Reading
Comprehension
Reading comprehension is the ability to
read text, process it, and understand its
meaning. It involves making
connections between words and ideas,
as well as drawing conclusions and
inferences.
Good reading comprehension requires
active engagement in the text, as well as
an understanding of the text’s structure,
purpose, and context.
It helps us to build
on our existing
knowledge and
develop our critical
thinking skills.
It increases our
vocabulary and
improves our
writing and
speaking abilities.
Why do we need to
comprehend?
It enables us to
extract and
comprehend
meaningful
information from
the text.
Reading
comprehension
helps us better
understand the
written word and
how to effectively
communicate with
others.
Four Reading
Styles
Scanning
Skimming
Intensive Reading
Extensive Reading
The use of context clues helps the reader
to understand unfamiliar words.
Make sure you discuss the meaning of
new words based on the surrounding
text. It is a good idea to create a word
journal or flashcards for new vocabulary.
This can be used later for reinforcement.

Steps in Skimming a Text
Before reading, scan
the text to gain an
overall understanding
of its content. Look for
keywords, main ideas,
and subtopics.
Read the text with
purpose. Begin with the
introduction and
conclusion, then move
to the main body of the
text. Focus on key
words, topics, and
ideas.
Highlight or make
notes on the important
points. This will help
you review the material
quickly and effectively.
Scanning
Scanning reading is a reading
technique that involves quickly
skimming a text in order to locate
specific information. It is used
when the reader knows what
they are looking for and need to
find it quickly.
Scanning reading requires the
reader to skim the text in order to
quickly identify the desired
information.
Steps in Scanning a Text
Take a few moments to
read the title,
introduction, and any
headings or graphics.
Make a quick prediction
about the topic or the
main idea of the text.
Read the material
carefully and look for
key words or ideas.
Take notes as you go
along to help you
remember and
understand the
material.
After you have read and
taken notes, summarize
the material in a few
sentences or bullet
points. This will help
you remember the
main points and make
sure that you have
accurately understood
the material.
Intensive
Reading
Intensive reading is a method of
reading that is focused and in-
depth. It involves reading text
carefully and slowly, paying
attention to details, and looking
up unfamiliar words and
concepts.
Intensive reading is typically used
to gain a deeper understanding of
the text or to understand a
particular concept.
Why Read Intensively?
Intensive reading helps
to improve
comprehension by
forcing readers to slow
down and analyze the
text in greater detail.
This allows for a deeper
understanding of the
material.
Intensive reading
encourages critical
thinking by allowing
readers to question the
text and draw their own
conclusions. This helps
readers to think more
deeply.
Intensive reading can
also help to improve a
person’s vocabulary. By
reading more
challenging material,
readers are exposed to
unfamiliar words and
concepts that they may
not have encountered.
Extensive
Reading
Extensive reading is a method of
language learning that involves a
large amount of reading of
authentic materials, such as
novels, magazines, newspapers,
and other texts.
The goal of extensive reading is
to help learners to become fluent
in a language and to increase
their knowledge of the language.
Why Read Extensively?
Extensive reading
allows students to
develop their reading
proficiency and expand
their vocabulary.
With regular practice,
students become more
familiar with the
structure of written
texts and this helps
them to better
comprehend what they
read.
By reading a variety of
texts, students become
more interested in
reading and develop a
greater appreciation for
the activity. This
encourages them to
read more and even
seek out new texts.
Reading is a
journey...
and the books are the wings that will
take you there.
