Abstract

The aim of the study was to examine the impact of the constructivist teaching Model on the reading skills of third-grade children in the Galileel region. The study use quasi-experimental approach. The study sample consisted of all third-grade students from Hussein Yassin Primary School in the Galilee region, with a total of (39) female and male, who were divided into two groups: the control group (20) students and the experimental group (39) student. The study's findings revealed statistically significant differences in the performance of the study group. As a result of the constructivist learning strategy's effectiveness in improving reading comprehension, the results favored the constructivist learning model (experimental group). The researcher suggests that Arabic language curricula include applied models and lessons based on constructivist theory strategies, particularly constructivist teaching; it also indicates that Arabic language teachers benefit from it in their teaching and that field studies be conducted to reveal the preferred constructivist learning environments, particularly for students at all academic levels.
