Abstract
This paper examines strategies to improve reading comprehension in grades 4 to 6 learners. This research aims to assess the effectiveness of paired reading techniques as a response to the reading difficulties of the learners. A pretest was conducted to measure the learner’s reading comprehension using the Phil Iri reading selections. The result of the pretest was the basis on pairing the learners and conducting the intervention using reading selections. After the implementation of the intervention, a posttest is given to the learners to examine the effectiveness of the paired reading technique. Data were collected through pretest, posttest, and observations and analyzed using frequency and percentage counts and the Wilcoxon W. Test. The result showed that the paired reading technique improve learners' reading comprehension. It encourages creativity, collaboration, and active participation. Also given were the recommendations for the effective implementation of paired reading techniques to the learners. Finally, this paper proposes an action plan that can be used to help the learners to improve their reading comprehension.
