3. Reading
What is reading?
Reading means understanding and remembering the information you find
in a book, poem, newspaper, or magazine. People who read actively and
critically are better able to use the information they find. Reading is
also finding relationships between facts, comparing new information with
things you already know, and determining if statements make sense.
