Reading strategies:

Exploring a text = Read everything that is standing out e.g. titles, subheadings, pictures, lists, diagrams, different fonts -> to  find out topic of the text. 

Reading globally = 

      - Read title and subheadings

      - introduction

      -conlcusion

      - ELZA: eerste en laatste zin alinea

Scanning = looking for specific information e.g. names, dates, numbers etc. 

Reading intently = read everything carefully. Look up difficult words

Soorten leestechnieken:

Uitstekende delen: titel, kopjes, ander lettertype, plaatjes, inzetjes (om onderwerp te achterhalen ivm ophalen voorkennis)
Globaal lezen (reading globally) = oppervlakkig, achterhaal je alleen belangrijkste info => tekstsoort

    Lees titel + tussenkopjes

    Lees inleiding en slot

    ELZA: Lees eerste en laatste zin iedere alinea

    Opsomming

Scannend lezen: op zoek naar specifiek woord of woordgroep (om vragen te beantwoorden)

Intensief lezen: heel secuur de gehele tekst lezen. (voor vragen noodzakelijk)

• Zoek belangrijkste woorden/zin in iedere alinea
  
• Onderstreep structuur aanwijzende woorden (First of all…, secondly…, which was followed by… , referening to, previously mentioned…, another…,
  
• let op de schrijfwijze van de naam (lang/kort) en logische volgorde van de tekstopbouw

Zoek betekenis belangrijke woorden op

Step-by-step plan reading

1.  Explore a text -> What is it about?

1A. DO NOT READ THE ENTIRE TEXT! 

2. Read the question: Do you have to be in a specific paragraph? -> highlight it

3. What kind of question is it? 

Kind of questions

- Multiple choice question

- Open question

- Gap question

- Statement question

What question is the most difficult?

Multiple choice

Step-by-step

1. Read the question. Not the answers! WAny useful information? 

2. In the example you can see that you have to look at paragraph 1. Read paragraph 1, nothing more! Mark signal words.

3. Try to answer the question for yourself,

4, Now read the answers. 

5. Which ones are nonsense?  Cross them through.

6. Choose your answer

Signal words:

 

• Reden / Oorzaak    (As-because-for-since)
  

• Tegenstelling        (although – besides – but – however- still - yet)
• Doel            (in order to – so that – to)
• Voorwaarde        (if (only) – provided – unless)
• Tijd            (after–as–before–meanwhile–once –since,)
• Gevolg            (after all-as a result-consequently-)
• Uitbreiding        (and–besides-too-also-even-in addition,)
• Vergelijking     (as well as-for example-likewise-similarly,)

Signaal woorden uit je hoofd leren en hun betekenis en doel = beter tekstbegrip.
