TOMLINSON'S MODEL OF INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS DEVELOPMENT

Description of participants' English grammar skills. This phase analyzed the grammar skill of

the Grade 8 students relating to modals by giving them pre test. The pretest is about modals; its

definition, function and its uses in a sentence. Learning competencies of the grade 8 students are

based on English 8 curriculum guide.

Exploration of Results- The result was 55% of the Grade 8 students know about modals while

45% of them do not have any knowledge about modals. In this case, modals must be taught in

Grade 8 students.

Contextual realization of materials- This phase ensured that the self learning kit will caught

the students’ interest. Since climate change is a current global issue today, the group used

“Environment” in Pre-test as context to expand the students’ knowledge and skills about modals

while learning the ways on how to be a responsible citizens.

The group also used Localization in Post test part to present the different ways of

Bulakeños in protecting the environment and to make sure that the students can relate to the

following activities.

Pedagogical realization of materials- This phase consider the different levels of intelligence of

Grade 8 students by ensuring that the directions were clear and easily to understand. The

activities were properly arranged from simple to complex to make sure that students will not be

frustrated or demotivated.

The group used “Multiple choice” in the pre-test to be considered as the easiest part.

Presenting that PART A is about the meanings of different modals and PART B. is supplying the

correct modals to complete each sentences.

For the Post-test, to be considered as the challenging part, the group used “Fill in the

blanks” for PART A and PART B to test the students’ skills and understanding about the correct

meaning and usage of modals. And for an optional group activity, to test the students’ critical

thinking skills and ability in constructing sentences using modals, the students will create their

own environmental pledge with their groupmates.

All of the compiled activities was exclusively made by the group and none of these is get

from internet (except to the meanings and usage of modals) to make sure that the learning

materials is anchored on the curriculum guide and will support the students’ needs and demands

based on their different learning style.

Production of Materials. This phase attended to the physical features of materials before it

print. The group ensures that the self-learning kit is free from typographical errors. The font style

use is Times New Roman with a font size of 12 and Double spacing- which is suggested by the

specialist. To lessen the dullness of the self learning kit, the group used the theme “nature” and

make sure that it jazz up to the whole materials.

Evaluation of Materials- This phase involves seeking specialist in making learning materials.

Mr. Mark Nathaniel G. Pascual, MAEd a professor in Polytechnic University of the Philippines

Santa Maria Bulacan Campus and specialist in Language learning and material development

gave his comments, suggestions and recommendations to enhance the developed materials.

Objectives, learning contents, usefulness, organization and presentation of activities is evaluated.

Mr. Pascual commented that the self- learning kit is 96% good and a little revise is needed by

dividing the Pre-test and Post test in two parts and revising the first and the last objectives. The

group revised the self- learning kit based on the specialist’s feedback.

Students' use of materials. This phase covers the dissemination of instructional materials for

students' use in class. However, this phase is not included in the research.
