Techniques to increase speed of reading
1. Phrasing
2. Scanning
3. Skimming
4. Key word reading
Phrasing
Prof. Palmer advocates this method as he says, “ The
word is too small a unit of speech and the sentence is
too long a unit to be read at a time.”
Let us enjoy the use of punctuation
A woman without her man is nothing.
"A woman, without her man, is nothing.”
“A woman: without her, man is nothing.”
Scanning
Scanning refers to the ability to locate specific information or
facts as quickly as possible.
a) A specific point or fact in a text
b) A formulae in a text,
c) A word in a dictionary,
d) Train or television schedules,
e) Any reference or bibliographical list,
f) Examination results, or
g) Any notes/ questions/ remarks at the end of the
text.
Skimming
It refers to the process of reading a text or passage in order
to get rough idea of what the text or passage is all about.
1. What is the overall purpose of the text?
2. What is the central idea or theme?
3. What does the author intent to do? (describe,
instruct, report, narrate, explain, argue, persuade,
illustrate and so on)
4. What are the main points of the text?
KEY WORD READING
It refers to the process of reading a text or passage in order
to get rough idea of what the text or passage is all about.
The key word method is an effective system for
remembering definitions, learning foreign language
vocabulary, and more. Any two pieces of information can be
linked together in your memory using this method .

WHAT IS READING COMPREHENSION?
Understanding a written text means extracting the
required information from it.
a) Consider the text as a whole, its title, accompanying
pictures or diagrams, the paragraphs and make guesses
about what the text is about.
b) Skim through the text a first time to see if your
hypotheses were right. Then ask yourself a number of
questions about the contents of the text.
c) Read the text again, more slowly and carefully this time,
trying to understand as much as you can and trying to
answer the questions you asked yourself.
GLOBAL COMPREHENSION?
Global comprehension means understanding the general meaning of
what you are reading. It can be compared to selective
comprehension, which means understanding specific information in
the text, and detailed comprehension, which means understanding
everything. Global, selective and detailed comprehensions have
parallels with the three reading skills of skimming, scanning and
intensive reading.
Example
The learners have listened to a story and now try to recreate it by
putting jumbled sentences into the correct order.
LOCAL COMPREHENSION?
a) Local comprehension is one of the skills, that helps to read a
piece of text intensively to extract specific information from the
text. Local comprehension skill is also called the intensive
reading skill
b) Local comprehension/intensive reading is the skill of reading a
piece of text closely or intensely for the purpose of extracting
specific information from the text.
INFERENTIAL COMPREHENSION?
a) Inferential comprehension requires the reader/viewer to draw on their prior
knowledge of a topic and identify relevant text clues (words, images, sounds) to
make an inference.
Inferential comprehensionis the ability to process written information and understand the
underlying meaning of the text. This information is then used to infer or determine deeper
meaning that is not explicitly stated. Inferential comprehensionrequires readers to:
1. combine ideas
2. draw conclusions
3. interpret and evaluate information
4. identify tone and voice.
A higher and more complex level of comprehension involves critical analysis which requires
readers to:
1. be critical
2. form opinions
3. identify authors' points of view and attitudes
4. identify and consider the authority of texts and their messages
5. infer motives of characters and themes.
PREDICTION COMPREHENSION?
a) Predicting is an essential reading strategy. It allows
learners to utilize info from the text to anticipate what
will happen in the story. When making predictions,
learners envision what will come next in the text, based
on their prior knowledge. Predicting encourages kids to
think ahead and ask questions actively.
EVALUATIVE COMPREHENSION?
Evaluative comprehension requires the reader to
move beyond the text to consider what they
think and believe in relation to the message in
the text.
THANK YOU
TECHNIQUES OF TEACHING READING
Evaluative comprehension requires the reader to
move beyond the text to consider what they
think and believe in relation to the message in
the text.
