Verse Blank verse Free verse

A reader should quickly scan the text for unfamiliar words.

When reading a print text, hightlighting these words or making other marginal notation is helpful when going back to read text critically. A reader should look at the words surrounding any unfamiliar ones to see what contextual clues unfamiliar words carry. Being able to define unfamiliar terms through contextual meaning is a critical skill in reading comprehension
