Reading Comprehension
To better understand and remember what you read.

To become proficient in reading, you must be an:

 Active reader – don’t let the words slide by.

Understanding what you read

 Take a look through the piece
 Pay attention to some of the text’s main features
 Is there an introduction
 Look for headings
 Does it have bold words
 Pictures and captions
 Ask yourself some questions – helps stimulate your curiosity
 Think about what you already know about the topic.

As you read
Your active reading continues as you read the text. Don't just let the words skim by you.
Really pay attention and interact with them. Here are some tips to help you stay
focused:

 Read slowly. Reading isn't a race.

 Try to find the answers to the questions you created before you started reading,
but don't ignore other information.
 Write some notes either in the margins if the book belongs to you or on a
separate sheet of paper if it doesn't. Jot down main points that you notice. Note
interesting bits of information that catch your attention. Write down questions
that you have and points you don't understand. Mark key words and their
definitions. Make connections to other things you've read.
 Underline, highlight, and/or circle important elements in the text if the book
belongs to you.
 Consider making a little outline as you go. Identify the main point of each
paragraph and the supporting evidence. Your outline doesn't have to be formal.
You can use your own style. You just want to be sure you catch the text's
important ideas.
 Look up words you don't know. Don't slack on this one. Those words could be
essential to your understanding of the text.
 Yes, this seems like a lot of work, but the whole point is to interact with the text
as much as possible. This is the best way to understand and remember what you
read.
