Abstract : This study determined the status of implementation of the Teacher's Reading Aid & Comprehensive Tool for Students and its effect on the teaching efficiency in Grade 4 at Balatas Elementary School, Department of Education Naga City Division during School Year 2023-2024. To realize this, the following concerns were looked into: the status of the implementation of the Teacher’s Reading Kit and enhancement interventions that can be crafted based on the salient findings of the study to address the reading difficulties of Grade Four pupils effectively. The respondents of this study were identified using the quantitative data that determines the number of Grade 4 pupils in two sections: Joy and Perseverance. A total of 79 Grade 4 pupils served as the respondents of the study. The Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (Phil-IRI) Assessment Tool was utilized as one of the evaluation tools. Simple percentage calculations and the weighted mean were used to treat the gathered data. It was concluded that teachers proposed to create and implement tailored learning plans, specialized, and looked closely at the variables that are unique to each student as well as the instructional strategies, interventions, and other elements that affect reading proficiency levels.
