6/5/2012Seeing it visually…• Is the school conducive for learning?• Are the teachers competent? Do they haveemotional maturity? Do they lack socialsense?• Does the community show support forliteracy?• Are there enough reading materials inschools/libraries?• Are there clear policies and projects thatsupports developmental reading programs?Factors Affecting Reading Development1. Physical and Clinical Factors2. Predictors of School Entry3. Acquired Knowledge of Literacy4. Family Based Factors5. Neighborhood, Community, and School-Based FactorsI feel the problems we have been experiencingregarding the teaching of reading and literacy havebecome worse through the years. Evidence appearsin our dailies after every achievement testadministered in our schools, especially those underthe Department of Education. Allowing someexaggeration, I think I can say this is the dilemma ofour time.What could be the probable causes of thisseemingly unsolvable problem? Since I have notmade any formal study of this problem, I would liketo suggest some tentative answers.I have a feeling this problem is theresult of the blind leading theblind: in plain language, anuntrained ignorant teacher canonly produce untrained, ignorantstudents. Many teachers todayteach the way they were taughtwithout considering the fact thatsituations have changed. Very fewteacher training institutions offercourses that will ensure thedevelopment of good reading. Well trained teachers can producegood results even with substandardmaterials, but when poor teachingand low quality materials are puttogether, you can be sure theresults will be dismal for students.Examine the materials found in theschool library. Are there any booksaside from those donated by theAsia Foundation or other agencies?Of course those foundations aredoing a wonderful job filling ourlibraries with books but sorry to saythey are mostly outdated and arejust old textbooks that are meantto be thrown away.With 60 or more students ineach class, it is almostimpossible to deliverinstruction, much less qualityinstruction. A few students maylearn well, but a great majoritywill be left half baked and somewill definitely be leaving thegrade level without masteringanything. Associated with thisproblem are the dilapidatedclassrooms and equipment. Youwill just wonder how learningtakes place in such a situation.3
6/5/2012If I ask you what book have youread from January to thepresent, you would probably justlook at me and smile—the sameresponse I get from the otherpeople whenever I ask thisquestion. Well, whether you likeit or not we have to admit thatFilipinos are not fond of reading.We prefer watching TV orlistening to the radio. We alsoare fond of talking orstorytelling. Remember: you cannever pass on what you don’thave.Many youngsters’ schooling has been totallyjeopardized by the attraction of children tocomputers.Analyze the following situations and determinewhich of these is the problem:1. Physical or Clinical Factors2. Predictors of School Entry3. Acquired Knowledge of Literacy4. Family Based Factors5. Neighborhood, Community, and SchoolFactorsSean is 10 years old. After school, heimmediately faces the computer and playsgames. Whenever his mom sees him, shealways ignores what he’s doing. When theissuance of report cards come, Sean receivespoor marks in the major subjects, particularlyReading.Mae is in Mr. Bernardo’s Grade 5 class. She hashad difficulty in learning to read. Even in thesecond grade she only reads about thepreschool level. When asked about the printmaterials she prefers to read, she said she likedplaying with dolls and browsing fashionmagazines. She also said that her brothers playloud music and home. Hence, she could notconcentrate on reading.Renz was more in Cebu and migrated to Manila.He is now in Grade 4 and is reading in English atabout the 3 rd level. Although he can understandEnglish and uses it occasionally, he still prefersto speak Filipino. His teachers in other subjectsreport that Renz sometimes lags behind, notonly in reading but also in speaking, listening,and writing.4
