Read quickly.

What do you know now?

Contextualizing

Putting a test into context.

This makes it easier to make sense of new information.

You're looking for reference points. Is it a story about the entire world or just a certain place. Is it about history, current events or the future?

In what kind of context would you put this article?

What's the difference between
skimming and scanning?

Now we're going to practice reading at both levels.
