The process where teachers delete every 5th word from a passage and students fill in the blanks is known as what?

  1. Basal Reading

  2. Cloze Procedure

  3. KWL Chart

  4. Semantic Mapping

The correct answer is: Basal Reading

The correct answer is A. Basal Reading. Basal reading is a method where teachers delete every 5th word from a passage, and students are required to fill in the blanks. This strategy helps students improve their reading comprehension by engaging them actively in the process of reading and understanding the text. Option B, Cloze Procedure, involves a similar process of deleting words from a passage for students to fill in the blanks, but it is not specifically related to reading instruction. Options C and D, KWL Chart and Semantic Mapping, are graphic organizers used for different purposes in reading instruction and do not involve the specific process described in the question stem.
