Hi! In this meeting, we learn about Vocabulary Knowledge for Effective Reading, In this material we guess unknown vocabulary. And the best strategy for figuring out an unfamiliar word is to try to guess what it means. It also doesn't interfere with our reading, and we enjoy reading more because we don't have to stop reading often. Because when we try to guess the meaning of an unknown word, we can use the text around the word-context. Where one sentence may be enough to tell us the meaning of the word. Besides Vocabulary Knowledge for Effective Reading, Using grammar and Recognizing words is also another way that can help us guess the meaning and understand the author's ideas. In addition, in this material we also learn about synonyms, summary words and referents in a longer essay. And in the material above we do activities in the form of exercises, usually we do activities in Syam-ok but this time the learning process is a little different, we use the OneNote a...

In this learning material, we are also directed to search for a book and then find out the contents of the book from its cover, and look for information about the title, author, and other important information. We also create podcasts with our podcast material derived from information from the books we read. We are also doing some exercises in Syam-ok on this material.
