which parents can support and enhance their child's reading comprehension abilities. It is
one of the most important aspects of a child's upbringing. It is crucial for their development
both psychologically and academically. Learners with involved parents are more likely to
perform better academically, have lower levels of behavior problems, and have a higher
attitude, and values. It provides an opportunity for the pupils to learn, for example, feel a
sense of belonging, and experience greater levels of satisfaction and gratitude. On the
other hand, reading comprehension is the ability to understand, process, analyze, and

In this study, the researchers conducted an interview and survey with the parents
of Grade 4 learners in Paniqui West District Schools to better establish the gap of the
study. The respondents were questioned regarding the challenges their children had with
reading comprehension. The result of the initial interview indicated that there are some
Grade 4 learners in Paniqui West District Schools who are struggling in reading
comprehension. Most of the respondents’ children answered that they experienced the

With these reasons, the purpose of this research study will be to identify and

will be used as a foreground for the researchers to come up with suggestions that would
be helpful for the parents of the Grade 4 learners in the acquisition of the required
Grade 4 learners of Paniqui West District Schools. Furthermore, this study seeks to help
parents, teachers and educational institutions to discuss and collaborate more often that
would support and cater to the needs of the Grade 4 learners in Paniqui West District
Schools.

communication between the teacher and parent often is manifested in terms of the parents

being high, not comfortable reaching out to their children’s teachers with questions and

to the amount of engagement their children obtain, regularly ask their children if
they encounter any challenges while reading, and are also receptive to feedback
from their teachers regarding their children’s behavior and social interactions.
