READING STRATEGIES AND STRATEGIC READING IN CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING

Summary/Abstract: Reading is an extremely important language skill both in educational process and out of it. Unfortunately, in many foreign language classrooms, particularly in our country, the significance of this skill is not completely recognized and the most attention is still paid to grammar. Namely, reading is often seen as a mere capacity of decoding written language signs and the parallel processes of reading comprehension and interpretation are not sufficiently addressed. The paper deals with the several issues, such as significance of reading skills, the strategies needed for their development and the strategic role of the reading skill in the environment of content and language integrated learning (CLIL). Most of the contemporary research done in this field of the applied linguistics highlights the role of reading skills in facilitating an easier acquisition of the content matter, which is one of the focuses of the CLIL approach in general.
