comprehension level, text types, Grade 9

This study was delimited to the comprehension level of selected Grade 9 learners in Bolinao I and II Districts during the school year 2023-2024. The data gathered were properly coded, recorded, tallied, tabulated and interpreted using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) for windows. Frequency counts, percentages and weighted mean and standard were used for descriptive analysis. The researcher found out that learners tend to reflect good comprehension of selections written in both genres - narrative and expository -as comprehension level seemed not related to text types. The learners’ comprehension levels were of varying degrees based on test types. Their comprehension level adjusted to the test type they were asked to do. Learners did not do well in cloze test using exact responses in both narrative and expository texts. Thus, it may be modified to semantically acceptable responses to see more clearly how learners process the texts both in narrative and expository texts. Good comprehension was revealed in test type using English informal reading inventories both in narrative and expository texts. Teachers may keep on using informal reading inventories for assessment. Learners were at their best with regards to comprehension using retelling as a test type. Teachers may maximize this advantage so that learners excel as readers of narrative and expository texts. Good comprehension level in reading English narrative texts was slightly related to good comprehension level in expository texts. The score obtained in reading narrative text was slightly related to their score in reading expository text. The researcher recommended that teachers may continue giving assessment materials in narrative and expository text because both are related to one another. Test item developers may construct standardized cloze test and additional retelling passages to have alternative means for assessing comprehension. Knowing the comprehension level of levels on different test types shows different dimensions of comprehension as one reads. This will guide the teachers in their instructional planning anchored on the needs of learners in the classroom and on the demands of Filipino national examinations.
