Reading Approach: Pio Melancolico JR

The document discusses the reading approach method for teaching beginning readers. It focuses on having students identify meaning from texts rather than individual letters or words. Only the grammar necessary for comprehension is taught. Key activities include skimming, scanning, extensive reading, and intensive reading. The teacher's role is to motivate learners and support strategy development. Instructional materials should facilitate meaning from chunks of text and integrate vocabulary. Advantages are its suitability for large classes and vocabulary building through reading, while a disadvantage is its lack of emphasis on speaking skills.
