The Reading Process DURING *Read with a purpose (and a pencil) *Create some personal connection to the text *PAUSE & REFLECT *Ask yourself, “What am I looking for?” or “Why am I reading?” STOP!…Think of your purpose. Ask yourself what you are trying to learn. Say, “When I am finished reading, I will know…” Take notes in the margins of the text *Make the book personal by asking questions like, “Have I ever heard of this before?”, “Is there anything surprising?” and “Has this happened to me?” Thinking Notes conversations
The Reading Process AFTER *Pause, reflect, and look back *Reread to find out things you might have missed the first time through *Remember what you learned *Stop and think about what you read.
