Use pictures: They can help you guess and understand the text.
Re-read: If you don't understand something, read it again.
Summarize: After reading, tell yourself what the text was about.
Ask questions: While reading, ask who, what, where, when, why, and how.
Make connections: Relate the text to your own life or things you already know.
Learn to infer: Guess what the author means based on clues in the text.
