To achieve the purpose of the study, an evaluation design was employed. For this sixty (60) grade 11 students and six (6) English language teachers were involved. The students were selected by using simple random sampling technique whereas the four English teachers were selected purposively. The data collection instruments used were text bo ok analysis, questionnaire, and interview. Text book analysis was used to see the overall appropriacy of the texts. Questionnaire was developed to gather data from the students. Moreover, an interview with English language teachers was used to cross check the inter-consistency of the data obtained from other tools. The data collected through questionnaire were analyzed by number, frequency and percentage quantitatively. The data collected from the text book analysis and the interview were analyzed qualitatively by narration. As a result, the findings of the study revealed that most literary texts are relevant means for teaching reading incase they are prepared considering different requirements related with not only students but also teachers. This means, teaching and learning reading through literary inputs is effective if the texts are free from language difficulty, cultural unfamiliarity, lengthy, etc. | |
