The effect of using reading comprehension strategy to acquire problem-solving skills in mathematics among tenth-grade students in Amman

Abstract

The current study sought to investigate the effect of using the reading comprehension strategy in the unit of systems of linear equations, for the third intermediate grade on the development of problem-solving skills in mathematics. The researcher used the experimental approach - the semi-experimental design based on one group, where the study population consisted of the tenth grade at Arjan School in Amman Governorate year (2020/2019). The sample of the study included (25) students fromthe Arjan School in Amman Governoratethe study for the semester unit dealt with linear equations from the Tenth grade. The results of the study indicated the positive effect of teaching mathematics for the tenth grade of middle school using a reading comprehension strategy compared to the traditional method, where the results indicated that there were statistically significant differences at the level of significance (α = 0.05) between the pre and post-test of the study sample
