I. INTRODUCTION:
Teachers play vital roles in the lives of the students in their classrooms. Teachers
are best known for the role of educating the students that are placed in their care. The
most common role a teacher plays in the classroom is to teach knowledge to children.
Teachers are given a curriculum they must follow that meets standards. This curriculum
is followed by the teacher so that throughout the year, all pertinent knowledge is
dispensed to the students.
To meet the needs of the students’ learning, teachers need a wide range of
methods to reach all students. Educators need to develop a wide variety of strategies to
respond to student needs. They need to plan, monitor, and respond to each student in
order to promote academic growth.

V. RESEARCH INSTRUMENT:
The teacher used the data gathered from the Excelandia Diagnostic and
Achievement Test presented last March, 2019.
It can be seen from the table above that there is a gradual change in the result of
Diagnostic and Achievement Test taken by the grade one students. It shows that the
solutions to address the problems are effective in nurturing every child’s need.
VI. PLAN OF ACTION
Based from the result of this study and observations of the teachers, here are
some of the ways on how to address the problems:
a. Allot more time/day to teach the lessons that the students find hard to
understand
b. Revise the flow of the lessons per quarter
c. Conduct an intervention in teaching every lesson
d. Provide activities that can awake the students level of interest for the lesson
From the solution mentioned above, it can help to improve student’s progress in
taking the Diagnostic and Achievement Test in English.

VII. ANALYSIS
This study would somehow help the teachers to evaluate students' level of
academic achievement and learning potential and can sometimes lead to additional
assessments if warranted by students' responses, to determine students' level of prior
knowledge. Using this study, it can help instructors plan differentiated instruction,
lesson plans, teaching strategies, and other classroom techniques to help all students in
the classroom achieve their academic potential. It is useful because it can tell them
where their students are with respect to what they are planning to teach them.
VIII. CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
A diagnostic/achievement test functions as a teacher diagnostic tool in the
following five ways:
1. It identifies the very weak students in a class
2. It identifies the strongest students in a class
3. It identifies topics which the students already know
4. It identifies topics which the students don't know
5. It identifies topics which the students have not learned
Here are some recommendations of the teacher for more effective teaching based
on the result of the diagnostic/achievement test of grade one students:
