FAQ: frequently asked reading questions

How do you define reading?
Reading means looking at words on paper or a screen and understanding what they say. It's like a puzzle where you put letters together to make sense. When you read, you can enjoy stories, learn new things, or get information.

Why do we use reading?
We use reading to gain knowledge, connect with others, and enjoy stories. Reading helps us learn about the world, from history to science. It also allows us to communicate and share ideas through books, articles, and messages.

How does reading work?
When you read, your eyes see letters and words. Your brain then turns these into thoughts and pictures. It's like a movie in your mind, and you make it happen by understanding the words and sentences.

How can I practise my reading skills?
To get better at reading, read regularly. Start with books or articles that match your level. Take your time, and if you don't know a word, try to figure it out from the context. Keep a dictionary handy and ask someone for help if you're stuck. Reading a little bit every day will help you improve.
