Using a quantitative approach, the study employed a one-group pre-test and post-test design. In particular, the research concentrated on X3 as a trial class and X2 as an experimental class. A pre-test and post-test consisting of 40 multiple-choice questions assessed the students' reading comprehension skills, with an average score of 60.6% in pre-test. The students then took part in two treatment sessions using the REAP strategy to practise reading comprehension through folk tales, fables and legends. In the pre-test, showed a significant increase in the mean score to 76.2%, resulting in an overall gain of 15.6%. It was proven by the result of paired sample t-test, which showed that the value of two tails significance was (0.00) smaller than alpha (0.00<0.05), T-value which is 13.173 > T-table 2.045 and it means that null hypothesis is rejected and alternative hypothesis is accepted, indicating a significant improvement in students' reading comprehension after being taught with the REAP strategy. Inference was the most improved aspect, with a pre-test average of 137 rising to 187 in the post-test, an increase of 50 points or 21.85%. These results confirm the positive impact of the REAP strategy on improving students' reading comprehension and underline its potential to engage students and improve their learning outcomes.
