Strategies for pre-reading, during reading, and post-reading.
READING STRATEGIES
3. Pre-reading
• Get into Alpha brainwave state by fixing your
posture, closing your eyes, and imagining a
place that is special to you. Then open your
eyes, and focus on the reading material.
4. Pre-reading continued
• Create a KPL chart.
• In the first column, K, write down what you
know about the reading material.
• In the second column, P, predict what you
think will happen or what you will be told
about in the reading material.
• Leave the third column, L, alone for now.
5. During Reading
• While you are reading, it is a good idea to read
faster so you can learn more. If you are
thinking that you can’t read any
faster, consider this. Your brain can process
4,800 words a minute!
• To read faster, you can move your finger to
follow your eyes in the text, look between the
lines to see more words at a time, or mentally
divide the text into three columns.
6. Post-reading
• Now you fill in the ‘L’ column of your KPL chart
with things you learned.
• You can also create a Mind Map or Notes TM
to summarize what you have learned.
• See the next 3 slides for examples.
