Introductory Message
Welcome to English Grade 5!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative

efforts of the Schools Division of Bacolod City and DepEd Regional
Office VI - Western Visayas through the Curriculum and Learning
Management Division (CLMD). This is developed to guide the
learning facilitators (teachers, parents and responsible adults) in
helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Basic
Education Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional

materials aimed to guide the learners in accomplishing activities at
their own pace and time using the contextualized resources in the
community. This will also assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong
learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and
employment.

For learning facilitator:

The English Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the

teaching-learning activities specified in each Most Essential Learning
Competency (MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter
between you and learner. This will be made available to the learners
with the references/links to ease the independent learning.

For the learner:

The English Activity Sheet is developed to help you

continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning
material provides you with meaningful and engaging activities for
independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and
understand the instructions then perform the activities and answer
the assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the
agreed schedule.
