Abstract

This research is about Reading comprehension as this is sixth grade primary level students´ main learning problem. It responds to a request from the Ministry of Education aimed at developing pedagogical suggestions from the master´s program at San Ignacio de Loyola University 2016. Methodologically is an applied educational research. The sample used is intentional and judgmental in which we applied different methods and instruments as part of the field diagnostic that allowed us verify the current condition of the researched problem, the reason and the consequences in the students. As an essential conclusion we have shaped a methodological proposal which has scientific references and guides teachers´ transformation in directing the reading comprehension learning – teaching process from critical, reflective and metacognitive positions that affects students´ way of thinking, feeling and performing.
