Writing a Close Analysis and Critical Interpretation of Literary Texts LESSO Applying a Reading N2 Approach READING APPROACH Reading Approach: Teachers use reading approach as one of the methods in teaching English. Students are demanded to read more to improve their knowledge and get new ideas. Inferencing, guessing, and predicting are important skills developed in reading. Reading Approach: By reading, students will know about the different of culture by reading across cultural understanding, and they will learn how to pronounce the words correctly. In reading approach, students are expected to improve their English skills. SKIMMING Skimming: In skimming, the main idea of a text is quickly identified. The goal is to read shorter texts to extract accurate detailed information. Skimming is done at a speed three to four times faster than regular reading. People often skim when they have lots of material to read in a limited amount of time. Skimming: Some students will read the first and last paragraphs using headings, summarizes and other organizers as they move down the page or screen. Some might also read the title, subtitles, subheadings, and illustrations. Other people consider reading the first sentence of each paragraph. Skimming: Skimming works well to find dates, names, and places. It might be used to review graphs, tables, and charts. This technique is useful when you are seeking specific information rather than reading for comprehension. SCANNING Scanning: Scanning is quickly reading a text to get the summary of it. It is a technique wherein students search for keywords or ideas. Scanning involves moving eyes quickly down the page seeking specific words and phrases. Scanning: Scanning is also used for the reader to find answers to questions. Once a student scanned the document, they will go back and skim it. EXTENSIVE READING Extensive reading: Extensive Reading is an approach to language learning, including foreign language learning, by means of a large amount of reading. The reader’s view and review of unfamiliar words in a specific context will allow the reader to infer the word’s meaning, to learn unknown words. Extensive reading: Extensive Reading is the free reading of books and other written material that is not too difficult for readers. Extensive Reading is sometimes called Free Voluntary Reading.
