INTRODUCTION
What is following instructions? How important it is for students
to follow instructions as we enter the so called “New Normal”,
student needs to study at home with their learning kit. The students
need to understand each direction given to them from the module,
parents and teachers. Are they any consequences if students don’t
follow? As they say first school is from our home and first teacher is
our parent. Parents instruct their children to do things in their home
like “Put the plate in the table” and at the school, teacher will
command the students within the classroom like “Get your bag and
bring out your notebook.” Within their peer there are encounter to
follow instructions like “Put my doll on the table”.
It is important to the children to follow instruction, because
this can be measure if the students have the ability to comprehend.
Some children have struggles with this simple following direction.
These are the indicators that the children have difficulties in
following instruction. First, if the students fail to follow the simple
command and misinterpret information. They look at you blankly
when you give directions. Children have difficulties in following two
longer command and must be repeated the instruction.
According to Miller, S., Church, E., and Poole, C., author of the
article “Ages and Stages: Learning to Following Instruction”, as the
children turn 18 months old, thinking skills begin to develop.
Children understand more words and visualize things. When they
turn in 24 months the children can follow two- and three-instruction
like “Please get your doll and blanket and put them in your cubby”.
By the age of three, preschoolers have understood vocabulary of a
little over 1, 000 words but children at this age have developed their
comprehension. Listening is the skill must develop to follow
direction. Listening is receiving language through the ears. It
involves identifying the sounds of speech and processing them into

words and sentences. Students should have this skill but also with
comprehension. Listening comprehension isn’t just hearing what is
said—it is the ability to understand the words and relate to them in
some way.
Comprehension is the ability to understand about something.
Example is how the students able to understand difficult math
problem. When does the child begin to understand the word? When
the babies are in the womb of their mother, they learn to
understand what people say and doing. The babies don’t know the
meaning but they can recognize by the voice of their parents. Few
months later, they can develop to understand your gesture by love,
concern, anxiety or anger. When they reach the age of 7 months old,
they used hand gesture and other sign using their body that have
meaning. For example is by lifting their hand to signal that they want
to be picked up. As the babies reach the age of 9 months, they are
able to respond when their name are being called. When the babies
are about 12 to 15 months they can understand simple instructions
like “stop” and “come to your mommy.” And at the age of 3 years
old, they have seven hundred vocabularies and will understand
many more.
As a grade 2 teacher, some students of Grade 2 Graciano Lopez
Jaena have the difficulties in following simple instruction. Some

can’t understand the command or they just look at you with a
question mark on their face. Teacher tends to find the simple way to
make a simple direction for them to understand what they should
do to the activity given to them.
The purpose of this study is to ratify the reading understanding
of Grade 2 students of Graciano Lopez Jaena with the direction
given to them.
