Pre-reading Activities to Motivate Learners
John Lowe
International Thomson Publishing
What is the purpose of pre-reading activities? How do pre-reading
activities enhance reading comprehension? How can students
activate their prior knowledge of the subject? Using sources from a variety
of reading texts, the presenter will examine these and other questions,
and suggest activities to motivate your students to read.
