Statement of the problem

As the researcher of this research, I have found out that many of my students in
grade VII are able to read fluently, but still have difficulty in answering the “how” and
“why” questions. I am hoping that by incorporating higher order thinking skills my
students would be able to transfer and make connections to reading. This is
important in order for a child to be successful. I feel that incorporating reading
strategies and showing students how to reflect about what they have read, would
improve their reading comprehension and to become life-long learners.

Intervention
The general focus of this study was on the Improving Reading Comprehension
through the use of higher order thinking skills activities. The study will look into the
different reading strategies. The Metacomprehension Strategey Index is a tool had a
total of 25 questions divided into 3 parts. Part I of MSI is consist of statement about
the strategies used prior to reading a story. Part II of the MSI consist of statement
about the strategies used while reading a story, and the part III of the MSI consist of
statement about the strategies used after reading story.
