SKIMMING
• QUICKLY IDENTIFY MAIN IDEAS OF A TEXT
• SKIMMING IS 3 TO 4 TIMES FASTER REGULAR READING
• USED WHEN THERE IS A LOT OF MATERIAL AND A
SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME
HOW TO SKIM?
• READ THE FIRST AND LAST PARAGRAPH
• READ HEADINGS, SUBHEADINGS, TITLES, SUBTITLES, AND ILLUSTRATIONS
• READ THE FIRST SENTENCE OF EVERY PARAGRAPH
• SKIMMING WORKS WELL WITH DATES, NAMES AND PLACES
1. When you find the sentence that has the information you seek, read the entire
sentence.
2. In scanning, you must be willing to skip over large sections of text without
reading or understanding them.
3. Scanning can be done at 1500 or more words per minute.
