My diary 4/7/2013 - week 5

Today I had to study about identifying the main idea from a passage with Aj.Usaa Noytim. At first, she asked us to explain the meaning of a main idea and how it is important. We had to share our ideas together in the class. After that, she gave us the sheet Living in a Multicultural Society. She taught us about the strategies of how to find the main idea in a passage step by step. At first, we have to form a hypothesis and test it by reading the next sentence and ask ourselves how does this sentence support our hypothesis? If yes, the information will support our original hypothesis, if it does not support our guess, then we have to revise the hypothesis. Next, she asked us to read and practice the passages on the sheets she gave us. We practiced so much together in the class by reading seven passages to find the main idea in the passages in steps.
I think, It was such a difficult lesson because it's difficult to find the main idea; we have to read so much and do it step by step. It was challenging my ability to understand. However, I could still understand some of them and now I know how to find the main idea step by step.
