Abstract:
Reading is one of the most essential skills a person must have.Therefore, this study attempts to improve the reading comprehension of Grade 7 learners through Reflective Activities. Eighteen (18) Grade 7 learners under frustration level participated in the study. Reflective Activities was employed, and a reading comprehension test was used to collect the required data. This study is action research designed to determine if there is an improvement in students' reading comprehension after implementing the Reflective Activity. The implementation of Reflective Activity in this study frames Richard Sagor's Four-Stage Model of action research. The researchers have developed a strategy to address students' reading comprehension through reading and reflecting, . This strategy combines reading approaches to cater to the essential factors necessary for compelling reading. Mean and Standard Deviation were used to determine the students' comprehension level during pre-test and post-test and determine how dispersed the scores were. Paired Sample T-test was also employed to determine the significant difference between the pre-test and post- test scores. The findings revealed significant differences between students' pre-test and post-test reading comprehension levels using the Reflective Activity. The study concludes that adopting the Reflective Activity improves the Grade 7 learners reading comprehension.
