What we do

5. #WECULTURE
ABC+ only exists WITH and FOR DepEd. We are partners in
helping children read better in their foundational years.
#ROOTEDINCONTEXT
The goal of ABC+ is to identify and fill in gaps, as we
complement what is already being done at DepEd Central,
Regional, and Division levels.
#INVESTINGEARLY
ABC+ believes that early grade literacy, numeracy, and socio-
emotional learning skills are crucial to the holistic development
and grade-readiness of learners.
#COLLABORATION
ABC+ believes that education is a shared responsibility
and supports collaboration among schools, homes, and
communities.
#VALUEOFMOTHERTONGUE
ABC+ recognizes that children learn better through the
language they speak at home and advocates for MTB-
MLE..

ensure a standardized, accurate, and authentic measure of
children’s reading levels. To maintain the integrity of BoSY
CRLA, we are requesting you NOT to share the BoSY CRLA
Package and Administration Video Explainer to your home
learning partners.
Please retrieve the learner sheets right after administration.

DISCLAIMER

32. CRLA Testimonial The CRLA made me look at assessment
differently. Since it is not graded, my
focus was on identifying the gaps in my
students’ learning so I can help them. It
is not about my performance as a
teacher. It is not about how intelligent
my students are. It is about what and
how else can they learn. There is less
pressure on my students and their
parents. I use the data for our remedial
program.
