NARRATIVE REPORT ON NATIONAL READING MONTH CELEBRATION

Pangpang Elementary School joined the national observation of the

annual National Reading Month last November 28, 2019 as spearheaded by the
department of Education (Deped) with the theme, Magbasa’t Umunlad, to
promote love for reading. This is in connection with DepEd’s commitment to
provide quality, accessible, relevant, and liberating basic education for all and
to lay the foundation of lifelong learning and service for the common good.

The school held program to culminate the celebration, to observe

the Nationwide Araw ng Pagbasa and to showcase the pupil’s capability in terms
of reading. Best practices are still conducting most especially in Primary Grades
such as Picture of the Day, Letter of the Day, A Word of the Day, Vocabulary, Story
Telling, and Story Reading. Essay/ paragraph reading and writing are the focus in
Intermediate Grades. These activities were helping the learners to learn how to
read and read to learn.

Finally, on November 28 at exactly 9:00 in the morning the school

conducted “Araw ng Pagbasa Challenge”. All learners and teachers
participated actively in the synchronized reading and were able to demonstrate
that reading can take many forms but it does not need to be tedious nor
intimidating. It can be enjoyed and shared with friends and loved ones.
