Abstract
Abstrak: Tujuan penelitian: (1) mendeskripsikan secara komprehensif kemampuan membaca pemahaman peserta didik SD di Provinsi Bengkulu terhadap wacana terstandar yang biasa digunakan PIRLS untuk tes kemampuan membaca, (2) mendeskripsikan secara komprehensif kemampuan membaca pemahaman siswa SD di Provinsi Bengkulu terhadap wacana yang disusun peneliti dengan materi berbasis pengetahuan lokal. Penelitian dilaksanakan di 6 Sekolah Dasar di Provinsi Bengkulu. Untuk memperoleh data, responden diuji dengan menggunakan dua tes kemampuan membaca, terstandar PIRLS dan tidak terstandar atau dikembangkan sendiri oleh penulis. Laporan dari dua penelitian tersebut menyatakan bahwa kemampuan siswa SD Bengkulu tergolong rendah. Rata-rata kemampuan membaca pemahaman hanya sekitar 30%. Hasil tes yang disusun penulis juga memperlihatkan bahwa kemampuan membaca pemahaman siswa hanya sekitar 30% saja. Lebih rendahnya kemampuan membaca berdasarkan hasil tes terstandar oleh karena bahannya lebih panjang daripada tes disusun peneliti. Bacaan yang biasa digunakan untuk siswa dalam pembelajaran 200-250 kata dengan tingkat bacaan berkategori mudah sampai dengan sedang.
