I. Rationale

Republic Act No. 10157, AN ACT INSTITUTIONALIZING THE KINDERGARTEN

EDUCATION INTO THE BASIC EDUCATION SYSTEM AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS
THEREFORE mandates Deped to provide equal opportunities for all children to avail of
accessible mandatory and compulsory kindergarten education that effectively promotes physical,
social, intellectual, emotional and skills stimulation and values formation to sufficiently prepare
them for formal elementary schooling. This Act shall apply to elementary school system being the
first stage of compulsory and mandatory formal education. Thus, kindergarten will now be an
integral part of the basic education system of the country. One duty and function of Deped is
developing materials that shall consist (i) Listening story (ii) Small books;(iii) Big books;(iv)
Experience story;(v) Primer lessons; and(vi) Lessons exemplar.

Students‟ reading comprehension is very essential because it may affect the students‟
interpretation in understanding the written form. The ability to adequately understand what is
being read has always been the foundation of what is considered as a successful reading. In one
sense, the comprehension of a text is an easy concept to recognize; yet it is also one of the most
complex and relatively unknown cognitive process in the field of literacy education. The
success of reading comprehension depends on the reader‟s knowledge, experiences and
language skills. When the students are good in reading comprehension, they will be able to
interpret the text and get many vocabularies from what they have read. Students will make
greater progress and achieve greater development in all academic areas by strengthening their
reading abilities (Anderson, 2002). Because of those importance of reading, teaching reading must
be started from the early age or well known as young learners. Teaching English for young
learners includes the introduction or exploring the Big Books.
Abra Elementary School propose a project which primarily address the need of the school
of contextualized big books that can be useful in teaching beginning reading and can enhanced
comprehension among intermediate learners.
