Read.
You can read whatever you want: Sports, Illustrated, Jet, and The New York
Times, comic books, the holy bible, your Cheerios box, online blogs or web
articles… whatever! Reading increases your brain power.
o
Look up words you don’t understand in the dictionary.
o
Read assignment questions first to help you identify key points.
o
Take breaks from reading to write down what you learn.
o
Read outside of class to improve your reading skills.
o
Read out loud with
your friends, classmates or parents.
o
Read with a purpose
o
Take reading courses
to improve your reading rate and comprehension
o
Take a speed-reading
course if you desire
o
Take notes while
reading
o
When possible, read
from your own book and materials; this way, you can mark, highlight, cross
reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the book belongs to someone else
or the library, you can’t do this.
o
Read religious
literature
o
Read from the
internet.
o
Read daily. Set a goal
to read a book at least each month. Then a book a week.
