PRONUONS???

Assalamulaikum. Today's class we learnt about pronouns.
What is a pronoun??? Hemm..... It is a word that takes place of nouns in sentences. If nouns are used repetitively in a sentence, the sentence will sound dull or boring. Pronouns are used in place of nouns in sentences. They are many different groups of pronouns. They are:


PERSONAL PRONOUNS

Eg: I, you, he, she, they, them, it, we

Reflexive pronouns are used to reflect antecedents. Example

READING...

SCANNING

• This is a selective reading skill to locate facts and answers to specific questions. 
• Save the time. No need to read every word on the page.
• example : timetable, chart, tables.

SKIMMING

• Reading skill employed to obtain the general idea of a text, to find out the writer's point of view and to see how the contents in a passage are arranged.
• When a text or a passage is too long and we have limited amount of time, we use this technique.
• The speed in which we read is 3 or 4 times faster than the speed of normal reading.
• When skimming, look for key word and phrases, the headingsor subheadings for the general idea of the passage.
