In your Field Study 1, you have learned that action research is a dynamic process that is categorized under
applied research. It is focused on solving practitioners’ local problems wherein an action plan plays a significant role in the
execution of such work (Johnson & Christensen, 2020). Yes, you heard and read it right - for a teacher’s life, conducting
action research is an advocacy since the primary purpose of it is to improve school practices and solve classroom-based
teaching and learning related issues to find applicable ways and means to address existing or present issue that usually
bother practitioners’ execution of their job. So, let us now put into practice the theories that you have learned by preparing
an action plan that will serve as your guide and frame of reference in doing Classroom-Based Action Research (CBAR).

Recall the different parts of the action research, then put into practice the ideas/ knowledge you have learned. You can
enrich your knowledge on how you go about preparing your action research plan by watching “YouTube”, surfing credible
online website, browsing and reading vital sources, eBooks, books, journals and research publications. Please observe
the following: (1) etiquette in doing activities; (2) proper acknowledgement of references and sources; and (3) intellectual
property rights.

Directions: Below are the parts of an action research. Prepare your research plan by describing what you
will do to come up with an excellent classroom-based action research.

(1) Do you consider your proposed action research plan beneficial in coming up with an excellent CBAR? Justify.

Indeed, the investigator thought that our suggested research action plan would
be helpful in creating an outstanding CBAR as it was founded on close observation,
cooperation, thorough research, and critical evaluation of any possible issues. It can
also serve as a path or manual for them while they create their CBAR.

Plan Execution

Directions: Below is the list of the parts of an action research. After preparing your action research plan, the next step is to
carry out your plan. Prepare the different parts of your CBAR based on what you have planned. Focus only on the
indicated parts. Other parts not included will be done/ accomplished during the Internship period. The preliminaries

PART I. INTRODUCTION
Background of the study
The field of education is currently impacted by the rapid advancement of technology, particularly in
terms of young students' reading abilities. The dissemination of knowledge has undergone a swift
transformation in the last two decades due to the advancements in computer technology. Because
material can now be accessible instantly thanks to the internet, libraries are compelled to keep up with
technological advancements.
As a result, despite the rapid advancement of technology, educators will continue to find methods to

Learners' engagement is guaranteed by animated video stories that offer a realistic target language
environment. The learners participate in the target language world because they are exposed to a
genuine use of the language. Linguistic acquisition is aided by learners' unintentional participation in
linguistic conversation. (Sajana, 2018)
The purpose of this study is to provide and collect accurate information and details about the
enhancement of reading comprehension and the effectiveness of the Video Animated Short Stories
among Grade 2 pupils at Turac Eementaryl School.

PART III. GENERATION AND ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION

1. Poor Reading Comprehension of Grade 2 pupils

The growth of readers benefits greatly from visual or animated video presentations in
numerous ways. It permits the student reader’s comprehension to grow gradually, slowing
down the process of analysis by making it more deliberate, and empowering students to
construct their interpretation and rely on their critical thinking abilities. By using visual
literacy, teachers can provide additional opportunities for shy or reticent students to feel at

Using one adjective, describe your experience as a group in accomplishing the activity in
general and in writing the four parts, from introduction to the plan of action, of your
classroom-based action research in particular. Why did you choose that adjective?

In conducting the entire action research, I could describe myself as Strong because I felt
so engaged with what we are performing. I was filled and marked with much stronger as
we heeded every step in accomplishing the task. I know that doing a classroom-based
action paper is highly important because it wouldn’t just help us learn about our social
context, but also enhances our skills in handling a classroom. Effectively in the future.
Whatever challenges we may face as teachers, we would face each day having bright
hope that student learning would be attained and every learner could access equal
educational opportunities. I know that being strong is what we should possess in whatever
important we are doing. Teaching must be filled with it because the teacher strong sparks
the curiosity of students and jumpstarts their motivation to learn.
