Through this activity, pupils had the opportunity to discover books in an engaging way while strengthening their ability to understand and interpret information. The activity was facilitated by the BLIS Interns from Cagayan State University–Carig Campus, under the guidance and supervision of Mrs. Jennelyn D. Asuncion and Mrs. Olivia L. Yadao.
