On Monday 31st October, I studied about “Extensive reading”
that continued from last week ago and started to learn about “Read faster she opened the Cambridge
dictionary for teaching how to pronounce the words “accurate” and “accuracy.”
accurate (adj.) /ˈæk.jə.rət/ = correct, exact, and without
any mistakes.
accuracy (n.) /ˈæk.jə.rə.si/ = the fact of being exact or
correct
Then, the teacher
told us about “fluency is more important than accuracy.” After that, she gave
corrective the “Vocabulary focus 1” and “Vocabulary focus 2”. Before she was
corrective, she opened the Cambridge dictionary for teaching “how to pronounce”
and “what is the meaning” of the words reluctant, effective, consistent,
elective, and acquire.
And then, she told
some abbreviations such as “PhD.” “B.Ed.”
and “M.B.A” etc.
PhD. = Doctor of Philosophy
B.Ed. = Bachelor of Education
M.B.A. = Master of Business Administration
After that, she
gave us the handout that was about “Read faster”. Before we learned this
lesson, she told us to speak with my partner about “How do you improve your
speaking, listening, and writing skills” and “How do you read in English”. Then,
the teacher assigned us to think and talk with my friend that was about “What
are obstacles to faster reading.
So, I told my friend that “I think if I read I had to
understand about the topic, I should read 2 or 3 time. First time, I scan the
word if I don’t know of meaning I guess word. And second time, I fine definition
of difficult word and the last time I read again and compose meaning”
And then, we did
the activities in the handout.
1. Good reader always reads at the same speed.
2. You should focus on one word at a time.
3. You can only understand every word a text if you read it
slowly.
4. You need to understand every word of what you are
reading.
5. You should always read from the first word in a text to
the last.
6. You should use a dictionary as soon as you come across an
unknown word.
And then, I
did the next activities that about “Hints for reading practice”. First, the
teacher asked us to read the passage so fast and do not stop. It was difficult
for me.
I found the faster
reading that was easy and good for me because of it made me used the time for
reading decrease from the past.
I used skimming,
scanning, and guessing the meaning for read in this lesson
I felt very good
for this lesson because most content wasn’t difficult.
