Today's Lesson

There are two weeks left of regular lessons

MAKE IT COUNT! :) 

Let's get to work!

The English exam is 2,5 hours long

It is only reading

You need to build up stamina and focus to do this

Let's get to work!

How do you practise reading?

What is the first thing you should do when approaching a reading test

1. Read the text
2. Read the questions
3. Look at the pictures/other noticable aspects
4. Read the title

Step by Step

1. Read the title

2. Look at the pictures + other aspects that stand out

3. Read the (first) question

4. Read the part of the text that goes with the question

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all the questions are answered

6. New text: start at step 1

How do you answer open questions?

1. In Dutch
2. In English

Tips

• Look up vocabulary that you do not understand (only if it stops you from understanding the bigger picture). Context can usually help you.
  You can use a dictionary for the real test.
• Make sure you can point at the answer in the text, this should make you more confident that it's correct. 
• Do exactly what they ask. For example, when they ask you to quote (citeer), do not do it the Dutch way. Do what they want. 

Practise Time

We will work on exam texts together

OR

You can work on old exam texts by yourself

What will you do the rest of this lesson?
