1 Teaching new words and structures
The purpose of this step for teaching reading is to find the words and phrases that students find most difficult and help them to understand．Some of the more difficult words and phrases you will be able to pick out yourself, but some which seem easy to you may cause problems for your students．One way of helping them learn new words is to ask them to study the text before the lesson and find out the meaning of any word they are unsure of．The advantage of this is that the students will come prepared with any problems they have．You can then deal with these problems in the lesson and this is a very efficient way of identifying any student\'s misunderstandings．A second way of helping them is to choose the words you think they will find difficult and pre-teach them before you begin the reading．This approach is very effective for helping students to concentrate on the ideas of a reading passage and not worry about the meaning of unfamiliar words．
2 Understanding ideas
This is the purpose of the reading and so it is important that the students learn to use all the clues in the text to help them understand the gist of what they are reading．So encourage them to look at the pictures and the heading and guess what the text might be about．Then ask the class to read the passage silently．Sometimes you can ask them a question to focus their reading．It depends on the passage．When dealing with the story of Anne and her diary:
1 Help students imagine what it might be like if they had to stay in their bedroom for a whole year．They could not leave it even to go to the WC or get a cup of tea．How would they feel?
2 Ask students if they are only allowed to have five things with you in the hiding place because there is very little room, what would they choose?
3 Ask students to guess why the windows had to stay closed．
4 Consider what Anne means by the word \"crazy.\" In this context, \"crazy\" has the informal meaning of \"enthusiastic\" but its formal meaning is \"mad.\" However, be sure to give the students the chance to explore the possible meanings for this word before explaining it to them （if necessary）．
5 In the same way, ask the students to consider what \"spellbound\" means．In this context it means \"to concentrate with delight for some time.\"
Alternatively, you could ask students to tell you what is the main idea for each paragraph．Make sure that they do it in one sentence．This is very useful because it is making them analyze what is important and what is not．It also makes them produce a concise answer．
3 Discussion of ideas
This is where the students should discuss the ideas put forward in the reading passage．They should think whether they agree or disagree with the writer．It does not matter whether they agree or disagree．What is important is that they have a reason for what they say．So encourage them to put forward their own ideas, either criticizing the text or using it as a support．Think about: |
