Critical Reading N Thinking Skills

2day we still doing Reading Skills- Making Inferences. Its just same like the things we studied on 4 April 2005, just its more complicated n u have to guess the mesning in the text. Miss Anita Jammie teach us how to built Inference Skills. Below is the notes given by Miss Anita Jamie:-

Building Inference Skills

Read beyond the words. Fill in details n information based on the writer's suggestions n ur own expectation.

Question urself about ur reading: Why is tis person doing wat she is doing? What can i infer from the scene? Supply the answers on the basis of the writer's hints n ur own knowledge.

If a writer describe a person, try to understand the person from how she moves, wat she says, wat she looks like. U can infer things about character from the way a person behave. Build a picture of the person in ur mind, based ur picture on the writer's description of how she acts n wat she looks like.

If u cannot easily answer a question about wat u have read, remember to use inference skills. Return to the part of the reading where u would expect to find the answer. Then see if the writer suggests something that u urself have to supply more explicity.

I hope u ppl can get some idea after u read tis.
