to process significant details about the story. These include oral reading, silent reading, monitoring and clarifying and paraphrasing.

Active Reading This enhances the students’ grasp of the content. This further creates a connection between the text and spoken word. It also increases fluency and vocabulary recognition at the same time it allows the students to explore their emotions while reading and listening. Detailed Reading This enhances their understanding of the text since it helps the mind to access meaning by not focusing on pronunciation or sound production. It helps them concentrate and create mental pictures of the storyline. While doing silent reading, students are asked to notice patterns, repetition of ideas, ideas, connections, contradictions during reading. Predicting Outcomes A reading strategy where the readers are required to make predictions of the conclusion of the story based on the events in the plot. They are also allowed to make their conclusion.

POST-

READING

TECHNIQUES

After reading the entire story, the students need to understand all the element for pure appreciation of the story. After reading activities enhances deeper meaning- making of the story. POST-READING TECHNIQUES

Inferring and drawing conclusions To make inferences, teachers ask students to use some details of the story along with their own experiences to make reading personal and reflective. These techniques allow better engagement among students. Analyzing and Synthesizing Analyzing and synthesizing include comparing and contrasting ideas, identifying the cause and examining effects, citing problems and suggesting solutions. These develop the student’s critical thinking and communication skills.

Visual-Organizing For teachers to assess the students’ learning holistically, students are allowed to extract and construct the meaning of the story through a visual organization in a form of an outline, graphic organizers, creative synthesis, a story map and a sequence chart Recreating Recreating strategies include students’ rewriting the story with a different ending or writing a story of the same theme or similar characterization or conflict. Another is a creative dramatization if the story using the students’ made-up dialogues to recreate the story at the same time keeping its meaning and sense.
