LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL

I. PROGRAM TITLE: 4P’s (Pag-unawa’y Palalimin Pagbabasa’y Paunlarin)

II. TARGET DATE AND VENUE:

September 04, 2022 – June 2023/ SANTA FE NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

II. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE

Reading is defined as a cognitive process that involves decoding symbols to arrive at

meaning. Reading is an active process of constructing meanings of words. Reading has at all

times and in all ages been a great source of knowledge. Today the ability to read is highly

valued and very important for social and economic advancement. In today’s world with so

much more to know and to learn and also the need for a conscious effort to conquer the

divisive

forces, the importance of reading has increased.

Reading skills are essential to succeed in society. Those who are good readers tend to

exhibit progressive social skills. A person who is widely read is able to mix with others. He is

a better conversationalist then those who do not read. He can stand his ground. Reading

broadens the vision. It is in a way a substitute for travel. It is not possible to travel as much

one would like to and reading can fill in the gap created by the lack of travel. Having

confidence in reading only comes from the daily practice of reading. A good reader can

interact with others in a far better way because reading has widened his vision and point of

view. Thus, a widely-read man is a better conversationalist and is able to see the other side

point of view.

Reading also plays a vital role in students’ success in school. Hence, it should be one

of the necessary skills that must be mastered by an individual learner. It is a basic skill for all

learning areas. It provides an opportunity for every student to learn the different subjects

because when a learner has a difficulty in reading, he/she may encounter difficulties in all

subject areas.

Reading difficulties are a perennial problem in the Philippines. As a matter of fact, the

PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) results in 2018 revealed that reading

is among the areas that fifteen-year-old students in the Philippines scored lower than those in

majority of the countries and economies that participated in PISA 2018. The country’s

average reading score was 340 score points, on a par with that of the Dominican Republic.

No country scored lower than the Philippines and the Dominican Republic. In mathematics

and science, students in the Philippines scored 353 and 357 points, respectively, on a par with

performance in Panama. The Philippines outperformed the Dominican Republic in

mathematics and science. The Philippines shared a significant rate of low performers among

all PISA-participating countries and economies. That is, 80% of the Filipino students did not

reach the minimum level of proficiency in reading. Their poor scores in English,

Mathematics, and Science are attributed to the students’ lack of ability in basic reading and

comprehension.

Based on the initial reading assessment during enrollment, majority of the students

have poor reading skills. As stipulated in the DepEd Order No. 39, s. 2012, interventions

have to be made in order to address learning gaps. Moreover, in accordance with the national

program ECARP (Every Child a Reader Program), teachers should come up with strategies

which aim to make every Filipino child a reader.

As stipulated in Philippine Standards for Professional Teachers (PPST) Module 11, it

is the prime mandate of teachers to monitor and evaluate learners’ reading and achievement.

Thus, a reading program that will cater to the different reading needs of learners is expected

among teachers and the school.

Project 4Ps: (Pag-unawa’y Palalimin Pagbabasa’y Paunlarin) is designed to provide

assistance to learners who encountered difficulty in understanding their lessons during this

new normal set up of education. Furthermore, it aims to provide technical assistance to

parents and guardians as to how they can help their children and wards in a home-based

learning scheme.

As per school’s Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) and Work and Financial Plan

(SIP), the school has targeted facility development, infra-projects, beautification plans and

environmental sustainability which will redound to the school’s realizations of its goals and

achieving favorable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) as per Key Result Areas (KRAs) (see

attached AIP).
