II. RATIONALE

Due to the pandemic, the teaching-learning process is hampered, particularly in remote areas where
access to television, radio, gadgets, and the internet is limited. Though online teaching and learning is the new
platform for communicating with students and engaging them in lessons, many children cannot afford to use it.
Because they are unfamiliar with the technology, some people are unable to relate to and participate in the
discussion.

Reading comprehension is one of the major school problems that must be addressed, especially because
children these days do not enjoy reading books and instead prefer to spend their time playing on their phones or
watching videos, which corrupts their minds and does not help them exercise their communication skills,
causing them to be unable to articulate what they are trying to say.

As a result, kids develop poor communication skills and low self-esteem since no one will guide,
support, or teach them, especially if their parents are illiterate and unable to read and write.
When we think of reading difficulties in school, we frequently think of students who struggle to decode letters
in a text and transform the text into spoken language. This sort of struggling reader has difficulty
comprehending many of the words and has weak phonological (speech sound) abilities. Some pupils, on the
other hand, appear to be reading beautifully but are unable to grasp what they are reading and communicate
their views in writing or orally.

If children can decode text well as they become older, we can infer they are readers. When a student
learns to decode, read with understanding, and fluently, they become better readers who do better in class
because they comprehend what they are reading. Teachers, on the other hand, note that some pupils interpret
material smoothly but do not grasp it, resulting in frustration and the need for guidance.

Because this sort of struggling reader is less visible than those who struggle with decoding, they
frequently go unnoticed until they begin to fail reading exams such as the Early Grade Reading Assessment
(EGRA), the Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (Phil-Iri), and Project KABASA. Even then, their problems
may go undetected for long periods, resulting in middle and high school children who appear to be reading but

don't understand a word they've read.

If their reading challenges are not addressed properly, they may fail in school and life. Non-readers and
poor readers often have low self-esteem and lack confidence in their talents because they are afraid that others
would doubt their integrity, ability, and capabilities if they speak up and work with them. To protect themselves
from bullying and shame, they sometimes isolate and create a barrier between themselves and others.

They are the ones that struggle with other topics because they are unable to read and comprehend the
information and are hesitant to request assistance for fear of being laughed at by their classmates. Frequently,
the non-reader "gives up" and loses interest in education.

Upper Sibul Elementary School provides additional instructional time to assist students with reading
difficulties in reading and comprehending the content. Providing them with tools to help them practice their
speech communication and comprehension abilities.

As a result, the Remedial Reading Program was created to provide additional support to Upper Sibul
pupils who are non-readers or have high reading frustration levels. Through adequate supervision and
participation from the school, community, and parents, this initiative will assist learners in progressing from a
beginner to an independent and dependent reader.
This initiative, as per the proponent, will be effective if the school, community, and parents work together to
develop a solid bond and establish a school-family collaboration that adds to their child's educational
achievement. Their participation in the educational process will have a significant impact on their children's life.
