We change the way we read by text or

purpose.(In L1 we do this naturally)

newspaper novel travel guide contract user’s manual poster blog direct mail Scan (look for particular words or information) Skim (read the whole thing quickly and roughly) Read the parts you want to read Read everything carefully Read from page one to the end Or combination of above

Page 14: Helping Students Become Fluent, Joyful and Confident · PDF fileRiddle 2 What always runs, but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed, but never sleeps, has a mouth, but

We might want to teach our EFL

students to: • Scan

• Skim

• Shift

• Skip

• Stop

• Strategies that L1 readers rather naturally apply

Page 15: Helping Students Become Fluent, Joyful and Confident · PDF fileRiddle 2 What always runs, but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed, but never sleeps, has a mouth, but

Strategy training can help students:

• lower their anxiety. (feel more relaxed)

• read more fluently. (not word by word)

• find reading more enjoyable.

• feel more confident.

Many reading textbooks include

strategy training

For example:

• Reading Power (Pearson Education)

• Cover to Cover (Oxford University Press)

Fluency/comprehension strategies

introduced in Cover to Cover 1 • Scanning

• Skimming for the main idea

• Predicting the topic

• Ignoring unknown words

• Recognizing signal words

• Finding main ideas in paragraphs

• Identifying meaning from context

• Recognizing points of view

• Recognizing reference words

Let’s enjoy a scanning activity.

Scanning is searching very fast for specific information—a fact, a number, a word, a phrase. Make a clear picture in your mind of the information you are looking for. Move your eyes quickly across the text. Don’t read every word.

• Fluency in reading is the ability to read rapidly with ease and accuracy, and to read with appropriate expression and phrasing.

Three central components of fluency

• Automaticity

• Accuracy

• Rate

Fluency—rapid and accurate word

recognition

• Comprehension depends on word recognition.

• Accuracy means accurate word recognition.

• Fluency means rapid, automatic, complete and accurate word recognition .

• “…text comprehension is an expected outcome of fluent reading.”

(Grabe 2009, Reading in a Second language, p. 291)

Page 27: Helping Students Become Fluent, Joyful and Confident · PDF fileRiddle 2 What always runs, but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed, but never sleeps, has a mouth, but

Automatic word recognition

• Automaticity is not speed. Automatic – You don’t think, you don’t try, but it happens. (no efforts)

Only when each word is recognized automatically, a reader can spare time for its meaning and the message of the whole text.

Quick eye fixation

• Your eyes are fixed on each word as you read.

• Reading fast means your eye fixation on each word is very quick.

(Nation, 2007)

• From: Planespotting Hueber Verlag Level 1 Chapter 1 At the airport Gary Kent is watching planes on a Thursday afternoon. He’s sitting beside a road next to the airport. A big plane is taking off. It comes along the runway. The noise is loud. The plane takes off and flies over some trees near Gary. It’s a 747 with a blue and yellow tail. That’s Lufthansa Flight 9745 to Bangkok, thinks Gary, There it goes! Gary is thirteen. He and his family live near Sydney Airport. The planes come over their house. Gary’s mother doesn’t like them. ‘They make a lot of noise’ she says. But Gary likes the noise. And he loves watching planes—he’s a planespotter. (107 words)

What is important for fluency?

• Quick decoding (bottom-up training)

• Meeting words many times, in context (top-down training)

-This will help process each word quickly

• Reading easy material

• Strategy training (moving away from slow, word by word reading)
