NARRATIVE REPORT ON NATIONAL READING MONTH

CELEBRATION

“The journey of a lifetime starts with the turning of a page. – Rachel Anders”
This is the line that fits the superb celebration of Manambia Integrated School as it
celebrates National Reading Month on November 25, 2016.

English and Filipino coordinators in elementary and secondary levels brought

the MIS community to the magical world of reading as they celebrated National
Reading Month on November, an event declared by the Department of Education
(DepED) under its Memorandum No. 244 s 2011. They held a program to culminate
the celebration and to achieve its goals which are to deepen the appreciation for
books, exhibit the writing and visual art skills, expand students’ vocabulary,
encourage accurate word usage, develop skill in oral language and all expressive
mechanisms (voice, gestures, and facial expressions), promote teachers, students
and community relations and camaraderie, and gear up the students with values and
meaningful life lessons.

Many activities were done to strengthen students’ reading abilities to become

productive citizens of the country, and fruitful intellectual learners of Manambia
Integrated School. The activities were in English and Filipino categories. Those were
made into reality through the cooperation, passion and determination of all the
teachers led by their School Principal Mr. Eddie D. Arayan.
