HW (12/Jan/17)
In this class, we learn about strategies for a correct reading. We saw 3 reading strategies: Prediction, Scanning and Identify main ideas. This is so useful for me, because if I predict things before reading the text, I can have a general idea about the text content. Scanning is a great idea for save time!, that's because if I scan a text (like a computer scanner, checking all the information of the page) I will be able to find and identify main ideas, and that's the goal.
This strategy can be used in other subjects, like Math or Verbal Expression, and it will be so important for me, because if I read and not only "see" a text, I will be able to understand what I'm reading and what I'm doing.
I can't understood some words, and when I ask to the teacher for the meaning of the words, she told to the class "You need to intuit the meaning of the words, because if you read a dictionary, you will find the reading boring", that's very interesting, now I will write the words that i can't understand, and when i finish the reading I will look for the meaning online.
Raul; 2 things:
ResponderEliminar1. please complement this entry according to instructions. You need to post the text read here and highlight it as required.
2. I suggest to avoid dictionaries as much as you can and to become stronger in "USING THE CONTEXT" when you read and to check dictionaries just to check meaning, but the most important thing is to learn this strategy
