2. SILENT READING
 Silent Reading- In silent reading there is no
movement of the lips or the tongue.
 But there should be full concentration and the
thoughts should not wonder aimlessly while
they are reading silently.
 Silent reading provides the opportunity to
learn the meanings of many new words in
context

3. PRECAUTIONS
 (i) Only those passages should be read which
can be understood and appreciated
by students.
 (ii) The duration of silent reading should differ
according to the nature of the matter and the
standard of the class.
 (iii) The weak students should be paid more
attention. The paragraph for reading should
not be long.

4.  (v) Necessary instructions must be given
before silent reading.
 (vi) The teacher should be particular about
giving students task of wide reading by
gradually selecting fresh and unseen
paragraph.
PRECAUTIONS CONT…..

5. (i) It saves time because it is quick.
(ii) It saves energy also.
(iii) It initiates self-education and deep study.
(iv) It develops the ability to read with interest.
According to ‘Ryborn’ “It enables
attention and energy to be concentrated on
meaning and so saves a division of attention
resulting in a greater assimilation of information.’
ADVANTAGES

6. LIMITATIONS
 (i) It is not advantageous for beginners.
 (ii) It is also uninteresting.
 (iii) Sometimes students cannot understand some
parts of the passage, but they cannot take the help
of teachers.
 (iv) The mistakes done by students during silent
reading can not be corrected.
 (v) It does not teach correct pronunciation.
 (vi) It cannot be checked if students are really
reading.

7. LOUD READING
 In loud reading, the students are to read aloud so
that their voice is audible.
 He should correct the wrong pronunciation
immediately and give a drill of correct
pronunciation to the whole class.
 There is a controversy on the point whether silent
reading-should be followed by loud reading or vice
versa. Morrison is of the opinion that loud reading
by students should be followed by silent reading,
just the opposite of what is practiced generally in
our schools.

8. ADVANTAGES OF LOUD
READING
 1. Develops stronger vocabulary.
 2. Builds connections between the spoken and
written word.
 3. Provides enjoyment.
 4. Increases attention span.
 5. To enable students to speak English correctly..
 6. Provides a safe way of exploring strong
emotions.
 7. Promotes bonding.

9. PROCEDURE
 Select a Text
 When doing a read-aloud, it is best if all students
have a copy of the text so that they can follow
along.
 Read- alouds can be structured “popcorn style.”
As soon as one student stops reading, another
student can begin.
 Teachers can assign students a section of the text
to read as homework
 Pause for Comments

10. CONCLUSION
In short, all efforts should be made to
develop reading habits among the
students. We should create in them a real
love according to the genre of books and
their needs i.e. short stories, novel, poem,
and others
