Now a question about reading strategies mentioned last week:

What two strategies do you use when reading a really long text?

How to skim a text

1. look at the pictures
2. read the first and last paragraph
3. read the title and first sentence of each paragraph
4. look through the text for specific words/numbers

How to skim a text

This is a fast way to find out where to find the answer to a question:

Read the title and  first sentence of every paragraph. 

This will tell you which paragraph contains the info you need.

Then read this paragraph to get more details.

Skimming vs Scanning

• Skimming ->  Read title and the  first sentence of every paragraph
• Scanning -> Searching for specific information. Scan the text for certain words, numbers, etc.
