Quantitative data were collected through tests, while qualitative data were obtained using appropriate research instruments. The pretest results indicated an average score of 45.37, whereas the posttest score increased to 73.89, representing an improvement of 28.52 points. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the application of the SAS method can assist fourth-grade students in enhancing their reading abilities.
