I love to read books about many different subjects.  Biographies; science fiction; history; science.  I love them all.  Do you love to read?
Reading is a process you really need to practice it to get good at it.
I agree.  It takes a lot of work to read.  What else can you tell me about the science of reading?
Well the best part about reading is there are no concrete laws, its an adventure that allows each person to escape control and reality.
That's really interesting.  I do love the adventure that reading brings.  We can each enter into a whole new world through the medium of reading.  
Its a great point when you break it down reading is just decoding symbols in order to derive meaning, That is truly what reading comprehension is.
Reading for comprehension is really an art.  Most people can read; but comprehension is another level altogether.
Truly reading can be used in so many places, in fact students build comprehension through questioning, clarifying, summarizing and predicting.
That information will really help me.  I have been trying to work with my son on his reading comprehension.  Question; clarify, summarize, and predict.  I think I can remember that.  
The best way to learn to read is practice and building skills necessary to understand, then reading and comprehension becomes effortless.
