OES Orani addresses problems in reading among schoolchildren

“Readers today, Leaders Tomorrow”. Anchored on the belief that reading is a vital aspect of man’s education, the OES Orani recently launched its Remedial Reading Instruction to selected pupils of Orani District.
The program was simultaneously held in Orani South Elementary School, Orani North Elementary School and Alikabok Elementary School. Mrs. Emily Mendoza, Dr. Carolina Sugpatan and Mrs. Erlinda Bonifacio, principals of the said schools warmly welcomed the university extensionists during the opening programs held last April 28, 2008.
Reading instructions in the three schools were headed by Mrs. Angelina Acuna and Mrs. Delia Llave along with OC instructors Alicia M. Ocampo, Isabelita V. Isidro, Corazon Angeles, Flordeliza Peria, Khristina Dimarucut, Herren Miguel, Digna Millondaga, Katrina Corpuz and Lilibeth Santos.
The biggest attendance listed was in Orani South Elementary School which registered 102 students for the said program. There were 66 students who participated in Alikabok Elementary School and 39 in Orani South Elementary School. To meet the needs of each age group, classes were held separately.
The university extensionists who involved in the activity used materials which were patterned after the Philippine Informal Reading Inventory, prepared by the Deped—Bureau of Elementary Education.
Reading instructions culminated last May 26 2008 in three separate closing programs held in the said schools.
