Today I want to help you with a study reading method known as SQ3R. The letters stand for five steps in the reading process: Survey, Question, Read, Review, Recite. (1) __________________________________. In all study reading, a survey should be the first step. Survey means to look quickly. Don’t stop to read complete sentences. Just look at the important divisions of the material. The second step is question. Try to form questions based on your survey. Use the question words who, what, when, where, why , and how. Now you are ready for the third step. Read. You will be rereading the titles and important words that you look at in the survey. (2) _________________________________. Sometimes it is useful to take notes while you read. I have had students who preferred to underline important points, and it seemed to be just as useful as note taking. What you should do, whether you take notes or underline, is to read actively. Think about what you are reading as a series of ideas, not just a sequence of words. The fourth step is review. Remember the questions that you wrote down before you read the material. You should be able to answer them now. (3) __________________________________________. Concentrate on those. Also review material that you did not consider in your questions. The last step is recite. Try to put the reading into your own words. Summarize it either in writing or orally.
