Article about Teaching Reading

Teaching Reading
Traditionally, the purpose of learning to read in a language has been to have access to the
literature written in that language. In language instruction, reading materials have traditionally
been chosen from literary texts that represent "higher" forms of culture.
This approach assumes that students learn to read a language by studying its vocabulary,
grammar, and sentence structure, not by actually reading it. In this approach, lower level learners
read only sentences and paragraphs generated by textbook writers and instructors. The reading of
authentic materials is limited to the works of great authors and reserved for upper level students
who have developed the language skills needed to read them.
The communicative approach to language teaching has given instructors a different
understanding of the role of reading in the language classroom and the types of texts that can be
used in instruction. When the goal of instruction is communicative competence, everyday
materials such as train schedules, newspaper articles, and travel and tourism. Web sites become
appropriate classroom materials, because reading them is one way communicative competence is
developed. Instruction in reading and reading practice thus become essential parts of language
teaching at every level.

Reading Purpose and Reading Comprehension


Reading is an activity with a purpose. A person may read in order to gain information or verify
existing knowledge, or in order to critique a writer's ideas or writing style. A personmay also
read for enjoyment, or to enhance knowledge of the language being read. The purpose(s) for
reading guide the reader's selection of texts.
The purpose for reading also determines the appropriate approach to reading comprehension. A
person who needs to know whether she can afford to eat at a particular restaurant needs to
comprehend the pricing information provided on the menu, but does notneed to recognize the
name of every appetizer listed. A personreading poetry for enjoymentneeds to recognize the
words the poet uses and the ways they are put together, but does notneed to identify main idea
and supporting details. However, a person using a scientific article to support an opinion needs to
know the vocabulary that is used, understand the facts and cause-effect sequences that are
presented, and recognize ideas that are presented as hypotheses and givens.
