of competencies
• Mother Tongue as a learning area and
medium of instruction
• Spiral progression in Science and Math
• MAPEH (Music, Arts, Physical Education, and
Health) begins in Grade 1
K to 12 will enhance literacy
through multilingualism
• Mother tongue, Filipino, English and additional languages
education for upper year levels
• Mother tongue as starting point for literacy development
• Simultaneous development of language skills in listening &
speaking for both Filipino & English
• Competencies spiraled across grade levels, with greater
emphasis on reading comprehension of various writing, study &
thinking strategies in HS for critical thinking development
• Orthography, phonological guides, literacy program sequences,
common utterances for each language part of Teachers’ Guide
• Includes age-, context-, and culture-appropriate print &
electronic texts

K to 12 will strengthen Science
and Math Education
• The use of spiral progression:
– Avoids disjunctions between stages of schooling
– Allows learners to learn topics & skills appropriate to
their developmental/cognitive stages
– Strengthens retention & mastery of topics & skills as
they are revisited & consolidated
• Science concepts & skills are integrated in
Health, Languages, Math, and other subjects in
Grades 1-2
