Books, newspapers, or magazines may be approached in stages.

Pre-reading stage

  • Engage students interest in the text by asking questions about it, eg: "How many paragraphs are in this passage?" or, "What do the pictures in the lesson tell you?"
  • Write the key words of the topic on the board and explaining them to the students.
  • Give simple information about the reading topic.

While reading stage

The first reading procedure

This stage is also called "reading for purpose". Therefore, reading here is for a certain purpose, a certain goal must be achieved by the students themselves, with the guide of the teacher. For example, the teacher asks the students to write down the words that begin with the letter "T" while the teacher reads aloud. Another example is that the teacher may ask the students to mark the difficult words in the passage to explain them later on.

The second reading procedure

In this stage, the teacher and his students discuss the topic of the passage. However, the teacher must prepare in advance a number of questions about the passage and write them down on the board. The students then answer these questions with the supervision of the teacher not with his help.

The last reading procedure

This stage is the interactive stage, where the students interactive with the teacher and read the passage one by one or by group to reach the goal of making the students understand the passage and read it correctly.

Post-reading stage

In this stage, the earlier two stages are evaluated. This stage contains answering the book's exercises and questions that related to the reading passage. If the students answer these questions correctly with a less interference by the teacher, the goals of the lesson are achieved. However, the teacher must finish ten minutes earlier, giving him enough time to evaluate the students understanding of the lesson. Therefore, the teacher can repeat the lesson to the students who do not understand in a quick and comprehensive way.
