Accomplishment Report in Phil-IRI
The Department of Education (DepEd) supports Every Child a Reader Program, which
aims to make every Filipino child a reader and a writer at his/her grade level. Thus, the DepEd
through the Bureau of Learning Delivery-Teaching and Learning Division (BLD-TLD) continue
to administer the Revised Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (Phil-IRI) assessment to
learners in public elementary schools nationwide.
One of its objectives is to use the Phil-IRI data to serve as one of the bases in planning,
designing/redesigning the reading instruction of the teachers and the school’s reading programs
or activities to improve the overall school’s reading performance.
Langagan Elementary School upholds the objectives of BLD-TLD in order to attain the
objectives of country's Education for All. Based on the reading passages and findings of the Phil-
IRI which was conducted in September 2021 to all Grade 3-6 pupils, it showed that most of them
had poor comprehension skills in reading and there are those reading levels were in frustration.
By conducting remedial instructions, video-record reading technique, online reading and
distributing reading materials to those identified learners with poor comprehension, the learners
increased their reading levels from frustration to instructional and independent levels.

necessary.
Result and Assessment
To assess the reading levels of the students, the Phil-IRI Post Test was conducted. The
result of the pretest and post-test is shown in the graph below. There were 141 pupils who have
been part of the Phil-IRI Assessment and their Level of Comprehension was divided into three
groups: Independent, Instructional and Frustration.
Figure 1. Level of Reading Performance of Grades 4-6 Pupils in English based on Phil-IRI
Pretest Result
Figure 1 shows the level of reading performance of Grades 4-6 pupils in English.
Specifically, out of 95 pupils, 50 or 52.63% of the respondents were on Frustration level and 34
or 35.79% of them were on Instructional level while 11 or 11.58% of them were on Independent
level.
This implies that almost all of the respondents were having problems in reading specially
on reading comprehensions.

Independent level. From the graph, it can be gleaned that pupils are good in reading Filipino as
majority of them are on Instructional Level. However, still many of them are in Frustration level
and only few considered as Independent readers.

gradually improved. The post test result shows that there were 59 or 62.11% Independent
readers, 26 or 27.37% Instructional readers and 10 or 10.53% Frustration readers which means
that there is an increase percentage in Independent readers and decrease percentage in
Instructional and Frustration readers from the total population of the Grades 4-6 pupils who are

Interactive and Contextualized Activities for Reading Enhancement
As the Phil-IRI
Coordinator of
school, I came up
with a Project I
CARE as my
roadmap to
enhance the
reading skills of
these pupils under
frustration level.
The contextualized
reading activities
that I made,
printed and
laminated are used
as materials for
reading
enhancement of
pupils.
With this initiative,

it would be a great
help to improve
the reading skills of
pupils in our
school.
Other interactive
activities are yet to
be done.

Conclusion

Telephone No: (078) 304-2300
It must, in conclusion, be emphasized that conducting reading remediation is not easy as
many teachers reckon. It needs a lot of patience and time flexibility to fulfill the needs of these
pupils under reading difficulties.
Nevertheless, with the remediation activities conducted, it can be noted that the reading
performance of pupils gradually improved into independent level and decreased in frustration
level.
By constantly doing this kind of initiatives, then we can affirm that “No Child is Left
Behind” despite of many limitations that Covid-19 had given. And that gives us teachers the
feeling of worth and self-fulfillment.
