II. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE
meaning. Reading is an active process of constructing meanings of words. Reading has at all
times and in all ages been a great source of knowledge. Today the ability to read is highly
valued and very important for social and economic advancement. In today’s world with so
much more to know and to learn and also the need for a conscious effort to conquer the
divisive
Reading skills are essential to succeed in society. Those who are good readers tend to
exhibit progressive social skills. A person who is widely read is able to mix with others. He is
a better conversationalist then those who do not read. He can stand his ground. Reading
broadens the vision. It is in a way a substitute for travel. It is not possible to travel as much
one would like to and reading can fill in the gap created by the lack of travel. Having
confidence in reading only comes from the daily practice of reading. A good reader can
interact with others in a far better way because reading has widened his vision and point of
view. Thus, a widely-read man is a better conversationalist and is able to see the other side
point of view.
Reading also plays a vital role in students’ success in school. Hence, it should be one
of the necessary skills that must be mastered by an individual learner. It is a basic skill for all
learning areas. It provides an opportunity for every student to learn the different subjects
because when a learner has a difficulty in reading, he/she may encounter difficulties in all
subject areas.
Reading difficulties are a perennial problem in the Philippines. As a matter of fact, the
PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) results in 2018 revealed that reading
is among the areas that fifteen-year-old students in the Philippines scored lower than those in
majority of the countries and economies that participated in PISA 2018. The country’s
average reading score was 340 score points, on a par with that of the Dominican Republic.
No country scored lower than the Philippines and the Dominican Republic. In mathematics
and science, students in the Philippines scored 353 and 357 points, respectively, on a par with
mathematics and science. The Philippines shared a significant rate of low performers among
all PISA-participating countries and economies. That is, 80% of the Filipino students did not
reach the minimum level of proficiency in reading. Their poor scores in English,
Mathematics, and Science are attributed to the students’ lack of ability in basic reading and
comprehension.
Based on the initial reading assessment during enrollment, majority of the students
have poor reading skills. As stipulated in the DepEd Order No. 39, s. 2012, interventions
have to be made in order to address learning gaps. Moreover, in accordance with the national
program ECARP (Every Child a Reader Program), teachers should come up with strategies
is the prime mandate of teachers to monitor and evaluate learners’ reading and achievement.
Thus, a reading program that will cater to the different reading needs of learners is expected
