    What is reading comprehension?
    It refers to the ability to read text,
    process it, and understand its
    meaning
    It shows the level of
    understanding of a text or
    message
    It depends on individual cognitive
    development (the construction of
    thought process)
    Why is it so important?
    Without comprehension, reading is nothing more than tracking
    symbols on a page with your eyes and sounding them out

    Imagine being handed a story written in Egyptian hieroglyphics


    with no understanding of their meaning.

    Reading comprehension is important because without it


    reading doesn’t provide the reader with any information.
    Before Reading
    Sets a goal
    Thinks about and jots down
    predictions
    Gets all the materials before
    start reading
    Each reason will
    influence the way you
    read e.g. quickly or
    slowly, looking for fact
    or opinion.
    During Reading
    Stays focused and on task the
    entire time
    Asks and answers questions
    Stops and jots down your
    thinking while you are reading
    Vocabulary
    With the new words which you think are important:

    If an approximate meaning is enough,


    Try to guess the meaning using word function, context
    (immediate and wider) and word form
    If the exact meaning is needed,
    Use a dictionary
    Ask another student, or your tutor
    After Reading
    Writes about your reading in a
    journal
    Talks about reading with a friend
    Makes a plan for what they want
    to read next
    How to be an excellent reader?
    Practise! Read, read and read!
    Improve your vocabulary! Don't
    be lazy to open your dictionary.
    Think critically by asking
    questions (5W1H)
    Discuss
    Review and summarise!
