Reading Strategy - Main Idea
When we read, it is important to keep in mind the message that they author is trying to convey. That is, what is the author trying to tell us. Often we recognize the topic of a passage (what the passage is about) and that can be recognized quickly and usually summarized in a word or two. Main idea is slightly more difficult to recognize. Basically, main idea is the author’s point and it can be stated using a sentence.
