Engage With the Passage

Active reading means participating as you read! Underline or highlight key points, jot down quick notes, or summarize paragraphs in your own words. This keeps you focused and helps you remember what you read.

How to Do It

• Circle important words or phrases.
• Write brief notes in the margin.
• Pause after each paragraph to think about what you learned.

Active reading helps you absorb information and answer questions more confidently.
