Reading skills are the most basic skills for academic learning and success in school.  According to a study conducted in the United States, the ability to read fluently was very significant
 related to how much a person can achieve in his personal and professional life (Blok & Israel, 2005).  For this reason the author decided to carry out this action research.  According to Brown
  and Dowling (2001), action research is a term applied to projects where practitioners
  seek to effect transform.  Generally, action research is carried out
  in school settings.  Corey (1953) believes that the value of research actions in change takes place in everyday practice rather than generalizing to a wider audience.  Action research is
  reflective process and dealing with practical problems that are close to the instructor and allow them to make changes.  The main objective of this action research is to find a real solution
  problems faced at school and looking for ways to improve student success.  Action process
 research helps educators assess needs, document the steps of investigation, analyze data, and
  make informed decisions that can lead to the desired results.
  Stages of an action
  research is;
 1. planning
 2. acting
 3. observe
 4. reflect (McNiff, 1988: 22)
  The results of the study show that students increase understanding when they analyze which strategies are most effective.
  they use and how it helps understand the meaning of the text.

  The purpose of this research project is to determine the level of awareness of reading students
 and improve their reading strategies.  Teacher researchers use six strategies;  predict, make
 connection, visualize, conclude, question, and summarize.  Strategy introduced to
  students
 learning,
  showed that 9 out of 14 students did not know the strategy.  First the strategy
  modeled by teacher researchers and as a second step the strategy is practiced by the whole
  class, then small group, and finally independent.  Following reading presentations
 strategy, the teacher researcher was given the Metacomprehension Strategy Index (MSI) to see
 if the strategy presented has changed students' understanding in reading.  Index is a tool
  where familiarity about reading strategies is used before, during, and after reading.  The teacher researcher then practices four reading texts from the textbook
 four weeks.
