The next macro skill that we are going to tackle is
READING.
Now what is READING? Anyone would like to
answer? Me sir.
Alright what’s your answer (name of student)?
Reading sir is the ability to process text and understand its meaning. That’s right Mr. (students last name).
Now as of what Mr. (students last name) said,
Reading is the ability to process text and understand its meaning, and integrate what the reader already knows.
So it is important for us to know how to read so
that we can function well because reading is one of the important things we need in order for us live in this modern world, not knowing how to read is really difficult for us to able to stand for our self without asking help to someone who is able to read,
And an example of this situation is you don’t
know how to read but you need to buy a medicine and you don’t know which one says BIOGESIC and you are shy to ask help from someone because you don’t know how to read, so you might end up buying the wrong medicine
That is why knowing how to read is very
important for us, not for just to avoid shame but it is for our own benefit.
