Look for key words in different print
Circle or underline any difficult words as a vocabulary preview
Make a PREDICTION about the main idea or central theme

12. Remember-don’t read all the material!
All you want is an idea, so only take a few minutes to conduct your survey!

13. QUESTION
Formulate information (Wh) questions on what you have surveyed
These will help you to concentrate or focus while reading!
For example: the title, visuals, the first lines of the different paragraphs etc.
Follow the organization of the article!

14. READ Read thoroughly and actively, focusing on your questions
This gives your reading a purpose
As you read, you can annotate (underline and take notes in the margin)
Writing reinforces what you read

15. RECITE
Try to answer the questions you formulated based on what you remember
If you have problems, then these are the areas you will pay closer attention to when you review
Recite after a long section; repeat information and reread if necessary

16. REVIEW
