It is consistent with prior research (Fara & Fara, 2023;Rahayu & Mustadi, 2022;Sofyan et al, 2021;Sopiah & Gaffar, 2023) and supports the notion of Badawi et al (2021) that a lack of reading fluency is caused by a lack of reading aloud. In terms of accuracy, the improvement achieved a low percentage of only 20% of the number of children who improved in both "very good" and "good" categories over prior treatment.…”

Additionally, it motivates kids to read and gradually improves their reading comprehension, which raises their literacy level (Sajid & Kassim, 2019).…”
