Participants were 46 students in two groups: experimental and control class. Before the treatment, in order to assess their knowledge of reading comprehension, a pre-test was given in both groups. During the treatment, experimental group received pre-reading strategies before reading the text, but control group did not. In analysing the data, independent t-test was used.
