Habang naghahanda ng school supplies, may isang bagay na madalas nating nakakalimutan...

Handa na bang magbasa sa Filipino ang anak natin?

Sa Grade 2-3, hindi na sapat na nakakabasa lang. Kailangan din nilang maintindihan ang kanilang binabasa.🤓

At kapag may reading gap, dito kadalasang nagsisimula ang hirap sa assignments, quizzes, at classroom activities.

Kaya bago magsimula ang school year, alamin muna natin kung saan sila nahihirapan. Sa ganitong paraan, mas maihahanda natin sila bago ang pasukan.

A) Pronunciation

B) Understanding words

C) Reading speed

D) Lack of interest

Alam mong matalino at masigasig sa pag-aaral ang anak mo, pero natitigilan siya sa mga salita dahil hindi niya mabigkas nang maayos at hindi pa rin niya naiintindihan ang binabasa niya.

Hindi siya tamad.
Hindi siya mabagal.
Kailangan niya ng ibang paraan ng pagtuutro ng pagbabasa.

Happy new month, parents! As we step into June, let’s focus on nurturing our children’s reading skills. This way, we can help them get ready for school. What’s one reading goal you have for your child this month? Share with us in the comments 🤗

"𝗠𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝟮 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗼." Have you noticed the same?

Despite guidance in reading, does your child often say, "I don't understand what I read"? Or struggle to sound out words correctly?

We get it. This is scary, especially with the school year approaching. But here's what we know, many Grade 2 students need structured support in reading—especially in Filipino. You're not alone, and it's not too late.

At Lydiamary Learning and Development Center, we specialize in helping Grade 2–3 students:

✅ Sound out words with confidence (no more guessing).

✅ Understand what they read (so learning sticks).

We work one-on-one at your child's pace, with a licensed teacher who understands Filipino learning contexts.

Here's the best part 😊

👉 We offer a FREE ASSESSMENT and FREE TRIAL CLASS so you can see the approach first-hand—zero pressure, zero payment upfront.

Mommy at Daddy, isa sa karaniwang dahilan ng mabagal na reading development sa Grade 2–3 ay limitado pa ang exposure ng bata sa mga sight words at vocabulary. Kaya kahit kaya niyang basahin ang mga salita, hindi pa niya agad matukoy ang kahulugan ng salita.

Dahil dito, napuputol ang daloy ng pagbabasa. Humihina ang pag-unawa sa pangungusap, at kadalasan nauuwi sa paghula na lang ng sagot sa worksheets o exams. Kapag nagpatuloy ito, puwedeng maapektuhan ang confidence ng bata sa pagbabasa at lalo siyang umiwas dito.

Isa sa simpleng solusyon: magbasa ng komiks.

Sa komiks, ang mga sight words ay hindi hiwalay o walang kahulugan—nakikita ng bata ang mga ito sa loob ng isang kwento na may larawan, galaw, at emosyon. Dahil may visual context, mas madaling nare-retain ng bata ang mga salita at mas mabilis niyang naiintindihan ang binabasa niya.

Regular na komiks reading = mas natural na pag-build ng vocabulary at comprehension.

Kapag mas marami siyang naiintindihan na words, mas maiintindihan niya ang exam, worksheets at itong komiks na Ang Magkapatid na Magkaibigan.

Nakakapangamba ’yan—lalo na kung nasa Grade 2–3 ang anak mo. Foundation years pa naman ito. Dito nade-develop ang fluency at comprehension na gagamitin nila sa mas mataas na grade levels.

If you spend just 10 minutes of quality reading time kasama ang anak mo, here’s one simple habit you can add: build a sight word bank.

Here’s how:

1️⃣Pumili ng libro o anumang reading material na interesado ang anak mo sa paksa.

2️⃣ Bago magbasa, pumili ng pito (7) sight words mula sa babasahin. Isulat ang bawat salita at ang kahulugan nito. Ito ang magiging entry ninyo sa sight word bank.

3️⃣ Bawat araw, pumili ng isang salita at gamitin ito sa inyong pang-araw-araw na pag-uusap.

Ulitin ang mga salitang ito throughout the week hanggang maging natural na bahagi ng vocabulary niya.

Mommy and Daddy, some kids in Grade 2 or 3 aren't really reading Filipino. They're just guessing. They look at the letter and say a word that seems to fit. They skip words they don't know. They change words without realizing it. Ask them what the paragraph means and they get quiet.

At this level, reading is more than sounding out words.

It's understanding what instruction means in the test, reading kasaysayan and understanding maikling kuwento.

Guessing seems like it doesn't matter.

Until it does.

By Grade 4 lessons start moving. The gaps that were easy to hide become harder to ignore. A child who never really understood what they were reading starts struggling in ways that go beyond reading...By then it's much harder to fix.

The sooner you catch it the easier it is to fix.

Lots of kids guess to get by and it can be fixed.

Especially at their age.

You won't leave with a vague feeling that everything is okay. You'll know exactly what's going on.. You'll know what to do next.

It can be discouraging when, after hours of reteaching, they still struggle to understand. Even more so when they say, “Mom/Dad, I don’t get it—Filipino Language feels like a foreign language.”

The good news is that reading difficulties can be overcome.

Children’s brains are flexible—they can unlearn habits that don’t help and relearn skills that make reading easier.

Here are three simple strategies you can try at home:

1️⃣Think-aloud reading: Take turns reading and share your thoughts about the text.

2️⃣Word focus: Choose one word to explore together using a dictionary.

3️⃣Prediction: If it’s a story, encourage your child to guess what might happen next.

Learning to read takes time, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you need support, send us a message—we’ll help your child build reading skills while giving you back precious time.
