    Atividade de leitura e escrita (escrita de resenha do texto teórico) - AULA 04


    - Class for reading and writing activity. Text: Teaching Reading In The Foreign Language
    Classroom - Ensinar Leitura Na Sala De Aula De Língua Estrangeira, Carla Callegaro
    Corrêa Kader.

    Teaching Reading in Foreign Language classrooms often seems easy, but it is a


    complex process because it involves many facets of human development for both teachers and
    students. Some techniques were explained to facilitate learning and some skills were named
    as Bottom-up and Top-down. In the first, the recognition of linguistic symbols and signs
    occurs, in the second involves the general or panoramic sense for the details of the text. These
    techniques evolve the student's sense of reading in which he becomes able to discern what is
    important and what is not.

    The text reveals that the sum of these skills contributes to the better learning of the
    student who transforms reading into an interactive form and this added to the motivation
    factor that created the desire to have such knowledge. In this way, extensive reading together
    with reading for pleasure increases the proficiency of foreign language students because you
    should avoid doing a thorough word-by-word search in foreign texts with the consequence of
    paralyzing the flow of learning as mentioned in the text. It also lists the micro skills that can
    be acquired to expand the students' reading ability by making them understand the
    information in the foreground and between the lines. For example: identifying the purpose of
    reading, silent reading techniques, skimming, scanning, guessing a word when the meaning is
    not known and thus inferring what the author means, among others. And complement with
    writing exercises for fixation and to stimulate thinking and the creation of new ideas.

    The text also provides special attention to the reader itself, as providing tools and prior
    information for them as a form of encouragement before reading, avoiding demotivation.
    Illustrations are effective strategies for students who do not have a deep understanding of the
    language because, according to previous images, they can search their intellect for the known
    words referring to that specific topic. But it does not leave out the importance of the teacher
    being attentive and teaching hard and noticing the shortcomings and supplying them in the
    best possible way, because we know that his role in training in Foreign Languages is of
    paramount importance.

    In resume, the text concisely approaches the processes of learning to read Foreign
    Languages in the classroom, but it is evident that the benefits will go beyond the scholar
    ambit. Swabbing on the nuances of theoretical learning, and listing the skills necessary for the
    development of each student, it does not fail to mention the essential role of the teacher. It
    objectively reports the schemes, strategies and skills that can be improved in our reading and
    how we should learn more easily, demystifying the incredible process of obtain knowledge
    through reading.
