English is the main language of the world.There are 4 important skills for
learning English of students. One of them is reading skill, so everyone need to
be able to read book, documents, computers, mobile devices, signs or
billboards. Reading helps students to learn and acquire English. We can divide
reading into extensive reading and intensive reading, moreover; there are other
activities such as: reading activities, responding to a text, read more
comprehension, and etc. for practice reading skill of students.
First,
Extensive reading is a reading as much as possible by without dictionary. This
lets you get more complex sentences with ease, reinforces the words you already
know and helps you learn new words from context .(Julian
Bamford and Richard R. Day)
Second, the intensive reading activities include
skimming a text for specific information to answer true or false statements or
filling gaps in a summary, scanning a text to match headings to paragraphs, and
scanning jumbled paragraphs and then reading them carefully to put them onto
the correct order. We often get students to read intensively in class.
This means that they will look at a short reading text and do various
exercise based on it, moreover; reading activities that we can ask students to
do almost anything with a reading text. Here are some of the most common
activities. They designed so that the students get a general understanding of
the text first, for instance; when students read about the text and we can ask
them why or what they agree with or disagreed with. We can divide the students
into group of three (or more) and
doing for JIGSAW READING activities.
Next, responding to a text. Before teachers give
questions to students, they have to read a text because they have to know about
details in a text. When they know, we can ask them to respond to it in various
ways. They may answer the questions or discuss whether they liked the text or not.
Finally,
Activities for practice reading skill is Follow-up task. We can follow-up task
by using topic of the text or exploring some of the language in it, for
instance: students can discuss any issues that were in the text. Next, students
can role play from a situation leading from the text, therefore; we can
follow-up tasks by use questions, discuss, role play, research, rewrite, and
etc.
To
sum up, reading necessary skill for learners. If you read more it can develop
your reading skill. There are 2 kinds of reading and other activities for
practice reading skill of learner. Reading helps students to learn and acquire
English.
