This study aimed to determine the Effectiveness of Master of Basic Sight Words to determine the reading of the Grade 1 pupils. The findings of the study served as a basis of a proposed intervention plan. This study applied the Quasi-Experimental type of research design in determining the Effectiveness of the MOBSW in in determining the reading performance of the Grade 1 pupils.The researcher utilized Universal Sampling in identifying the respondents of the study. The test of difference between the scores in the pre-test and posttest performances of the Grade 1 pupils before and after the integration of the Master of Basic Sight Words in determining the reading performances of the identified respondents prior to the 4 weeks implementation. The test of difference on the reading performance of the pupils is based on the different strategies or discussions on how the learners know how to read and write the words or group of words or set of letters presented every day based from the timelines prepared by the teacher-researcher. The results shows that the pretest scores gained by the Grade 1 pupils before they were experienced the aforementioned intervention in teaching reading is lesser than the posttest score. This scores were based on the things that they gained before and after the implementation of the intervention. So the hypothesis which states that there is no significant difference in the pretest and posttest performance of the Grade 1 pupils before and after the integration of the master of Basic sight words is rejected. The results in table 3 on the test of difference on the results of the scores before and after the intervention implied that the MOBWS is significantly effective in improving the reading performance of the Grade 1 pupils because as we recall to the pretest performance which is equal to the good level of performance and that during the time the learners are purely have the ideas on the common words which they can easily be remembered or recognized based from the assessment tools given by the teacher-researcher. It also reveals that the learners or the beginning readers reach the point where they are already familiar with some of the letters only or group of letters while after conducting the intervention, majority of the learners have gained enough knowledge on the intervention given to them which was the Master of Basic sight Word. In other words, those common words that they have encountered from the discussions were already learned by them and remembered or recognized. They can easily Familiarized with some of the letters or group of letters even if the teacher will no longer reveal the sound of each of the letter being presented or discussed. Some reasons for the very good result gained by the Grade 1 learners is that they can actually learned those things at hand during the discussions meaning, the more that they will be integrating ideas to the teachers, the more that they will be learning the discussions. The above citation reveals that the intervention is significantly effective in improving the reading performance of the Grade 1 pupils.
