This action research aims to shed light on the common difficulties encountered by some Foundation Program students at Bahrain Teachers College in acquiring reading and writing skills. It also suggests some remedial actions that could facilitate the process of acquiring such skills. Classroom observation and error analysis of the students written tasks were utilized. The findings of the study revealed that insufficient linguistic knowledge and lack of reading strategies are the most striking problems in reading, whereas, mechanics of writing and lack of organization and outlining of their ideas were among their weaknesses in paragraph writing. Some remedial activities were used and then evaluated which were found to be helpful. (Published Abstract)
