Look at the Shape!

មើលរូបរាងរបស់អត្ថបទ!

Skimming means looking at the text BEFORE you read the words.

ការអានរហ័ស (Skimming) មានន័យថាយើងសម្លឹងមើលរូបរាងនៃអត្ថបទជាមុនសិន មុននឹងចាប់ផ្តើមអានពាក្យនីមួយៗ។

How to Scan

របៀបស្កេន (អានរហ័ស)
Do not read every word!
កុំអានគ្រប់ពាក្យ! ទុកឲ្យភ្នែករបស់អ្នកលោតចុះឡើងរកមើលតែអ្វីដែលអ្នកចង់បាន។

Look for Capital Letters!

រកមើលអក្សរធំ!
Names always start with a BIG letter.
ឈ្មោះតែងតែផ្តើមដោយអក្សរធំជានិច្ច ដូច្នេះវាងាយស្រួលរកណាស់!
Name /neɪm/ ឈ្មោះ
Capital letter /ˈkæpɪtl ˈlɛtər/ អក្សរធំ (A, B, C...)

Practice 1: Names

អនុវត្តទី១៖ រកមើលឈ្មោះ
Scan this list. Where is the name "Sokha"?
1. Anna
2. Bopha
3. Chea
4. Dara
5. Sokha
6. Vannak
(យើងមិនបាច់អានឈ្មោះផ្សេងទេ ភ្នែកយើងរត់មករកអក្សរ S តែម្តង!)

Practice 2: Words

អនុវត្តទី២៖ រកមើលពាក្យដែលស្គាល់
Scan this menu. Where is "Kampot Coffee"?
Milk - $1
Kampot Coffee - $2
Water - $0.5
Tea - $1.5
Juice - $2
(ឧទាហរណ៍ទីតាំងយើងនៅ Kampot បើយើងចង់រកកាហ្វេកំពត យើងគ្រាន់តែស្កេនរកពាក្យ K មុនគេ!)
warning The Reading Trap!

Don't read every single word!

(ពេលយើងស្កេន កុំអានពាក្យនីមួយៗឲ្យសោះ! គ្រាន់តែរកមើលរូបរាងពាក្យដែលយើងចង់បានប៉ុណ្ណោះ។)

How to Move Your Eyes

មេរៀនជាវីដេអូ

Watch the Eyes! Notice how Teacher Sopheak moves her eyes. For a list, she looks DOWN. For a sentence, she looks ACROSS. For a sign, she just looks at the whole box at once!

Teacher, what is the difference between scanning and skimming? They sound the same!

Hi Setha! That is a great question. Scanning is looking for a SPECIFIC word (like your name or a phone number). Skimming is reading fast to get the MAIN IDEA of the story (to know what the story is about). We will learn Skimming next time! search

Hi Bopha! It prepares your brain! If you see a "List" shape, your brain knows "Ah, I don't need to read left-to-right, I just look down for facts." This makes reading much faster! bolt

Is a restaurant menu a list or a sign?

Sopheak Pich Teacher 4 hours ago

Great question! A menu is a List. It has items arranged vertically, usually with a price next to them. You don't read a menu from start to finish like a story; you skip around to find what you want! restaurant
