Abstract

This study applied the concept of a descriptive type of research. Likewise, 80 Grade 11 students of Don Manuel Rivera Memorial Integrated National High School, Pila, Laguna, S.Y. 2020-2021 were selected as the respondents of the study. Similarly, the study aimed to identify the status of the learners? performance in pre-writing; the learners? performance in post-writing following the concept of the three paragraph strategies such as clustering, outlining and freewriting; lastly, the significant difference in the status of the learners? paragraph writing performance after being introduced to writing strategies. Weighted Average Mean and Standard Deviation was used to determine the level of the learners? writing performance both in pre-writing and post-writing. While, Anova was used to identify if there was difference in the status of the learners? performance after being introduced to the writing strategies. As the result shows, the learners? performance in pre-writing was interpreted as Average. Meanwhile, during the post-writing, the learners performed Very Good using the clustering writing strategy, Good following the concept of outlining and also Good applying the freewriting writing strategy respectively. Likewise, based on the computation, the learners? performance in the pre-writing and post-writing was significantly different which explains that there was an improvement in their writing performance after being introduced to paragraph strategies. Thus, there was significant difference in the learners? writing performance after being introduced to the writing strategies; therefore, the hypothesis stating that there is no significant difference in the learners? writing performance after being introduced to paragraph writing strategies is rejected. Based on the results and findings of the study, it is highly recommended that learners from all grade levels shall be introduced to the paragraph writing strategies.
