Some Techniques in teaching Reading

There are lots of techniques that a teacher may apply in their class; however, the teachers have to be careful in choosing the technique that they want to use. A teacher has to consider the students grade and also their language level before applying the technique. Here some example of the techniques that the teachers may use in teaching reading subject. 

v  Flashboard, it is use for early stage of reading

Here the teachers have to provide themselves with some flashboard. The flashboards are the same with the flashcard but in flashboard it consists of the letter of the words meanwhile in flashcard it consists of the picture of the words. How to apply this technique is the same with the way the teachers apply flashcard. So they flash the board as fast as possible so that the students will full concentrate on the letters on the boards.

v  Pictures stories, it can be used both for early stage and also intermediate

This technique is very useful when introducing a reading subject to the students. Here the students will find that the reading subject is not a boring. The students will have some stories that accompanied by some pictures so if the students find it hard to understand the text they will still be able to make sense of it through the pictures. In addition, they will find the reading text is enjoyable for they will see lots of pictures in the text.
