    This is definitely true, I was barely able to read growing up due to undiagnosed learning issues and an inability to get my eyes to focus on the same place on the page. I'd look down a the page and there was no guarantee that what I'd be reading would be literally on the page. Frequently, it would be a random assortment of the words that were there. So, I wouldn't qualify as completely illiterate, I could still read, I just couldn't count on anything that I wrote or read being an accurate reflection of what was on the paper.
    I did eventually manage to get over that with a lot of time and patience, but it wasn't until I was in my 30s that I could really read the range of topics that a college educated individual should.

    When reading, you will get the constant review of high frequency (most often used) words and due to this constant review, in the process, memorize the meaning of these words. For low frequency words that only pop up several times in a whole book, you have to take additional measures to memorize them and I suggest using Anki to make these words comprehensible. By Krashens theory, comprehensibility is required for learning to occur. If you have an understanding of what the word means, then you can gain an understanding of how it is used by reading, i.e., getting compehensible input.

      @@stasiekkowalski6411 You may have already closed the gap. But I've been recommended reading books meant for native speaking kids in 2nd or 3rd grade. Books that seem like they might be too easy but at the same time still have that 5% of unknown words that you will absorb naturally through context. After a few of those, you can gradually increase in complexity

    • @jb_1971
      @jb_1971 6 месяцев назад

      It strikes you as true at first, but here is the thing: I believe I have a decent vocabulary in my first language, and I have NEVER done anything like that. I just read a lot as a kid. Clearly, there is a way around, and I believe it is reading multiple books by the same author and absorbing his idiom. This way you get the repetitions of words that are very rare in the language in general.

      @@stasiekkowalski6411I would suggest to read what you really want to read even if it’s difficult and the process might be slow at the beginning. Just keep reading and eventually you’ll end up being good at it. In my opinion you’ll never be completely ready to read and understand everything unless you start doing that. It’s been working for me and I’m still doing that. I can’t read books for kids or other silly stuff I just read what I like. It’s like getting into cold water if you do that slowly by putting your toes first and slowly progressing it’ll take a long time to get used to it. It’s way more better just to jump into it right away.

    I read somewhere that kids in Sweden don't start to read until they are seven years old and by the time they are nine, they outperform their counterparts in the UK, who have been reading twice as long as the students in Sweden.
    It's hard to explain this using the "Comprehensible Input" method, because I learnt to read in the UK and I did so by reading "Compresensible" and enjoyable books.
    I posit that 'maturity' has a lot to do with a kid's ability to acquire a language using "Cempresensible input".

    So Tutu read comics. Me? I owe my love for English and reading to a school activity involving the SRA Reading Laboratory. That is first hand proof to me that SSR works. The best motivator for reading is reading itself indeed. One might say the SRA is reading gamified.
    I can also attest to the power of school libraries because I loved hanging out there when I was in elementary school.
    This is such a good lecture and I learned a lot even though it's from 2012 and times have changed.

    In this video, Krashen discusses the importance of reading as an example of the comprehensible input. I tried this with my teenagers students, but most of them found it hard at the beginning especially when the encounter lots of new vocabulary. However, this problem quite disappeared when I asked them to choose books that does not have lots of new vocabulary. How about young learners who do not like reading and prefer to keep moving and playing around? How do we motivate them?

    This take is present By Stephen Krashen about reading, he used a term Free Voluntary Reading FVR and Sustained Silent Reading SSR, the mean reading not the sake of an assignment but the for the sake of pleasure, studies show that student who read fun entertainment performed better in test in terms of grammar, vocabulary and organizing ideas that those who taught grammar.I agree with you that offering the students the opportunity to read what appeals them and attracts their attention is very beneficial and rewarding but this lead the students to stick to one genre, how do you make the students read different genres and keeping them motivated. I think teachers should from time to time oblige students to read certain books, I asked my students to grad of their choice and start to read, the read but complained and gave excusses that the face difficulty in reading such as understanding vocabulary, lack of books in the school library but I offered prized for reading, I mean every student gets a prize when they read , my question is how do I motivate my students to read without offering prizes ?
    thanks Dr. Steven Krashen for the talk, well presented

    • @Beery1962
      @Beery1962 4 года назад +9

      Why do you need the students to learn different genres? Most books, whatever genre they're in, are going to get students to at least a high intermediate or even advanced level. Also, if the students are reading what they enjoy, why do they need a prize? By giving a prize, you're basically telling students that reading is not fun. The result of that is that, once the learning program is over, they will regard reading as a chore.

      Hi are there any tips to switch from simple books like graded readers to real books. I can read & understand book for English learners all levels but if i try standars book than most of the words are unknown for me. Tried startrek, harry potter, sawyer etc. Can you recommend something more advanced than books for learners but still quite simple to still have fun with reading ?

    Bravo, Stephen Krashen. Keep talking the talk, and walking the walk. You and the USDOE are so out-of-sync--but you are much more in sync with what will help children than the USDOE.
