Title: Project SPARK (SPREADING PASSION AND ACTIVATING READING
KNOWLEGE):
I. RATIONALE
Introduction
Reading is essentially the most important subject in the school curriculum. Its importance is
concretely seen in the result or achievement of a student in his individual subjects. For there are no other
subject in the school’s program could be learned by students, if they weren’t taught to read effectively and
efficiently, especially the comprehension part of it. Thus, the success or failure of the students depends very
well on their mastery in reading.
Since, reading is considered as the most important skill a student has to master so that his desired
ambition and plans will be realized; thus, it is highly recommended that teachers (Language and non –
language teachers)as well must also be developed as book lovers. It is because, this would definitely armed
the teacher with the love, wisdom and understanding to be extended to the slow and non – readers, touching
them to help the student read very well like they do.
This was clearly affirmed by Strang and others when they said, “Reading is the most important subject
to be learned by children: children will learn little in today’s world if they do not first learn to read properly.
Surveys show that non – or poor readers become the delinquent, the unemployed, or the misfit in a society.”
Further asserted by our very own Freddie Aguilar in his song Isang Kahig, Isang Tuka “I had only finished
grade one and I am illiterate – can not read and cannot write, how I could go on with my life”. This has a
stronger impact in our national language: “grade one lang ang inabot ko, no read, no write pa ako, paano na
ngayon ang buhay ko”.
Consequently, the inability to read is the fundamental cause of failure among students and the success
in reading therefore, is the success in school and in future life.
Ruth Strang in Problems in the Improvement of Reading says that the best possible way to attack these
reading difficulties is by a remedial or developmental reading program. Of such programs, she says: “This
reading program helps to build new interest as well as to use old ones. Reading opens doors, takes the

reader into new places, and brings him into contact with both real and imaginary characters that may or may
not wish to adopt their interest or ideas.
Strang goes on further to say that the primary goal of all remedial/developmental reading is to enable us
to develop our hidden skills in effective reading.
This greatly touched the proponent to propose the implementation of the Project SPARK (Spreading
Passion and Activating Reading Knowledge) as a reading remediation program of Tuao Vocational and
Technical School to its seven (7) identified slow and non-readers to give them corrective measures and be
able to develop passion in reading and to activate their reading knowledge through enhancement activities
