Trang 6 Principles of teaching reading
1 Reading is not a passive skill
2 Students need to be engaged with what they
are reading
3 Students should be encouraged to respond to
the content of the text, not just the language.
4 Prediction is a major factor of reading
5 Match the task to the topic
6 Good teachers exploit the reading text to the
full.

Trang 7 Stages of a reading lesson
Pre-reading stage
The pre-reading should be implemented to activate and
build knowledge of learners or motivate students to read as well as let them be familiar with some of the language
needed in coping with the text
giving them a context and by pre-teaching some of the
most difficult language
stimulating interest by setting the scene
encouraging them to make predictions about the contents
of the text from the title
giving students a clear and authentic purpose for reading the text
asking them one/two guiding questions

Trang 8 While-reading stage
The while-reading stage intends to help students to
understand the specific content and the rhetorical structure
of the text Teachers use questions and tasks to practice
appropriate skills and to make students aware of those skills Teachers might
- allow students to read silently, using different skills and
strategies
- encourage speed in reading, give a time limit
- allow students to co-operate and help each other
- check students’ reading comprehension by using different questions/tasks/activities (True/false, matching, multiple
choice …)
- ask students to guess the meaning of the new words

reviewing the content, work on bottom-up concerns such as grammar, vocabulary and discourse feature and consolidate what has been read relating the information from the text to the students’ knowledge, interests

Teachers consolidate the language materials having been taught by a variety of
writing/speaking/ listening activities or
tasks
