Such programs can be administered both in and out of the traditional classroom environment to boost the development of reading and literacy skills of non-readers. Malalinta National High School was chosen by the Schools Division of Isabela to conduct the pilot testing of Supplementary Materials for Reading Instruction and Intervention in Grade 9 Filipino for the frustration readers. Thus the Filipino teacher, Maricel P. Dulay identified and contacted the 6 male frustration readers or who had reading difficulties through messenger, and phone calls with the help of the Grade 9 advisers. She conducted the pilot testing in Grade 9 Filipino on March 7 & 8, 2022 through face to face instruction and messenger call for those who cannot come to school because of lack of transportation. With the observance of IATF health protocol and the Alert Level 1, 0 COVID case of the barangay where the school is located, we preferred to pilot test the materials in the school except for the one who resides outside Malalinta proper. After reading, the comprehension questions/activities were answered by the learners. After an hour, the learners gave back the reading materials with answers to the teacher for checking. As an assessment, the students can read Filipino but they cannot comprehend based on the result of the given materials.
