Able to read and understand words and sentences are important for every student. Students who had mastered this skills should be able to follow the lessons in school with ease. Students from the remedial class who demonstrate difficulties in mastering reading skills need help to ensure that they are not left behind in class. The Scaffolding Literacy (ScafoLIT) module is specially designed to help remedial students in mastering the basic skills of reading words with open syllable patterns (CVCV, VCV, and CVCVCV), closed syllable patterns (CVC,VCVC and CVCVC) and simple sentences which are related to this words pattern. This paper will discuss about the theories and models used to design a conceptual framework for the ScafoLIT module. Vygotsky’s Sociocultural Theory, active learning theory, Top Down Reading Approach and ADDIE model are embedded in developing ScafoLIT module.
