📄 Abstract
This study reports an action research on the use of photo-based writing strategy to develop narrative essay writing among selected grade seven students in Kapayapaan Integrated School in school year 2019 - 2020. The participants of the four-week study were students from two sections of seventh grade, comprised of 39 students each class. It also involved two grade seven teachers of the English subject. The control group was instructed with process-based approach to writing while the experimental group was taught with photo-based writing along with process-based approach. The class in the experimental group used photographs as writing prompts to generate thoughtful pieces of written work as part of process-based approach to determine whether this strategy led to better written output in the form of narrative writing. After four-weeks of instruction, a post-test was administered to both groups to measure the effect of the intervention process. The obtained results through descriptive statistics (Mean) indicated significant difference between the group that was taught with photo-based writing and process-based approach over the one that only received process-based approach. The researcher concludes that the intervention with Photo-based Writing, particularly of family portraits improved the overall growth of creative writing skills among the grade seven students.
