Abstract

This study determined the level of reading performance of forty-one (41) Grade 1 Learners using the Marungko Approach in Parsolingan Elementary School for the school year 2019-2020. It employed a descriptive-correlation design. In gathering the data, a researcher-made questionnaire and reading performance evaluation were given to the respondents. Descriptive Statistics and Spearman, Point-Biserial Correlation were used to treat the data gathered. Results showed that the level of reading performance of Grade 1 learners using the Marungko Approach was very satisfactory with an overall weighted mean of 16.629 along phonemic awareness, reading in isolation, reading in context and reading comprehension. A slightly strong relationship existed between the reading performance of the Grade 1 learners and the profile variable on mother schedule in teaching reading. The researcher recommends that teachers provide a list of reading-related Youtube links to the parents of Grade 1 learners; plan and schedule a day to visit municipal or barangay library as part of an off-campus activity; consider seeking support from stakeholders for the provision of reading materials appropriate to the level of Grade 1 learners; develop reading program and activities responsive to the Grade 1 learners facing difficulty in reading and use Marungko Approach as an early reading instruction and intervention to Grade 1 learners.
