Skimming Reading Strategy

WALT skim an unknown text so that we can QUICKLY get an understanding of it.

• I can decide if a book has useful information I need, or whether I want to read it for pleasure.

These are the things I can do to skim read

1. look at the blurb.
2. look at the pictures.
3. find the key words.
4. look at the title.
5. read the first page to see if you like the book.
