The aim of this study was to investigate the level of reading pedagogical knowledge among first three grades female teachers in Jordan, and determine whether there are statistically significant differences in their knowledge level attributed to variables of qualification, years of experience, and enrollment in the RAMP course. To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive method was followed. The study sample consisted of (295) first three grades female teachers from schools affiliated to the Directorate of Education in Jerash Governorate.
