4V Reading Week B2
The Purpose of This Task
Why are we doing this?
You are going to practice with reading strategies. You will learn about the different reading strategies that exist in order to train you at comprehensive reading.
Comprehensive reading is a useful skill to have and one necessary for your final exam in year 6.
Although you might think: “I’m already good at reading”, or “I have already read a lot of books”, comprehensive reading is a different skill that needs to be trained. Naturally, reading a lot (whether that is books or articles) does make you better at comprehensive reading as well, as it also expands your vocabulary.
In the reading weeks, you will learn about different reading strategies and how to use them, as well as practice with different type of texts. This week, the focus will be on scanning, predicting, activating prior knowledge, deducing word meaning, and reading intensively.
You will practice with B2 level texts and how to approach them.
