2. These two goals are to be achieved through
the following:
• An organized and rigorous curriculum content
• A well-defined set of high-level skills and processes
• Desirable values and attitudes
• Appropriate tools
• Different context of Filipino learners
3. There are five content areas in the curriculum which was adapted from
the framework prepared by MATHTEP and SEI (2010)
1. Number and number sense as a strand include concepts of numbers, properties, operations,
estimation and their applications.
2. Measurement as a strand includes the use of numbers and measures to describe, understand, and
compare mathematical and concrete objects.
3. Geometry as a strand includes properties of two-and three dimensional figures and their relationships,
spatial visualization, reasoning and geometric modeling and profs.
4. Patterns and algebra as a strand studies patterns, relationships and changes among shapes and
quantities it includes the use of algebraic notations and symbols, equations and most importantly,
functions to represent and analyze relationships.
5. Probability and statistic as a strand is all about developing skills in collecting and organizing data using
charts, tables and graphs: understanding analyzing and interpreting data; dealing with uncertainly; and
making predictions about outcomes.
4. The specific skills and processes to be develop
are:
• Knowing and understanding
• Estimating, competing and solving
• Visualizing and modeling
• Representing and communicating
• Conjecturing , reasoning, proving and decision-making
• Applying and connecting
5. The values and attitudes which are to be
honed are:
• Accuracy
• Creativity
• Objectivity
• Perseverance
• Productivity
6. The tools necessary in teaching mathematics
include:
• Manipulative objects
• Measuring devices
• Calculators and computer
• Smart phones and tablet PCs
• Internet driven and digital tools
7. The Commonly used mother tongue words in
MATH
• COUNTING NUMBERS- usa, duha, tulo, upat, lima and many more.
• BUYING- sukli, bayad, etc.
• COMMUTE- plete
• LENGTH- katas-on
• WEIGHT- bug-at
• TIME- ala-una, alas dos, alas tres…
• SHAPE- circle or lingin, triangle or trayanggulo, square or kuwadrado,
rectangle or rektanggulo,
