Skim and Speed Reading Practice: Breaking Barriers
<p>Do you have pupils who can decode but need to speed up their test technique?<br />
Do you have pupils who cannot skim for gist?<br />
Do you want to inspire pupils with texts about people who have overcome barriers in their lives?</p>
<p>This resource contains 9 texts that teach pupils how to approach texts when reading for gist. Each activity contains a short text with an activity / discussion activity. These activities will only need about 10-15 minutes of lesson time each so are ideal to fit in during a busy timetable or an intervention group.</p>
