PROJECT REAP
READING ENHANCEMENT ADAPTIVE PROGRAM IN TIME OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC

I. Project Summary
In response to DepEd Memorandum No.048, s.2021, 2021, being Brigada
Pagbasa as part of Brigada Eskwela, our main goal in DepEd and as an educator is
to help all learners to read and become functionally literate. This project proposal
also aims to involve stakeholders to contribute to providing reading support to the
struggling learners of our community, particularly Grade 8 students.
Reading is part of an individual’s everyday life. It is the most important skill
to be mastered by a student because it is a requirement in the process of teaching
and learning. Inability to read and comprehend the lesson will contribute to the low
academic performance of a student.
It is inevitable that there are high school students who are still struggling to
read. One of the factors that we see as teachers are that they are not exposed to
reading materials because of the lack of resources and of course the lack of
instructional assistance from the family.
The main idea of this project is to bring the essence of school to the grade 8
struggling readers in the community through the help of well-oriented community
volunteers and will be facilitated by English reading teachers. The volunteers will
serve as the Learning Support Aides of teachers, they will be the reading teachers
of the community.
Identified struggling readers will be grouped according to the proximity of
their respective barangays. The learning area will be stationed in a certain Pag-asa
Gymnasium to cater at least five (5) learners per one hour session. The team will
then proceed to the next station. A barangay official, assigned community
volunteers, and some grade 8 teachers will be present in the site to assist.
All necessary safeguards will be observed according to the rules
implemented by IATF to secure the safety of the persons and clients involved.

II. Project Background


Project REAP is from the initiative of Marinela D. Serna, grade 8 English
Reading Coordinator of Muñoz National High School-Main Junior High School,
together with grade 8 English Teachers. The proponent has been the adviser of a
section with reading difficulties for 3 years. Since then, she never stopped in
seeking innovative and attainable approaches to develop the reading competencies
of these learners.
The proponent discovered that struggling readers find it easier to learn
unfamiliar words if they have reading coaches who can assist them properly. She
also found out that most of the parents are struggling readers themselves, thus
they are incapable of teaching their children to read.

With this pandemic, learners are forced to study at the comfort of their
home, and also in a self-learning mode, which the struggling readers will not be
able to do because they need assistance in reading and understanding the words.
Parents who are busy attending their jobs and family members who are also doing
their modules will have a full hand to still teach their other siblings.
Grade 8 teachers, the barangay and community volunteers will be working
together to achieve the goal of Brigada Pagbasa even in this time of pandemic.
Following the strict guidelines set by IATF, the school will be brought to learners’
community.

III. Project Objectives


The main goal of this intervention is to improve the reading status of grade 8
learners who are considered as non-readers and frustration-level readers.
Specifically, the objectives are as follows:
1. identify non-readers and frustration level readers,
2. increase the learning opportunities of struggling readers,
3. promote shared learning goals and collaboration across the school and the
community,
4. build connection and network of support from the community and stakeholders.

b. Project Deliverables

Pre-Reading Assessment
Grade 8 learners whose general average from their previous grade
level of 83 to 75 will be given a pre-reading assessment provided by English
Supervisor.

Community Volunteers and Stakeholders


Volunteers from the community will serve as the Learning Support
Aides (LSA) of teachers. They will be oriented on how to teach reading and
how to handle students with reading disabilities. Stakeholders will be asked
for financial support.

Intervention
The intervention material is composed of twenty one (21) lessons.
Lessons included are word families, the association of word families to
phrases, sentences, rhymes, and short reading comprehensions. Two (2)
lessons will be administered every week.

Take home hand-out


Each learner will be given a hand-out of the lesson to bring home for
drill and practive. Each will be asked to read a word or phrase on the next
session to identify if they have mastered the lesson.

Monitoring Sheet
An individual monitoring sheet will be accomplished by the LSA every
week to identify what the learners need to develop further. They will take
note of the improvements of the learner.

Post-Reading Assessment
The Post-Reading Assessment will be given at the end of the lessons.
This will also serve as an indicator if the learner needs enrichment lessons.

c. Project Risk Management

1. Everyone must take all the necessary precautions. Facilitators present in


the site must wear PPE, face shield, facemask and surgical gloves.
Learners must wear facemask and face shield too.
2. Since the learning area will be in the Pag-asa Gym, barangay officials
should be notified about the schedule of the reading program to disinfect
the area, ensure cleanliness and to avoid crowd.
3. Convince and encourage parents/guardians the positive effect of the
program on their children. They should be well-informed and well-
oriented.
