My English Lesson

Today, I attended the English lesson at half past four. I started the lesson by reading aloud the comprehension paragraph in my blog. I learnt to read phrase by phrase. I also learnt to read aloud a syllable sound in each phrase louder and longer. This helped me remember what I read.

When we were correcting the comprehension questions on the computer, the computer monitor blacked out because the electricity supply had stopped. It took about two minutes, the electricity started working again.

We recorded the reading. I read a comprehension passage with the title, "I was awarded bronze certificate for my Olympic Maths competition". I read very slowly but I could understand all the message. Then I answered all the questions correctly.

Now, I am sitting with Terri and I am looking at the screen.

I will write some questions for the passage as my homework.

1.How can the author help herself remember what she reads?

Reading Comprehension

I think reading comprehension is an interesting skill to learn. I have four suggestions to share with you to improve the comprehension skill when reading.

1. When you read, you must understand and remember what you read. To remember the story, you can use imagined pictures to help you remember the message.
2. Reading and thinking should happen when you read. Without thinking, you can't understand the message.
3. When there are some unknown words, you can skip the words by just saying "bah..bah.." or pronounce the words if you can. You shouldn't stop too long to think about the unknown words.
4. Read words in groups or phrases. Link the words into phrases when you read. You should not put a pause after reading a single word.
   

If you follow my advice, your reading comprehension can improve very soon.
