Abstract


Proponents of language studies have shown that “Reading†has been a receptive skill in the written mode affecting the developments of the other skills such as oral receptive skill listening along with oral productive speaking skill as well as written productive writing skill. In parallel to the mentioned classification of language skills,Grabe and Stoller (2002:9 cited in Razı, 2005) define reading as the ability to extract meaning from the printed page and interpret this knowledge correctly. Reading process is considered in five phases. In addition to that activities related to these five stages, more precisely Pre-pre-reading; pre-reading; while reading; post reading and home- reading activities are suggested to remedy the deficiencies found and displayed in the finding of the study.
