This study aims to establish the significance of the influence of metacognitive awareness to the attitude towards communicative approach of Junior High School students. In order to do so, this study employed the quantitative research design using the descriptive and correlational method. Using proportionate stratified random sampling, primary data were gathered through the distribution of printed survey questionnaires inserted along with their English Modules as part of the Printed Modular-Based Learning Modality given to 369 respondents from 18 Secondary Public Schools of Division of Davao del Sur. In addressing the hypotheses of the study, correlation analysis using Pearson product moment correlation and regression analysis using Sobel z test were used. The level of metacognitive awareness as perceived by Junior High School students is high while the attitude towards communicative approach was defined as moderate. Results also revealed metacognitive awareness to have significant relationship to attitude towards communicative approach among Junior High School students. This implies that level of metacognitive awareness associates to the nature of attitude towards communicative approach. Moreover, regulation of cognition is the domain that best influences the attitude towards communicative approach among Junior High School students.
