L1_S17_Reading

Reading is a cognitive process involving decoding symbols to arrive at meaning. Reading is an active process of constructing the meanings of words.     

Tips to Read Effectively:

•           Know the Letters of the Language (Its forms, shapes, etc.)

•           Know the Pronunciation of the Letters (for example the sound of ‘a’ is different in ant (a), aeroplane (ae), aunt (aa), and lane (aee),)

•           Don’t worry if you don’t know the word or don’t understand the word (for example- baffle). Try to understand a word in the context or using the clues or pictures associated.

•           Don’t be frightened to see the big word or a new word (for example- rationalization)

•           Use the small words or words that you already know (for example- antagonization can be read by using small words such as ant, ago, gone, nice, sale, nation)

•           Learn to syllabify (for example- angle could be syllabified as an / gle)

 

Examples
