PREFACE

The world has stopped due to the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. All entities
have faced challenges to continue their processes and mechanisms just for the
purpose of surviving, seems like this pandemic hasn’t found its period but rather
death in its sentence. The world has found itself bending hardly in its knees and
education is one that really felt the drawbacks of it. Education landscape- its policies
and implementation guidelines were modified and some newly crafted to fit the
context of distance learning. Indeed, education has crawled it ways to
implementations.
In the Philippines, schools remained completely closed throughout most of
2020 and in September of 2021, the government allowed the pilot run of limited
Face-to-Face classes in low-risk areas. The prolonged school closure is attributed to
challenges in the distribution of learning materials, questions regarding the quality of
the modules, and strong reservations from practitioners in the education sector. In
view of the longer duration of closures, evidence shows that COVID-19 slows down
the goal of lowering learning poverty—which is defined as the percentage of 10-year-
old children who cannot read and understand a simple story. Learning poverty in the
country was estimated at 69.5 percent in 2019 based on TIMSS (Trends in
International Mathematics and Science Study). Also, the 2019 Southeast Asia
Primary Learning Metrics Report revealed results that are alarming where the
majority of Grade 5 students are not able to read at their level. Additionally, for
Reading, the report shows that 27 percent of Filipino pupils in Grade 5 are only able
to recognize single words, while only 10 percent of them developed reading
proficiency to allow their proper transition to secondary education (Inquirer, Dec. 3,
2020).
In Region 3, low proficiency level in English, Math, and Science remains a
dilemma as revealed by the results of standardized tests which also manifested from
the results here in Tarlac City Schools Division thru reading assessments and
academic profiling of learners.
Based on the results of the Posttest of Academic Profiling of learners
participating in face-to-face classes, 1,402 or 11% of Key Stage 1 learners could not
identify the correct way of reading; 1,737 or 14% could not perform letter name
knowledge; 2,784 or 22% could not identify letter sounds; and 2,934 or 23% failed to
identify first letter sound. In terms of Word decoding, 5,288 or 42% could not read
familiar words; 5,764 or 46% had difficulty decoding invented words; and 6,232 or
50% could not perform oral passage reading. In terms of comprehension, 6,705 or
53% failed the reading comprehension while 6,408 or 51% failed the listening part.
Lastly, 6,969 or 56% could not perform dictation.
For Key Stage 2, only 2,664 or 22% of learners are in independent level and
4,416 or 37% are in instructional level. For the frustration, a total of 4,594 or 38%
was found out to be in this level and 352 or 3% of them are still, unfortunately, non-
readers. For Grades 7 and 8, only 311 or 8% of learners are in independent level
and 1,198 or 38% are in instructional level. For the frustration, a total of 1,647 or
52% was found out to be in this level and 28 or 1% of them are still, unfortunately,
non-readers.

iii
These results clearly show that learners are having difficulty in word decoding
and comprehension which are the main components of reading. Hence, the Division
has come up with its intervention to address the learning losses in literacy which is
the Project RESCUE (Recovery and Engagement of Struggling readers through
Curriculum Updates and Explicit instruction).
According to Fisher and Frey (2014), learners need a host of experiences with
rich informational texts and a sliding scale of scaffolds and supports to access the
information within them; moreover, Perin (2015) claimed that teachers need to
explain, model, provide guided practice, and engage students in independent
practice rather than merely assigning reading. Likewise, National Reading Panel
(2000) underscored that text comprehension can be improved by instruction that
helps readers use specific comprehension strategies. Thus, successful
comprehension involves teacher-directed instructions in comprehension strategies
which is basically the core of explicit instruction.
Truly, these reading materials are directly intended for non-decoders and non-
comprehenders to become proficient readers. The materials for non-comprehenders
are aligned with explicit instruction with the integration of the six types of
comprehension namely literal, reorganization, inference, prediction, evaluation, and
personal response with the incorporation of different forms of questions while for
non-decoders the 10 elements of Early Grades Reading Assessment (EGRA) were
incorporated and discussed comprehensively.
Thus, these reading materials ought to aid teachers and even parents in
improving the reading proficiency level of learners and in establishing a culture of
reading in every school.

PREDICTING OUTCOMES
Background Information:
Predicting outcomes is a reading comprehension skill shows
one’s ability to predict what will happen next to a given situation or
scenario.
Making prediction is when we use clues in the story to foresee
what will happen next.
There are two ways to predict an outcome:
1. What the reader already knows or experienced.
2. Clues that are given a picture or story.

Examples: Look at the picture below.

Question: What is most likely to happen?


What is happening in the picture? Where do you think they will be
going?
You will be able to predict what will be the outcome or what will
happen next based on the details given in illustrations, images or
pictures.

1
Read the paragraph below.
Marta is your cousin from mother’s side, you saw her last summer
vacation with her family with traveling bags in a bus terminal going to
Baguio. Question? Can you predict where is Marta’s family going next
vacation?
Predicting outcomes can be as short as one sentence or long like a
long passage.
There are important things to consider in predicting outcomes:
a. look for clues,
b. use past experiences, and
c. combine available pieces of information that are helpful to
predict an outcome.
Objectives:
• Give outcomes of a text
• Predict possible ending to a story
• Improve predicting outcomes comprehension skills

Pablo’s Vacation
Pablo was spending his vacation with his

The Race

Four boys worked together on a school project. The project was


well-done and won a prize a comic book.
“I’ll be the first one to take the comic book home”, said Nardo.
“Why don’t we have a race?” put in Luis. “The first one to reach
that gate over there will be the first one to take the comic book
home, the second in the race will be the next, and so on.”
“That’s a fine idea,” agreed all the others.
“I’m glad I’m wearing my new leather shoes,” said Nardo.
“My rubber shoes are very comfortable,” said Ramon. “I think I’ll
win the race”.
“I’m going to take off my rubber slippers,” said Nilo. “I think I
can run faster without them.”
“Oh, no!” said Luis. “Don’t you see the stones and broken
glasses that were unearthed by the heavy rain last night? I’d rather
run with my wooden shoes than go barefooted.”

16
But Nilo had his own way. Luis started counting and at the
count of ten, all four boys began running. They had not gone far
when Nilo suddenly stopped and held his left foot.”

Bathing in the Rain

“Come on, Luis! Come on, Nardo! Bathing on the rain is fun,”
invited Milyo who was already bathing in the rain.
“Our mother is not here,” agreed Luis. “Besides she doesn’t
allow us to bath in the rain. She says we are sickly.”

21
“That’s your chance, then. Your mother is away so you can
join me and have fun. You’ll stop before your mother arrives. Then,
she’ll never know. Nobody will tell her,” answered Milyo.
“Fine! Fine!” said Nardo, the younger of the two boys.
“Please, kuya, let’s bath in the rain.”
“Well, well” agreed Luis. “We’ll you join just for a short while.”
The three boys played in the rain. They ran there and there.
They threw water at each other. They played with paper boats and
then with a big ball. They forgot all about the time.
Soon Nardo was shivering from cold. He was sneezing now
and then when they went home, they saw their mother waiting for
them at the door.
