2. Introduction
• This study investigates the effectiveness of
strategic interventions in enhancing the
reading comprehension skills of Grade 7
learners at Mambusao National High School.
Key research questions include:
• - What are the learners' comprehension levels
before the intervention?
• - How do strategic interventions impact
comprehension skills?
• - Are there differences in outcomes based on

3. Pre-Test Results
• Pre-test results showed a mean score of 3.50,
categorized as 'Full Refresher.'
• - Indicates frequent errors and limited
understanding.
• - Baseline comprehension skills were low
across all demographic groups.

4. Intervention Overview
• The intervention spanned 5 weeks, focusing
on:
• - Week 1: Phonics and basic decoding skills.
• - Week 2: Vocabulary-building activities.
• - Week 3: Use of graphic organizers.
• - Week 4: Fluency and speed reading.
• - Week 5: Critical thinking and text analysis.

5. Post-Test Results
• Post-test results showed a significant
improvement, with a mean score of 14.00,
classified as 'Proficient.'
• - Indicates accurate answers and clear
comprehension.
• - Demonstrates the effectiveness of the
strategic interventions.

6. Comparison of Pre-Test and Post-
Test
• Pre-Test Mean: 3.50 ('Full Refresher')
• Post-Test Mean: 14.00 ('Proficient')
• - Improvement reflects the positive impact of
strategic interventions.

7. Demographic Analysis
• Significant findings:
• - No differences based on sex or previous
school attended.
• - Significant differences based on estimated
family income.
• Implications: Socio-economic factors influence
baseline comprehension skills.

8. Key Findings
• - Strategic interventions led to substantial
improvements in reading comprehension.
• - Success was consistent across most
demographic groups.
• - Socio-economic disparities were mitigated
through targeted instruction.

9. Literature Alignment
• - Findings align with studies by Dizon et al.
(2020) and Santos (2019).
• - Reinforce the importance of tailored
instructional materials.
• - Highlight the role of strategic interventions in
bridging comprehension gaps.

10. Implications and
Recommendations
• - Integrate targeted reading interventions into
regular instruction.
• - Address socio-economic disparities through
accessible resources.
• - Encourage further research on strategic
instructional materials.

11. Conclusion
• The study demonstrates the effectiveness of
strategic interventions in enhancing reading
comprehension among Grade 7 learners.
Results emphasize the need for well-designed
instructional strategies to support diverse
learner needs.
