Studying the reading performance of Grade 2 Learners using Marungko Approach is essential in creating an effective intervention plan. In this context, this study assess the reading performance of Grade 2 learners exposed to Marungko approach in five public elementary school located in remote areas of a large size school division in Northern Negros. The data for this descriptive research study were gathered using a researcher-made survey questionnaire which was pilot tested and validated. Overall, the data showed a significant presence of younger pupils in Grade 2, with a typical family structure and a diverse socio-economic backgrounds. The study’s findings regarding reading performance showed that the learners are skilled in phonics knowledge, word recognition, decoding skills and passage reading. Similarly, when grouped according to the aforementioned variables, the level of reading performance in phonics knowledge, word recognition, decoding and passage reading are also in proficient scale. Furthermore, a significant difference was found in the level of reading performance in phonics knowledge when grouped and compared according to number of siblings and average family monthly income. However, no significant difference was detected based on age. Moreover, the reading performance in terms of Word Recognition, Decoding and Passage Reading, does not show a significant difference when grouped and compared by the aforementioned variables. The study results call for the professional development training of teachers about programs on evidence practices, motivation for parental involvement and consideration of long term studies.
