READING

· Easy readers: develop sub skills of guessing words, schematic knowledge, reading for main points, identifying topics and reading for specific information. NOT to look up the dictionary for every word. Give them a limit of words they should look up.

· Jumbled up story: Cut up a story and students try to put it together in the right order.

· Each student starts a story then passes it on to the next student who reads it adds some more and passes it on. Continue this story until the paper is used up.

· When students have done writing for homework swap the work and ask for peer correction. A whole class feedback afterwards.

· Put a couple of stories cut up all round the wall of the classroom. Pairs have to go round and put the story together not taking the parts off the wall.
