Reading Strategies 2

I feel that these reading strategies that we have been given are very important in education. I look back into my past and realize that my teachers have used these strategies on me. I have used some of these strategies today. I don't think that some people have been taught these strategies or their teacher didn't explain how the strategy worked. This semester students have already been giving presentations in classes that I am in. My teacher wanted us to summarize, give main points and use the kwl. As students started to present I could tell they did not know how to summarize. They would take the entire book and put it into a slide show. Also they would not speak about what they knew about the topic and what they learned. I feel that teaching these strategies are very important at the earlier levels of education. This will allow students to be able to go through education without problems and get the education they deserve.
