Abstract
The Basic Education Core Curriculum B.E. 2551 (2008) focuses on developing the reading ability of students to communicate effectively with others. This research responds to the reading policy through the experimental research. The sample for this study consisted of 40 seventh-grade students from Sarakhampittayakhom School, using cluster random sampling during the second semester of the academic year 2023. The research tools for data collection were a lesson plan based on CIRC with graphic organizers, an English reading comprehension test, and a student satisfaction questionnaire. The statistics for data analysis included percentage, mean, standard deviation, and dependent samples t-test. The results indicated that the efficiency of CIRC with graphic organizers in developing English reading comprehension was 82.29/82.08 which met the 80/80 criteria. When pretest and posttest scores were compared, the posttest scores of English reading comprehension ability of the students was higher than the pretest with a statistical significance at a level of 0.05. Students’ satisfaction with the English reading comprehension learning activity with the CIRC with graphic organizers was at a high level ( = 4.46, SD = 0.29).
