This technique for teaching reading is based on a top-down processing model and involves the following steps:
K for 'Knowledge of the World'. This means that before reading a passage students should be given the chance to activate their background knowledge of the topic.
S for 'Survey'. Students should look through the passage to find out how long it is, what charts, pictures, headings etc. it contains, and think about what they can learn from it, how useful the information might be and how it relates to them and their class.
Q for 'Question'. Each heading is turned into a question.
R for 'Read'. Students read purposefully to answer the questions. They also underline the main ideas and put a question mark beside any sentence they did not understand.
R for 'Recite'. After reading a paragraph, the student covers it and checks if the main idea can be expressed in their own words. If not, it is marked with a question mark to show rereading is necessary.
R for 'Review'. After finishing the passage, the student looks back at the markings and reviews the main ideas noted. Any sections question marked are reread.
R for 'Reflect'. After reading the whole passage, the student reflects on how useful the information will be, paying attention to the connection between the passage and the student's own knowledge.
