Description
Reading supports language mastery but remedial pupils often struggle due to limited vocabulary and weak sound awareness. This study examined the effectiveness of the Look-Say-Cover-Write-Check (LSCWC) strategy in improving reading among Year 4 remedial pupils. Using pre- and post-tests, interviews, and observations, findings showed significant improvement in word recognition, spelling, and reading accuracy. Pupils also displayed greater enjoyment and motivation. The study concludes that LSCWC is an effective approach for enhancing remedial pupils’ reading skills.
Summary
This presentation reports on an action research study exploring the effectiveness of the Look-Say-Cover-Write-Check (LSCWC) strategy in improving reading skills among Year 4 remedial pupils. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combined pre- and post-tests, classroom observations, and interviews. Findings revealed significant gains in word recognition, spelling accuracy, and learner motivation. The LSCWC strategy proved effective, low-cost, and engaging, supporting reading development and promoting independent learning among struggling readers.
