DESCRIPTION
English as a subject is concerned with developing competence in listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Listening is an information – processing act. It includes skills in auditory discrimination and cognitive comprehension. Speaking
includes skills in using the language expressions and grammatical structures correctly in oral communication. Reading is getting
meaning from the printed page. It includes skills for vocabulary development, levels of comprehension namely, literal, interpretative,
critical analysis and application, literary appreciation and study skills. Writing includes readiness skills, mechanics, guided writing,
functional, and creative writing.
Learning activities to develop competence in these phases of communication should be varied, meaningful and realistic. Science
and Health concepts may be used as content in English especially for Grades I and II, but not to the extent of neglecting the content in
the English books for the grade.
Grade III is considered the threshold in reading. Thus, at the end of the third grade, every child is expected to be a
functional/successful reader.

The Philippine Elementary Learning Competencies (PELC)
The PELC is a listing of expected outcomes in the four phases of Communication Arts, namely, listening, speaking, reading and
writing. The expected outcomes are stated in behavioral terms hierarchically arranged from the simplest to the most complex. The
expected outcomes (skills) for each component are in matrix form per grade level.
With this arrangement, teachers can easily pick out objectives from each phase in preparing his/her lessons to show integration
within learning areas. The teacher is free to decide whether to have the four components or only two or three components
integrated in a day’s lesson.
Here is a sample lesson plan showing the four components integrated in a day’s lesson for 100 minutes. Science concepts are
integrated in this lesson.
I. Objectives

Use of this/that with singular form of nouns (Speaking)
Give appropriate heading for a set of pictures/sentences (Reading)
Write words/phrases – copying from a model (Writing)
