Abstract :
Research has revealed that fluent readers with regular reading habits tried to imprint certain strategies and skills to understand the texts. Extensive reading provides the learners to have an enormous exposure of printed materials especially outside the classroom activity to have ample scope to read and pick up the rational thinking how the language fits to their level of understanding the texts. Nation (2001) claimed that when learners read, they not only learn new words and enrich their known ones, but they can also improve their syntactic knowledge.[01].The students meet the same words repeatedly in different topics like Short stories, Magazines, comics etc., and autonomous retention of vocabulary takes place instinctively and reading fluency. This paper sheds light on various shades of reading through practical methods to have an experience in reading texts and to utilize their latent cognitive and Metacognitive skills to explore the world of innovative methods of developing the language to become life–long readers. The sample study was conducted on 200 students in three different Engineering colleges at B.Tech level in various disciplines to test their reading habits and language proficiency. The workshop was conducted for a week and the students were asked to read a variety of books at their level of understanding. They were examined in particular areas such as Grammar, sentence formation, vocabulary etc., to employ their inherent and constructive ideas to understand the texts at their own comfortable zone of learning. The students were given some tips to learn Prefixes and suffixes to understand the topics rather than to refer Dictionary at every level. The findings revealed that effusive reading of different printed materials with minimum use of Dictionaries rather than detailed analytical aspect of learning words, vocabulary, grammar will have an effective way of learning in anxiety free Environment. This will build up their inherent and constructive ideas in all the relevant fields such as Grammar, idiomatic phrases, sentence formation etc., to achieve experience with reading texts to become life–long readers.
