A Little Help Please...

When it comes to reading out of a book for assignments, I get pretty lost. I am not very good at interpreting the meaning behind a story or picking out the theme of a person's writing. The section of reading for today says that we should skim through our reading to get an idea of what the general reading is about, and then go back and read it thoroughly. There are many things that can be beneficial about this process. Skimming through gives you the chance to find things that you may not understand and take notes. You can write down questions or make notes of a certain part that you may want to look at more in depth. I think that is a good way to handle readings such as these. You get a better understanding of what you are reading, and you feel better about it. I got some pretty good ideas about how to conquer the readings for this class.
