Abstract:
Teaching grammatical writing for students at the elementary level needs high creativity, the students have to be encouraged to study hard to gain writing competence. Additionally, the students themselves face many problems: Lack of writing compositions, lack of exposure to books and reading resources, and grammatical problems. The objective of the study is to improve the grammatical writing skills of students in English 5 using the RAFT Strategy. This research aims to find out how the implementation of the Role, Audience, Format, Topic (R.A.F.T) strategy enhanced students' skills in grammatical writing. The respondents of the study were purposively selected which composed of thirty (30) students in Bagong Buhay G. Elementary School in the Schools Division of San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan. Moreover, having conducted the pretest and posttest, the researcher found out that students were able to write more effectively as they were aware of who they were writing, to whom they were writing, what format their writing was, and the topic of their writing. So, the students wrote more purposively and focused after being introduced to the RAFT writing strategy. Lastly, the study revealed that there is a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores of the students in the utilization of Role, Audience, Format, Topic (R.A.F.T) in improving grammatical writing skills of students in English 5.
