Abstract : The purpose of this study is to examine how home-school collaboration affects kindergarteners' reading motivation. The researcher chose 100 kindergarten teachers in Talomo A District, Davao City, as study participants. Respondents were chosen using stratified random sampling. A causal-comparative quantitative research design was used. Data was analyzed using these statistical tools: Mean Percentage Scores, Frequency Distribution Percentage, Mean, Independent Sample T-Test, and Eta-Squared Univariate General Linear Model. One category (n=50) was assigned to home-school collaboration and the other to non- collaborative groups by simple random assignment. The results showed that kindergarteners in Talomo A District, Davao City, had extensive reading motivation. Additional results demonstrated a substantial statistical difference in kindergarten students' reading motivation between home- school collaboration and non-collaboration groups. The results also demonstrate that home-school partnership improved kindergarteners in Talomo A District, Davao City. Thus, home-school partnership made this issue easier to teach. The study was done to publish findings in a recognized academic journal.

Keywords : Educational Management, Reading Motivation of Kindergarten Pupils, Home-School Collaboration, Davao City, Philippines.
