SQ3R • A reading strategy directly taught • Develops study skills • A life long skill that aids in reading comprehension
What does it mean? What does it mean? What does it mean? What does it mean? What does it mean?
S = Survey Look over whole chapter BEFORE reading: • Read the title • Read headings and subheadings • Look at pictures, charts, maps, graphs, and read information under each • Read chapter introduction, new words, and summary • Read chapter questions if any • Notice reading aids—italics, bold face print
Q = Question • Write down any chapter questions you will need to answer • Put them aside to answer later • List new vocabulary words to define • Turn headings into questions • Use chapter questions to help using “who, what, when, where, why and how” words
R#1 = Read • Just concentrate on the reading!! • After each paragraph, ask: • What is the main idea? • What are important details about the main idea?
R#2 = Recite This is a very important step! After reading each paragraph take a few seconds to think about what you have read: • Talk out loud • Oral note taking • Highlighting • Underlining • Recall your questions—can you answer them? If not, look back at the information.
R#3 = Review Try to remember what was in each section of the lesson: • What were the main points? • Can you answer the questions? If not, look back and refresh your memory. • Define vocabulary
SQ3R TRY IT. IT WORKS!
