Abstract

Various research on initial literacy has pointed out the importance of reading and writing texts as relevant language acquisition activities in the classroom. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a support program to increase the level of reading and writing of first and second grade students in the educational institution based on reading and writing activities of texts according to the global literacy method. 11 primary school students participated who were selected through the application of a diagnostic instrument to know the initial level of literacy of the students in the first and second grade groups. The results indicated that the 11 participating students were at a lower literacy level than the predominant alphabetic level of the rest of their groupmates. The activities carried out by the participating students consist of reading short texts and then answering a series of questions in writing. These activities were carried out for two hours, twice a week over a period of 3 months. At the end of the implementation, the instrument is applied again to determine the level of reading and writing. The results showed a higher level than that initially obtained, which is why it is considered that the program was successful in helping to increase the students' reading and writing level.
