Pre- and post-tests were administered to both groups to determine their reading comprehension development, particularly at the literal comprehension level with narrative texts. Statistical tests such as the t-test, homogeneity test, and normality test were used to assess the data.With the mean score rising from 28.72 on the pre-test to 56.70 on the post-test, the experimental group's reading comprehension scores shown a significant improvement, according to the data. The mean score for the control group, however, dropped from 31.48 to 26.32.
