Ways of Reading.
Four ways of reading: skimming, scanning, extensive, intensive reading. Skimming – when pupils quickly run their eyes through the text to get the gist, to know how it is organized or to get the idea of the tone or the information of the writer. Example of exercises: underline the sentences or the words that better stress the idea of the sentence or paragraph or decide which title is the best, supply the missing sentences so as to get a coherent text. Scanning – quickly going through a text to find a particular piece of information: a name, a date. Example: you look through TV program, newspaper, dictionary. Extensive reading: This is a fluency activity, mainly involving global understanding, usually reading for one’s own pleasure Intensive reading –This is reading the text to extract specific information. This is more an accuracy activity, involving reading for detail. It is done under the guidance of a teacher. The aim is a deeper understanding of a text.
