THE IMPACT OF “MY TEACHER, MY MENTOR IN READING” ON THE READING PROFICIENCY OF


GNHS STUDENTS

Chapter 1-Introduction

 Short Narrative Report:

This study was conducted to investigate the impacts of the reading intervention on the reading proficiency of the
junior and senior high students of Gamut National High School, Barobo Surigao del Sur S.Y. 2020-2021. This
research utilized quantitative method and follows purposive sampling procedure using t-test to analyze the data.
Results showed that there is a significant effect of the intervention to the respondents both in word recognition and
reading comprehension of pre-test and post-test of Oral Reading Progress Test.

 Rationale

Reading is an interactive habit that a person can have. It is a basic life skill. Its main goal is to be able to
understand, interpret and evaluate certain reading materials and thus, they may be able to interact and respond
certain favorable reactions. It also convinces people to certain life experiences and abilities of an author which
makes them realize and explore a profitable interest.

At present, the utilization of reading materials and advancement of technology depends on learning ability of a
learners in terms of accessibility and availability. it’s a gap between learners who are exposed to a reading
materials at home and lack of access to different materials and learning opportunities because of economic status.
There are parents in Barangay Cabacungan tend to focus on their livelihood income rather than the educational
stability of their children which may result on the low performance in school particularly on reading both in word
recognition and reading comprehension. Aside from that, lack of interpretation and insufficient reading materials
may also result to lack of interest on reading that can hinder their learning ability to learn.

As to the content of the students’ reading performance of Gamut National High School

Cabacungan National High School, 46 Grade 7 Students are actually tested during the Pretest of the Oral Reading
Proficiency Test (ORPT) on the opening month of the First Semester, school year 2016-2017 in which 54.35% of
the students belongs to instructional level and 45.65% frustration level on word recognition and 100% of the
students on reading comprehension belongs to frustration level which means a very frustrated results acquired by
the readers.

Basedon a three-year (School Years 2013-2016) average baseline data, the Grade 7 ORPT results (Source: School
Reading Coordinator) of Cabacungan National High School show an increasing trend in Frustration Level
(65.63%, 27.27%, 71.05%).

To address this gap, each mentor of Cabacungan NHS is assigned to a certain Grade 7 Student being their partner
in Reading. The mentor sets time for readers during their vacant time and noon time in order to realize the
intervention.

1.1 . Review of Related Literature

Schools everywhere have focus on literacy. The following literature review contains an analysis of several studies on
the effects of reading intervention strategies on the reading proficiency.

Reading comprehension is the process of constructing meaning from text. The goal of all reading instruction is
ultimately targeted at helping a reader comprehend text. It is the level of understanding of a text/message. This
understanding comes from the interaction between the words that are written and how they trigger knowledge outside
the text/message [ CITATION Ray01 \l 1033 ]. Comprehension is a "creative, multifaceted process" dependent upon
four language skills: phonology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics [ CITATION Tom11 \l 1033 ]. Proficient reading
depends on the ability to recognize words quickly and effortlessly [ CITATION Ada941 \l 1033 ]. It is also determined
by an individual's cognitive development, which is "the

construction of thought processes". Some people learn through education or instruction and others through direct
experiences [ CITATION Tom11 \l 1033 ].

Reading comprehension involves two levels of processing, shallow (low-level) processing and deep (high-level)
processing. Deep processing involves semantic processing, which happens when we encode the meaning of a word
and relate it to similar words. Shallow processing involves structural and phonemic recognition, the processing of
sentence and word structure and their associated sounds [ CITATION Cai09 \l 1033 ].

All models of comprehension recognize the need for readers to build up a mental representation of text, a process that
requires integration across a range of sources of information, from lexical features through to knowledge concerning
events in the world [ CITATION Gar01 \l 1033 ]. In the early stages of reading, the vast majority of children with
reading problems struggle decoding the words on the page [CITATION Wag10 \l 1033 ]. They might have other
problems as well, but their inability to merely read the words on the page trumps any other problems that might
become evident if they could get beyond this necessary first step. However, as children’s decoding skills develop, up
to half of the remaining cases of impaired reading may be attributable to sources other than poor decoding [ CITATION
Cai09 \l 1033 ].

According to the reading worksheet, an individual's ability to comprehend text is influenced by their traits and skills,
one of which is the ability to make inferences. If word recognition is difficult, students use too much of their
processing capacity to read individual words, which interferes with their ability to comprehend what is read. There are
a number of approaches to improve reading comprehension, including improving one's vocabulary and reading
strategies. Keith Lenz also suggest that the process of comprehending involves decoding the writer's words and then
using background knowledge to construct an approximate understanding of the writer's message. It also affected by
the quality of the reading material. Some writers are better writers than

others, and some writers produce more complex reading material than others. Text that is well organized and clear is
called "considerate text," and text that is poorly organized and difficult to understand can be called "inconsiderate
text." The more inconsiderate the text, the more work will be required of a reader to comprehend the text. Readers
who do not have the background, abilities, or motivation to overcome the barriers presented in inconsiderate text will
have more difficulty comprehending these types of texts. It is the level of understanding of a text/message. This
understanding comes from the interaction between the words that are written and how they trigger knowledge outside
the text/message [ CITATION Ray01 \l 1033 ].

Comprehensive reviews of the strengths and weaknesses of individuals with poor comprehension and adequate
decoding have been provided [ CITATION Nat09 \l 1033 ]. Deficits have been reported in making inferences,

monitoring comprehension, working memory, listening comprehension, and in other aspects of oral language.
[ CITATION Cai09 \l 1033 ] reviewed three kinds of studies that support causal influenced—comprehension-age match
comparisons, training studies, and longitudinal correlational studies—and concluded that there is evidence for causal
influences on reading comprehension for inference making, comprehension monitoring, and understanding story
structure.

Evidence of potential direct influences of vocabulary on reading comprehension comes from training studies in which
intervention programs were provided to improve vocabulary and reading comprehension was included as an outcome.
It is important to note that training studies could miss direct influence of vocabulary on reading comprehension if (a)
vocabulary did exert a direct influence but was not impacted by training, (b) vocabulary was impacted by training but
transfer to reading comprehension did not happen automatically, or (c) both. Three reviews of the literature provide at
least modest support for a direct influence of vocabulary on reading comprehension. It has been carried out a review
of all published experimental and quasi-experimental studies of the effects of vocabulary instruction. Although gains
on standardized measures of reading comprehension as a consequence of reading instruction were found for only two
studies, the panel generally supported vocabulary instruction and called for more sensitive measures of vocabulary
knowledge [ CITATION Nat00 \l 1033 ].

Further evidence of a relation between vocabulary knowledge and phonological processing comes from comparing
performance on phonological processing tasks involving word stimuli with performance involving non-word stimuli.
For example, the Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing [ CITATION Wag10 \l 1033 ] has both word and non-
word versions of phonological blending and phonological segmentation. It is possible to compare performance on
comparable word and non-word items. Doing so makes clear that it is more difficult to do phonological processing on
non-word items than on word items. Given evidence of relations between (a) vocabulary and phonological processing
tasks, (b) phonological processing and decoding, and (c) decoding and reading comprehension, a plausible indirect
influence of vocabulary on reading comprehension is via the mediating route of phonological processing and
decoding. In addition, comparing performance on the Word Reading Efficiency and Phonemic Decoding Efficiency
subtests of the Test of Word Reading Efficiency [ CITATION Tor99 \l 1033 ] reveals a similar advantage for word-
based stimuli over non-word based stimuli for decoding.

1.2 . Research Questions

Result showed that there is an increase number of percentage from Independent level and less number of respondents
belong to Frustration and Instructional level which means a great increase of the performance of the respondents
because some of them reach an independent level and less from the frustration level. In terms of the reading
comprehension skills, there is an increase number of respondents from Independent and Instructional level and only
82.61% decrease of frustration.

Scaling Percentage had been applied throughout the sample both in word recognition and reading comprehension in
which most number of respondents fall at the middle of instructional level in word recognition.

The findings in this study contributes a significant awareness of the teachers and students in implementing the reading
intervention throughout the school year. Further, the researcher concludes the following outcome.

- Performance of the respondents in the Oral Reading Progress Test during the Pre-Test and Post-
Test shows an improvement of their reading proficiency both in word recognition and reading
comprehension.

- The distribution of the respondents based on their level of performance in the word recognition
and reading comprehension showed an increase number of 39.13% Independent level, 47.83%
Instructional level and 13.04% of the respondents belong to Frustration level. In terms of the
reading comprehension skills, there is an increase number of respondents from Independent and
Instructional level and only 82.61% decrease of frustration.

- The study shows that there is a significant difference between the reading performance of Grade 7
before and after the conduct of the intervention. It further shows the direct relationship between
the word recognition and reading comprehension skills of the respondents, this means that the
decrease number of value of word recognition signifies a great improvement from the average
mean of 75.70 to 78.48, In line with the reading comprehension that increasingly improves the
reading ability of the responts from the average mean of 0.59 to 8.39.

- When it comes to the validity of the results, the correlation coefficients applied thorughout the
samples which results to less correlation of 0.3890 for word recognition and 0.1417 for reading
comprehension shows a positive response of the intervention given by the teachers. It is
noteworthy, that the use of t-test sampling analysis successfully provides information on the
significant relationship between the word recognition and reading comprehension from Pre-Test
to Post-Test.

4.2. Recommendation

Each individual is different and has diverse strengths and weaknesses and is really important to value the diversity of
students and find what’s best for them. The school initiated and implemented the said reading intervention for the
benefits of the learners. Based on the findings and results of the study, it is further recommended by the following:

- Strengthening the implementation of “My teacher, My Partner” as a basis of reading intervention


of the school.

- Evaluate the reading proficiency of higher grade level in order to assess their reading ability and
comprehension.

- Practice differentiated instructions of diverse learners in each grade level especially Grade 7
Students.
