How to improve reading ability in students?



Developing reading skills will be helpful for the students in carrying out their studies and also in their future life wherever they go. This ability has to be cultivated in students from their childhood itself. When they are able to read well, they can learn well on their own and will understand the lessons properly. We would have heard a proverb that says, “Practice makes a man perfect.” This well suits for improving the read skills.
As teachers/educators and parents, it is our responsibility to make students read well.
Here are few methods to improve reading ability in students:-
* Create them opportunities such as preparing charts with pictures & words and post in on the walls which enables them to read and encourage them to do so.
*Ask students to read aloud in the classroom, make sure everyone gets a chance to read. This can be practiced in home too.
*If possible buy newspapers, magazines etc.., allocate reading hour for the students. While they read those things see to that they have a dictionary with them so that they can understand what they learn.
*Take students to library which is great place for improving the reading ability.
*Ask them to read books that are interested to read more such as story books, novels and book on general topics as this has the capacity to increase the reading speed.
