Pobre Ana Chapter 1

Reading Tips
Dont get overwhelmed! Take your time.
Make sure you have your reference sheets (vocab, verbs, etc.) to look at.
Skim first find words you know immediately and try to see the big picture.
Read the first whole sentence and try to get the general meaning.
Read the sentence again and get the facts: who, what, where, etc.
Pick out the verbs decide what the infinitive is and then who is doing the action.
Move on (keep going even if you feel stuck).
Write down words you dont know but think you should.
Draw pictures or cartoons of what you think happened.
Read out loud or have someone read to you.
