Reading

"Reading for comprehension is most likely to occur when the students are reading what they want to read, or at least what they see good reason to read" (Eskey 1986:6)

From this quotation I can say that comprehension takes place in reading when there is interest or desire in the reader. A reader who likes to read most likely understand what he reads. Unlike a person who forces himself to read because of exam or assignment, finds it difficult to comprehend. By all means he has to read or else fail the exam or unable to do the assignment.

To teach children reading comprehension, planning interesting activities is needed. A motivated reading material encourages children to read. This promote comprehension in reading.
