The research is meant to improve reading skills of young learners in three stages (Contextualization, what we need for reading a comic, and Using the tools given). Therefore, the Task-based approach is necessary to have a proper knowledge development. Through the Task-based approach, English structure awareness and active reading activities, students will develop their reading consciousness which will improve their performance in reading-related tasks. Consequently, students are supposed to read a comic at different stages to acquire reading awareness while studying aspects of language like grammar, vocabulary and sentences structure through reading a comic.application/pdfenghttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Enfoque basado en deberesHabilidades lectorasHabitos lectoresNarrativas gráficasGraphic narratives: a tool for fostering reading skills in a fifth-grade classroom.Graphic narrativeReading habitsReading skillsTask - Based approachinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2instname:Universidad Pedagógica Nacionalreponame: Repositorio Institucional UPNrepourl: http://repositorio.pedagogica.edu.co/Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International
