Top U.S. Reading Strategies • Get the meaning of words and phrases that you don’t know by using the source materials, or just use the materials you have that have already used the words and phrases. • Before you read, preview your reading to get a hint of what you’re about to read and then make predictions. • Relate what you are reading to other sources you know and have read before because building connections helps keep it fresh. • Create a graphic organizers, outlines, drawing, or any other visual help while reading to keep the story in check. • Continuously check and clarify for understanding with a reading buddy or reading clubs (on or off-line). • Read age-appropriate material with fluency and accuracy, but build your skills by reading challenging materials. • Use any information you gather to explain and support questions and predictions about what you are reading. • Interpret what you read using story elements, different points of view, and personal themes. • Compare, contrast, and think about ideas and information from various sources that relate to your reading to build your opinions. • Summarize what you have read in your own words using general details that relate to what you are reading. • Take note on how the reading and illustrations influence how you read when the author uses foreshadowing, flashbacks, colors, strong words and language, action, and tempo. • Carefully look at tables that display information and data and other in visual ways to show important information.
