NARRATIVE REPORT ON READING PROGRAM OF MACOPA INTEGRATED SCHOOL FOR

SCHOOL YEAR 2021-2022

Reading Skill is one of the macro skills that a specific learner should be developed at school. It
follows systematic ways and procedures on how it will be administered by teachers to their learners so
that there will be a smooth implementation of the programs which will lead to a positive result.

One of the Division of Misamis Oriental’s goal is to level up the frustration readers to being
independent readers in Misamis Oriental. Hence, they conducted a lot of programs and projects for all the
learners such as “POWER V-200,” National and Local webinars for reading teachers, Community
linkages where community like the LGUs, parents, private sectors, and Barangay officials collaborate to
schools to reach the same goal and that is to make each learner become independent readers.

The opening of classes for school year 2021-2022 last September 13, 2022 was also the start of the
numerous reading programs and projects of every school in Misamis Oriental. The Education Supervisors
of the Division of Misamis Oriental in the name of Dr. Gladys Banac (JHS and SHS) and Dr. Merly
Mabelin (Elementary) started the reading implementation with a 3-day reading webinars for all reading
coordinators from different schools last September 1-3, 2021. The topics of the 3-day webinar were about
the implementation of POWER V-200, reading strategies, and types of assessment. The resource speakers
during the webinar were also reading coordinators from schools who have successfully implemented the
reading programs.

According to Division memorandum no. 437 s. 2021 entitled “Conduct of Division Virtual
Diagnostic Oral Reading Test using the Revised Philippine Informal Reading Inventory,” every school
shall conduct the Oral Reading Test using the PHIL-IRI virtually. Each district shall select 30 students to
participate in the said activity. After the implementation of the said activity, each school was asked to
submit a consolidated PHIL-IRI Reading Pre-test result of learners. The Phil-Iri Pre-Test result of
Macopa Integrated school learners was presented below in a tabular form.

Table 1. School Consolidated Result of PHIL-IRI Pre-Test in English (ELEMENTARY) as of September 2021

Table 3. School Consolidated Result of PHIL-IRI Pre-Test in English (Junior High School) as of September 2021

Table 3. School Consolidated Result of PHIL-IRI Pre-Test in Filipino (Junior High School) as of September 2021

Based on the Phil-IRI Pre-test result of Macopa Integrated School learners, 127 out of 224 learners are frustration
readers in English while 117 out of 224 learners are frustration readers in Filipino. More than 50% of the number of
learners are frustration readers. Because of this alarming result, teachers of Macopa Integrated School are finding
ways to improve the reading skills of frustration readers. The Reading Coordinators of the said school made a
reading program for the guidance of teachers in implementing the reading activities.

Last November 2021, the Department of Education celebrated the National Reading Month. As a result, the
Division conducted again a webinar for the reading-related competitions which will be implemented by every
school. The following activities implemented by school are Poem Recitation for Kindergarten, Storytelling for
Grades 1,2, & 3, Team reading for grades 4,5, & 6, Oral interpretation for grades 7 and 8, and team reading and quiz
bowl for grades 9 and 10. The said program successfully ended because it does not only help learners improve their
reading skill but also, they were able to showcase their skills and the experiences they had may be used or applied in
real life.

There were also reading interventions that the teachers used to eliminate the frustration readers like the use of
Marungko Approach booklets 1-5, Power V-200, the use of audio and visual reading materials, Fuller method,
reading short stories with questions for reading comprehension, and big books.

As of this moment, Macopa Integrated School teachers are still implementing the reading interventions,
conduct remedial reading to meet the needs of frustration readers, improve the reading skill of instructional readers
and supplement the reading skill of independent readers.
