Abstract
The Problem
The main purpose of this project was to prepare valid, reliable, and suitable reading materials with exercises, for grades five and six pupils.
Specifically, this project aimed to establish validity, reliability, and usability of the reading selections and the test exercises through proper analysis of the results of silent reading tests, an oral reading test, and an inventory of children’s interests.
Significance of the Study
This study was undertaken with the main purpose of developing self-instructional materials for children, as well as developing vocabulary, word attack, and comprehension skills of pupils in grades five and six.
The materials will ease one of the problems of the administrators of the schools who hope to obtain more materials in order to make the reading program a success. Likewise, the production of these materials will benefit parents in that they will find available reading materials which are not only suited to their children’s interests but also within their capacity to pay for. To the teachers, these materials can be helpful in enriching and reinforcing exercises in their reading classes. With these materials as models on hand, teachers may be able to prepare their own set of materials that are suited to the group of pupils they are teaching. Finally, these materials can greatly help the pupils themselves experience success in their reading activity.
