Upon discussing with my co-teacher regarding how I will respond to the completion
of this LDM2 Modules, I have gained optimistic spirit of enlightenment. Subjecting myself
to undergo through this process will not only benefit me a lot but it will also benefit my
learners under the new normal school setting. Wherein face-to-face learning is prohibited
because of the health risks brought about by Covid19. Learning must continue no matter
what the situation is. Learning is possible because there are other learning modalities that
can be used to make learning effective to happen in this time of pandemic.
ORGANIZING YOUR LEARNING ACTION CELL (LAC)
Activity 1
Begin by refreshing your memory on the Learning Action Cell. Read DepEd Order
No. 35 s. 2016 titled “The Learning Action Cell as the K to 12 Basic Education Program
School-Based Continuing Professional Development Strategy for the Improvement of
Teaching and Learning.”
Once you are done, answer the following questions. Write your responses and any
other ideas and reflections in your Study Notebook.

elaborate.
In my own opinion, the three challenges that ensure successful LAC are the
following:
2. Setting Up of Resources
Before the LAC session be scheduled before hand, the LAC leader
should ensure that all resources (human and material) are ready. Because
if not, success will not be possible if both human and material resources
are not complete nor ready.

(Most Essential Learning
Competencies)
ESSON 1
BACKGROUND, RATIONALE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF MELCS
ACTIVITY 1.
Answer the following reflective questions in your Study Notebook:
1. The closure of schools around the world due to the global pandemic posed serious
challenges on the delivery of quality basic education. As a teacher, what do you think are the
fundamental concerns in terms of curriculum standards that need to be addressed in order to
ensure learning continuity? Cite a specific example. Do you think these concerns could be
solved by teachers alone? Why or why not?
One of the major concerns that needs to be addressed in the proper dissemination
of content knowledge to the learners. Although the DepEd made a solution to this by
formulating MELC’s, there are still some issues needs to be resolved like the medium of
instruction. DepEd shows different alternative delivery modes but to me, this would not
work without the cooperation of everyone.
2. Even prior to the spread of COVID-19 that eventually led to the closure of schools
nationwide, the congested curriculum has been a perennial problem of teachers (Andaya,
2018). This is perceived to be one of the hindering factors on the poor performance of
Filipino learners. Do you agree with this observation? Why or why not?
I don’t think the curriculum is the problem. It is the implementation. The
curriculum had undergone different researches before it was implemented. Perhaps the
reason is that, the curriculum is slightly ideal.
ACTIVITY 2
Familiarize yourself with the course reading on the Development and Design of the MELCs.
After going through the document, provide a brief and concise response to the following
guide questions. Write your answers in your Study Notebook.
1. What are the general and specific purposes of the development of MELCs?
The general purpose of the MELC’s is to ensure quality, relevant and liberating
education by reviewing the competencies in K to 12 Curriculum. Before the pandemic,
there is already reviews done in the competencies and there are plans to compress learning
competencies. The specific purpose is to map the essential and desirable learning
competencies, Identify prerequisite knowledge and skills for essential learning
competencies and analyze interconnectedness of prerequisite knowledge and skills among
the learning competencies for each subject area.
2. How does curriculum review aid in the identification of essential learning competencies?
Mapping of the essential and desirable learning competencies within the
curriculum.
Identification of prerequisite knowledge and skills for essential learning
competencies.
Analysis of the interconnectedness of prerequisite knowledge and skills among the
learning competencies for each subject area.
3. What is the difference between essential learning competencies and desirable learning
competencies?
Essential learning competencies were defined as what the learners need, considered
indispensable, in the teaching learning process to build skills to equip learners for
subsequent grade levels and consequently, for lifelong learning. On the other hand,
desirable learning competencies were defined as what may enhance education but may not
be necessary in building foundational skills of learners.
4. How were the most essential learning competencies identified? What were the decisions
made in order to trim down the number of the essential learning competencies further?
It started in identification of essential and desirable learning competencies. Then,
essential learning competencies to most essential learning competencies. As a rule, a
learning competency is retained if it satisfies the endurance criterion which greatly
contributes to life-long learning and is a prerequisite skills to the next grade level. Two or
more learning competencies were merged or clustered if they have the same objective or
learning intention and can therefore be combined into one comprehensive learning
competency. However, learning competency are removed/dropped due to the following
reasons:
These are too specific and the articulation is similar to that of a learning objective.
These are deemed appropriate to be introduced in an earlier quarter or grade level
or moved to a later quarter or grade level.
These are recurring.
These are subsumed in another learning competency.
5. What is the importance of the MELCs in ensuring the delivery of quality instruction?
The creation of most essential learning competencies is a very long and
comprehensive process. It undergone different processes to ensure that learners will be
educated properly.
ACTIVITY 3
Prepare a copy of your learning area’s original K-12 Curriculum Guide and corresponding
list of MELCs.
Go to the sections of the curriculum guide and MELCs that are relevant to your instructional
needs. Copy and accomplish the following table in your Study Notebook and compare the
two documents to determine which learning competencies were retained, dropped, or merged.

ACTIVITY 4
In your LAC Session, discuss and share your answers to Activities 1-3 in this lesson. Discuss
any questions about the MELCs that need clarification as well. Share your thoughts and let
your co-teachers articulate their insights regarding your questions. Jot down all the insights
shared in the discussion, including your own, in your Study Notebook.
Insights:
MELC’s are a long term response to the call of SDG4. It is already been planned
even before the COVID-19 pandemic.
There is a big different between online learning and digital modular distance
learning.
Strong internet connection is a big problem in online learning.
MELC’s are comprehensively compresses.
LESSON 2
UNPACKING AND COMBINING MELCS INTO LEARNING
OBJECTIVES
ACTIVITY 1
Familiarize yourself with the course reading on Unpacking and Combining the MELCs. After
reading the document, provide a brief and concise response to the following guide questions
in your Study Notebook:
1. What is the importance of unpacking and combining the MELCs?
In order systematize learning activity and effectively address the varying needs of
learners and the challenges of instructional deliveries. It is also essential to prevent
redundancy that are visible to repetition of the lesson which does not show spiral
progression.
2. What considerations must be taken in unpacking and combining the MELCs? Explain
each.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills must be taken consideration. It is worth noting
that the identified MELC’s cater to higher order cognition demands. As such, lower
cognition demands may be considered first in creating learning objectives. This ensures
that prerequisite knowledge and skills that would enable the achievement of MELC’s and
eventually the content and performance standards are address.
Logical sequence of learning objectives – since the intention of unpacking the MELC’s is
to provide systematic learning experiences for learners. It is incumbent that the unpacked
learning objectives follow a logical sequence.
ACTIVITY 2
Discuss and jot down the synthesis of the presentations in your Study Notebook.
Unpacking and combining of MELC’s helps to minimize the consuming of time in
dealing with the competencies.

(Designing Instruction in the
Different LDMs)
MODULE 3A
LESSON 1: UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENT LDMs DESIGNING
ACTIVITY 1
Do a quick check of your knowledge of the four modalities prescribed in the
LCP—face- to-face (F2F) learning, DL, blended learning (BL), and
homeschooling. In your own words, define each modality. Write your own
definitions. When you are done, check Lesson 1, Activity 1 Answer Key 1 to
see how well you did.
Answers:
D. Home schooling refers to an alternative learning delivery mode (ADM) that provides
learners with access to formal education while staying in an out-of-school environment,
with parents, guardians, or tutors as authorized facilitators instead of classroom
teachers.
Answer:
Distance learning
Home schooling if done via distance learning
ACTIVITY 2
Note that when a vaccine is already available and F2F will be allowed by the
Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) and by the local government unit (LGU)
concerned, any of the DL modalities may be combined with F2F learning to
come up with a BL. Learn more about BL in the Supplementary Handout on
Blended Learning Delivery Modalities.
ACTIVITY 3
Consider the situation in your School/Division—your organizational
capabilities, your level of resources (infrastructure, financial, human), level of
experience in DL, health and safety status, context and capacities of your
learners and their households, etc.
Then rank the DL types—MDL, ODL, TVBI, RBI, and BL—from easiest to
most difficult to implement. Give the reasons for your ranking of each.

ACTIVITY 4
(Submit a copy of your Output to your LAC Leader)
The LCP assures that all possible measures will be taken to ensure that no child
will be excluded from learning during the COVID-19 crisis. Think about
groups of learners in your School/Division who might require special
consideration to be able to participate in DL. Describe what targeted
interventions you would develop to include them. Listed below are some
examples which may be relevant to your context. Add others as appropriate.
Write down your answers and share your ideas at your next LAC Session.
ACTIVITY 1
Read DO 42, s2016 on Policy Guidelines on Daily Lesson Preparation. As you
go through the document, write down your answers to the following questions:
1. What is Lesson Designing or Lesson Planning?
Answer:
Lesson designing or lesson planning is the process of determining what
learning opportunities students in school will have by planning “the content of
instruction, selecting teaching materials, designing the learning activities and
grouping methods, and deciding on the pacing and allocation of instructional time”
(Virginia Department of Education, as cited in DepEd Order No. 42, s. 2016). Well-
prepared and well-planned lessons are fundamental to ensuring the delivery of
quality teaching and learning in schools. In order for the design to be effective,
teachers need to consider the learners’ characteristics
and be responsive to the needs of the learners.
Refer to the list of learning tasks below, and identify which section of the
lesson these learning activities can be presented by placing each task under
the appropriate column.
1. Wrap up activities
2. Review previous lesson
3. Clarify concepts from previous lesson
4. State lesson objectives as guide for learners
5. Provide learners with feedback
6. Present connection between old and new lesson and establish
purpose for new lesson
7. Emphasize key information and concepts discussed
8. Assess whether lesson has been mastered
9. Check for learners’ understanding
10. Explain, model, demonstrate, and illustrate the concepts, ideas, skills,
or processes that students will eventually internalize
11. Help learners understand and master new information
12. Ask learners to recall key activities and concepts discussed
13. Reinforce what teacher has taught
14. Transfer ideas and concepts to new situations
15. Present warm-up activities to establish interest in new lesson
Check learner’s prior knowledge about the new lesson Compare your answers
to Lesson 2, Activity 2 Answer Key.
ACTIVITY 3
Lesson design does not end after implementing the lesson. After the delivery of
the lesson, teachers should take time to reflect on what worked well and why,
and what could have been done differently. Identifying successful and less
successful activities and strategies would make it easier to adjust and revise the
lesson plan as needed.
I. Objectives
II. Content
III. Learning Materials and Resources
IV. Procedures
V. Remarks
VI. Reflection
According to DepEd Order No. 42, s. 2016: The reflection part of the
DLL and DLP should be filled up after the lesson is delivered. Teachers are
encouraged to think about their lessons, particularly the parts that went well and the
parts that were weak and write about those briefly. In the reflection, teachers can
share their thoughts and feelings about their lessons including things about the lesson
that were successfully implemented and which ones need improvement or could be
adjusted in the future. Teachers can also take note of the number of learners who
earned 80% in the evaluation, the number of learners who require additional
activities for remediation, and the difficulties teachers encountered that their
principal or supervisor can help solve.
The learning tasks listed in Activity 2 all form part of the Lesson Procedures of
the DLL and DLP. To find out the instructional principles behind these learning
tasks, you may refer to the article Principles of Instruction by Barak Rosenshine
(https://www.aft.org/sites/default/files/ periodicals/Rosenshine.pdf).

Sample learning outputs obtained from different assessment methods may be
collected to build a learner’s portfolio. Read Guidelines on the Preparation of
Portfolio and e-Portfolio to find out how to construct and use it.
After reading the references, answer the following quiz to check your
understanding about using a portfolio to assess the learner.
Check out the Lesson 2, Activity 7 Answer Key to see how well you did.
Learners are different and have different abilities. For some topics, you can
give students some options or alternatives on how they will be assessed. Just
make sure that these would show how much they have learned.

the following when creating your WHLP:
• For grade levels where learning areas are taught by different teachers,
coordinate, plan, and discuss the WHLP with the learning area
teachers.
• Adjustments should be made on the timeframe for accomplishing the
learning tasks if there are any suspensions of classes due to calamities
(DepEd, 2020).
• Enjoyable learning activities scheduled on Saturdays such as
designing portfolios, should also be reflected in the WHLP.
• Be guided by the recommended screen time for learners set by the
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the World Health
Organization (WHO) which are as follows:
» Key Stage 1 (K to 3) – at most one hour daily for Kindergarten
and one hour to 1.5 hours for Grades 1 to 3
» Key Stage 2 (Grades 4 to 6) – up to two hours
» Key Stage 3 (Grade 7 to 10) – up to two hours for Grades 7 and 8
and up to four hours (two in the morning and the other two in the

(Learning Resources)
LESSON 1: LEARNING RESOURCE MAPS FOR DISTANCE
LEARNING
ACTIVITY 1
The DepEd Memorandum on Suggested Strategies in Implementing LDMs for SY 2020-
2021 included the Learning Resources (LR) Map as a guide in selecting the appropriate
Distance LDM to be implemented in Schools/Divisions. Study this map and answer the
following questions in your Study Notebook:
1. Based on the map, what resources should you have in order to implement the LDM
adopted by your School/Division?
Answer
Module, video clip, power point presentation, television and radio broadcasting are
the resources in distance learning. The school has to implement the chosen DL that will
deliver the modalities in teaching.
2. Do you have the complete resources for the Distance LDM needed in class? If the
LRs are not complete or not available, what steps will you take to make these available?
What are your options to substitute these missing LRs?
Answer
The distance LDM has not yet available but school and teachers take into options
in finding solutions on how to use the LR Portals and the use of DepEd Commons.
3. What support will you need to maximize the use of the two DepEd-sanctioned LR
Portals? From whom can you get this support?
Answer
The two DepEd-sanctioned portals such as LRMDS Portals and DepEd Commons
can be maximized if there is lack in LRs. Our District ICT Coordinator and School ICT
Coordinators are amenable in sharing their knowledge in using the portals.
4. Based on your evaluation of the materials, are they appropriate to the level and
characteristics of learners? Are there learners who might be disadvantaged by the materials
(based on reading ability, level of learning independence, level of household support,
distance)? What adjustments will you make in terms of the LRs?
Answer
The LRs are appropriate to the level of learners. The activities are suited to the
needs. Different exercises, drills and remediation were needed for supervised study.
ACTIVITY 2
In your LAC Session, share and discuss your answers from the previous activity. What
support can you provide to your colleagues and what support can you get from them in terms
of LRs? Take note of the insights that you can gather from your colleagues and write them in
your Study Notebook.
Answer
Be passionate about exploring new ideas, be open to improvement in the education
system and work harmoniously with colleagues.
LESSON 2
ACCESSING LEARNING RESOURCES FROM DepEd
PORTALS
ACTIVITY 1
Establish access to the following portals:
1. LRMDS Portal. Ensure that you have an LRMDS Portal Account. If you have not registered yet,
follow the LR Portal User Guide to guide you in your registration process. Alternatively, seek
assistance from any of your colleagues or your IT personnel in your school, district, or division. You
may also coordinate with your LAC Leader and/or Coach. To understand the portal better, you may
watch the LR Portal Video Tutorial located in the resources of this Course.
Answer
Teachers can download appropriate LRs from the LRDMS Portal and DepEd
Commons and used them as instructional materials in their classes.
2. DepEd Commons. Ensure that you have access to DepEd Commons. Refer to Memorandum on
DepEd Commons dated March 17, 2020.
Explore the Portals. In your Study Notebook, answer the following questions:
1. Given the LDM adopted in your School, how can the two DepEd portals respond to your
LR needs and those of your learners’? How do they complement the LRs that you already
have?
Answer
The big challenge in accessing the LRs in the portal is poor/slow internet
connectivity.
2. What are the challenges in accessing the LRs in the portals both for you and your learners?
How will you overcome these challenges?
Answer
The LR Portal and DepEd Commons are platforms that alternatively used as
additional activities which you can maximize the exercises in teaching, it provides you
easily to give other information and other exercises in teaching in the new normal.
3. What support will you need to be able to maximize the use of the LR Portals? From whom
can you get this support?
Answer
I can use the LR portals to share my experiences. I may use it in teaching to
incorporate lessons and improve activities to enhance the learners learning outcomes.
