Abstract
This study “Read to Live” Program on the reading performance of Pasian National High School secondary school students aimed to 1.) describe the reading level in the “Read to Live” program based on the knowledge, vocabulary, language structure, verbal reasoning and literacy; 2) determine students’ reading performance in word recognition and reading comprehension; 3.) identify significant differences between the “Read to Live” program and students’ performance in word recognition and reading comprehension. The respondents were seventy-two (72) Junior High School students. Modified questionnaires about students’ characteristics were given to the respondents and Phil-IRI was used to determine their reading level. Data used an experimental study design to be collected using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and T- test. The results showed a positive response to the reading attitude and reading attitude of the respondents. Furthermore, the profile of the respondents, apart from the study behavior, influenced the performance of the respondents. Moreover, the “Read to Live” program affected the reading performance of the respondents in several areas. The researcher recommends that DepEd officials, administrators, parents and stakeholders should work together in dealing with the lack of literacy among students. An intensive reading training adapting unified reading materials was applied to thirty-two (32) females and forty(40) males in Pasian National High School. Similar studies could be conducted but focused on different reading interventions appropriate to students’ reading levels and interests as well as students’ reading comprehension and communication skills.
