Some tips for reading your books.


Hello, how are you doing?
As you know,we are having some sessions on the books "Lost Love and Other Stories", for 3rd of ESO, and "The Room in the Tower and other Ghost Stories" for 4th of ESO, and some of you find them difficult to understand.
Rememeber these few tricks that may help you:
-Use your dictionary but don't look up all the words you don't know.
-Try to get a general gist of your reading: the most important information.
-Look at the drawings to help you understand the story.
-Have a paper at hand and write down everything you want: name of characters, what happens at a specific moment, vocabulary, what happens at the end...rememeber that all this will help you in your reading test.
Don't give up, I'm sure you all can do it very well!!!
