Developing reading comprehension in students has become an odyssey for teachers because even though reading comprehension is one of the most essential pillars to develop during the educational process, students have difficulties in understanding what they read, with little vocabulary, little interest in reading, and with difficulty in applying the levels of reading comprehension. Taking into account the demands of today's society, it was necessary to establish improvements for reading comprehension and to innovate the teaching methodology, thus pointing out guided reading. The objective of this work was to determine how guided reading improves reading comprehension in elementary school students. The research is correlational type with the use of the hypothetical deductive method starting from general premises to reach a particular conclusion, for the analysis of the data the statistical software SPSS was used, with the application of the chi-square statistical model to test hypotheses according to the relationship between variables, resulting in a value of 0.007 approving the alternative hypotheses. As a last point, it was determined that guided reading allows improving reading comprehension in students.
