Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the acceptability of the Reaching Hand Printed Reading Materials (PREAM) for Grade 2 learners among 75 Elementary teachers of District 7 in the Division of Binan City and 75 Grade 2 parents. The researcher developed reading materials to lessen the number of struggling readers. The researcher identified the teachers' and parents' level of acceptance in terms of the materials objectives, content, reading strategies, comprehension questions, accuracy, visual appeal, depth of knowledge, and ease of use and support. The descriptive method of research was used to determine the acceptability of the created reading materials among the respondents. A 5-point Likert scale was the research instrument used to rate the reading materials based on the indicators. Mean, standard deviation, and t-test were used to determine the average and difference of the ratings. Based on the collected data, objectives, content, reading strategies, and comprehension questions of the materials were highly appropriate for the Grade 2 learners. The reading materials were highly accurate and highly appealing. Depth of knowledge and ease of use and support were observed by the respondents of the study. The null hypothesis which states that there is no significant difference between the ratings made by the teachers and parents was rejected. It showed the acceptance of the reading materials which the teachers and parents could use with the learners. It is recommended that Elementary teachers and parents use the reading materials as an intervention in the school and at home.
