HOW I USE P2R BY CHRIS LICHTI

WHAT IS P2R ? PREVIEW READ ACTIVLY REVIEW THIS IS AN EXCELENT SYSTEM FOR HOW TO READ A BOOK OF ANY SORT, AND REALLY BE ABLE TO TAKE IN AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL BECOME MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT AS YOU ADVANCE IN SCHOOL.

THE PREVIOUS PROECTS THAT HELP WITH P2R THINK BACK TO THE READING ROLES SUPER HEROES I MADE MAGNET MAN (CONNECTING) THE INTERIGATOR (QUESTIONING) PEDRO PICASSO (ILLISTRATING) THINK ABOUT MY LEARNING STYLES VISUAL (I LIKE TO SEE THINGS) INTERPERSONAL (I LIKE WORKING WITH OTHERS) KINESTHETIC (I LIKE TO MOVE AROUND) INTRAPERSONAL(I CAN ALSO WORK BY MYSELF) THINK ABOUT THE 6 READING STRATEGIES IN OUR REFERENCE GUIDE INFERRING PREDICTING QUESTIONING SUMMARIZING VISUALIZING CONNECTING THINK ABOUT WHEN WE WENT THROUGH OUR TEXTBOOKS NOTE TAKING ORGANIZATION

WHAT I DO WHEN I PREVIEW SCHEDULE MY READING. FIGURE 5 MINUTES PER PAGE. CHUNK IT. I ONLY READ 10 PAGES AT A TIME. READ SECTION TITLES AND HEADINGS ASK QUESTIONS IN THE MARGINS THE INTERIGATOR (QUESTIONING STRATEGY)- AFTER YOU READ LATER ON IN THE PROCESS, YOU CAN TEST YOURSELF TO SEE WHAT KNOWLEDGE YOU HAVE ACTUALLY GAINED. LOOK AT GRAPHIC ELEMENTS VISUAL STRATEGY- LOOKING AT THE PICTURES ALWAYS HELPS ME BECAUSE PICTURES ARE MUCH EASIER TO REMEMBER THAN WORDS. IN MY MIND WHEN I THINK OF A PICTURE FROM MY READING, I CAN REMEMBER WHAT WAS BEING TALKED ABOUT ON THE PAGE OF THE PICTURE. TRY TO FIGURE OUT THE MAIN TOPIC PREDICTING STRATEGY.- THIS IS ALWAYS HELPFUL BECAUSE IT KEEPS YOU INVOVE IN THE READING, AND IS A WAY TO QUIZ YOURSELF THINK ABOUT WHAT I ALREADY KNOW MAGNET MAN (CONNECTING STRATEGY)- MAKE CONNECTIONS FROM THE READING TO WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW. DO THIS SO YOU DON’T GO TO THE EXTRA WORK OF LEARNING SOMETHING TWICE. NOTICE THE TEXT THAT IS COLORED, ITALICIZED, BOLDED

WHAT I DO WHEN I READ ACTIVLY GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING OF THE CHUNK. READ A SECTION, THEN TAKE NOTES ON IT. IT HELPS TO THINK ABOUT OUR TEXTBOOKS THAT WE PRACTICED WITH, WE WOULD READ AND THEN TAKE NOTES, OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT FULLY UNDERSTAND THE READING, BECAUSE MULTI-TASKING DOESN’T WORK. KEEP YOUR NOTES ORGANIZED- I LIKE TO USE BULLET POINTS, TO KEEP MY NOTES NEAT SO THAT I CAN FIND MY NOTES AGAIN LATER. WRITE DOWN SOME MORE QUESTIONS. THE INTERIGATOR (QUESTIONING STRATEGY)- THIS IS ANOTHER PERFECT OPROTUNITY TO WRITE DOWN SOME MORE QUESTIONS. BUT DON’T ANSWER THEM YET. WRITE DOWN ANYTHING YOU WANT TO DISCUSS IN CLASS INTERPERSONAL LEARNING STYLE (WORKING WITH OTHERS)- WHEN CLASS TIME COMES AROUND, YOU AND YOUR CLASS CAN GIVE YOUR OPINIONS ON THE READING.

WHAT I DO WHEN I REVIEW GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING OF THE CHUNK SUMMARIZE WHAT YOU JUST READ EITHER IN A GROUP OR BY YOURSELF SUMMARIZING- IT IS GOOD TO DO THIS BECAUSE YOU MUST SHOW THAT YOU KNOW THE READING BY WRITING DOWN A SHORTER VERSION OF IT. INTERPERSONAL STYLE- CHOOSING TO WORK WITH OTHERS. INTRAPERSONAL STYLE- CHOOSING TO WORK BY YOURSELF. TRY TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS IN THE MARGINS THE INTERIGATOR (QUESTIONING)- QUESTIONING IS MORE THAN JUST ASKING QUESTIONS. IF YOU DON’T ANSWER THEM YOU DON’T LEARN ANYTHING; SO GO BACK AND ANSWER THEM.

WHY IS P2R IMPORTANT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE ALWAYS REMEMBER TO USE THIS P2R STRATEGY. YOU MAY THINK IT IS OK NOW JUST TO READ STRAIGHT THROUGH YOUR TEXTBOOK, BUT AS YOU MOVE ON IN YOUR EDUCATION, THE READING GETS A LOT LONGER AND HARDER. IT REALLY SAVES YOU TIME, BECAUSE IF YOU JUST READ STRAIGHT THROUGH, YOU WILL HAVE TO READ IT 2 OR 3 TIMES TO UNDERSTAND IT.

P2R IN THIS SLIDE SHOW IF I WERE TO READ THIS SLIDE SHOW FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME, I WOULD STILL USE THE P2R STRATEGY. PREVIEW- I WOULD GO THROUGH AND LOOK AT THE TITLES AND SEE IF I CAN PREDICT WHAT IT IS ABOUT. THEN I WOULD PROBABLY LOOK AT THE BULLETS, BUT NOT THE SUB-BULLETS. I WOULD WRITE DOWN SOME QUESTIONS I MAY HAVE, AND TRY TO MAKE SOME PREDICTIONS. READ ACTIVELY- I WOULD GO THROUGH ALL OF THE BULLETS AND SUB-BULLETS. THEN I WOULD WRITE DOWN THE IMPORTANT THINGS. I WOULD LOOK THROUGH ALL OF OUR PREVIOUS PROJECTS AT THE BEGINNING. THEN, WHEN I LOOK THROUGH THE REST, I WOULD TRY TO SEE WHICH PROJECTS RELATE TO WHAT WE HAVE TO DO. I WOULD THEN THINK OF SOME MORE QUESTIONS AND WRITE THEM DOWN. REVIEW- I WOULD TURN MY COMPUTER AWAY FROM ME. I WOULD GO THROUGH MY SHEET OF QUESTIONS IN RANDOM ORDER. IF THERE WERE SOME THAT I COULDN’T ANSWER, I WOULD HAVE TO CHECK MY NOTES. IF MY NOTES WERE NOT DETAILED ENOUGH TO HELP ME ANSWER THE QUESTIONS, I WOULD GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING AND ADD TO THEM. THEN I WOULD GO BACK AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS.
