ABSTRACT
Manipulatives are physical objects used to describe mathematical concepts, whether the object was
intended specifically for mathematics or not. Manipulatives in mathematics have become more
prevalent recently, especially with the influence of technology. These have been proven to increase
engagement and show positive feedback on students’ environmental perception. This paper aimed
to find out whether the use of manipulative materials virtually would improve the mathematical
performance of Grade I of Baclaran Elementary School Unit-1. The research conducted a pretest
and a posttest consisting of 30-items within a control and an experimental group. The mean of the
respondents of the post math test was 19.67% with a standard deviation of 4.88 and a t-test score
of -0.56. Data showed that 16 or 53.33% of the respondents were already above average descriptive
rating, 7 or 23.33% of them were on average descriptive rating, 4 or 13.33% were below average,
10 or 10.00% were already outstanding, and no more pupils having poor descriptive rating. Pupils
who were taught using these strategies performed well based on the result. Manipulative materials
are an effective method of teaching math, for it gives students an opportunity to deal with their
pace of learning.

Chapter I
INTRODUCTION
The use of mathematics goes way back in the early days and has become significant throughout
history. Early civilizations already had the concept of the use of mathematical tools to interpret
simple math, wherein the abacus is one of the most popular and common objects associated. Van
de Walle et al. (2013) defines a mathematical tool as “any object, picture, or drawing that represents
a concept or onto which the relationship for that concept can be imposed.” They have also
highlighted the existence of manipulatives as a physical object to describe mathematical concepts,
whether the object was intended specifically for mathematics or not. Manipulatives in mathematics
have become more prevalent recently, especially with the influence of technology. Early
contributors on the concept arose from notable figures like Maria Montessori, Jean Piaget, and
George Cuisenaire. Montessori have used “golden bead materials” (Laski et al., 2015), Piaget
identifies concrete and pictorial stages to children’s learning, and Cuisenaire invented the
Cuisenaire Rods, for developing concepts on fraction, ratio, and proportion.
The use of manipulatives is supported by Piaget's theoretical work. According to Piaget, students
go through four phases of intellectual growth (Cope, 2015; Duchesne & McMaugh, 2016). While
each stage has an age assigned to it, this might vary based on the individual. Piaget says that pupils
learn best through numerous representations and hands-on experiences with concrete materials at
the concrete operational stage (Kontas, 2016). As Cope (2015) points out, as students’ progress
from the concrete operations stage to the formal operations stage (12 years and up), their need for
concrete experiences "diminishes but never ceases." This suggests that manipulatives may be
useful in the lower secondary classroom when students are typically transitioning from the concrete
operations stage to the formal operations stage. Gardner's idea of multiple intelligences provides
theoretical support for the usage of manipulatives. According to this notion, students can perform
best or prefer learning from at least eight different areas of intelligence (Duchesne & McMaugh,
1
2016). Transmission mathematics, for example, allows auditory learners to get the most out of a
course. Manipulatives, on the other hand, incorporate elements of auditory, visual, tactile, and
kinesthetic learning, allowing a larger range of learning types to be reached (Kontas, 2016).
The Department of Education (DepEd) has embarked on a major plan to raise the overall quality
and to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of basic education through the K to 12 Basic
Education Program (K-12) as described in the Philippines Development Plan 2011-2016, the Basic
Education Sector Reform Agenda (BESRA) and as part of its commitment to achieve the
MDG/EFA goals. To meet the demands of the new curriculum and the increased enrollments in
urban, regional, and remote schools, DepEd has implemented a range of initiatives to bring
educational resources and services closer to learners nationally. The Learning Resources
Management and Development System (LRMDS) developed with the assistance of the Australian
Government (AusAID) under the STRIVE program is one initiative. AusAID continued to assist
the DepEd to implement the systems nationally by providing technical assistance to DepEd to
enhance the LRMDS system and to build capacity for a national rollout. The national rollout is
defined by the issuance of DepEd Order 76, s. 2011. The DepEd through the LRMDS is seeking
to exploit as best as possible ICT to increase the level of quality, relevance, reach and access to
education by all. The Department of Education encourages all teachers to develop learning
resources to utilize it in the teaching learning process. Learner’s engagement with learning material
results in a better academic performance. The development of learning resources also helps in
augmenting the shortage of textbooks as provided by the DepEd central office.
Aligned with this, the utilization of manipulatives within teaching can be a powerful medium to
improve academic performances of the students. Previous research has been conducted in relation
to the use of manipulatives in teaching. A study by Liggett (2017) showed that mathematical
manipulatives were effective in improving academic performance among Grade 2 students.
Students were divided into a control and a treatment group, wherein those who had manipulatives
had improved on their post-test as compared to those who did not have manipulatives. Although
manipulatives can be proven effective, some studies have concluded little indication of learning
2
with its use, along with uncomfortability and unfamiliarity to provided learning materials (Hurst
& Linsell, 2020). Manipulatives have also been proven to increase engagement and show positive
feedback on students’ environmental perception (Cockett & Kilgour, 2015). However, its use also
depends on the grade level and the topics covered. Overall, past research shows positive results in
relation to the effectiveness of manipulatives, thus, solidifying its importance.
Conceptual Framework
The herein study used the Input-Process-Output (IPO) to determine the effectiveness of
manipulative materials in Mathematics of Grade I pupils of Baclaran Elementary School Unit-1
with thirty (30) pupils enrolled for the school year 2021-2022.
The process will be held in the form of a questionnaire to be administered by the researcher. The
result of the process was to gather information and data necessary for the application of treatment.
Thus, the paradigm of the study shown below is the cycle that the researcher prepared and
established.

FIGURE I: PARADIGM OF THE STUDY
Input contains initial assumptions and possibilities before the conduction of the methodology. To
tackle poor performances on mathematics, the process stage highlights the solution that is
implemented to further increase and boost academic performance. Finally, output serves as a
reflection based on the respondents' scores on the proposed solution. Feedback will be necessary,
especially on the process, because of how the methodology can be changed for future research and
because of the wide range of variables that may affect academic performance in relation to
manipulative materials.

Statement of the Problem
This paper aimed to find out whether the use of manipulative materials virtually would improve
the mathematical performance of Grade I of Baclaran Elementary School Unit-1. Particularly, it
sought to answer the following queries:
1. What is the mathematical performance level of the respondents in the pre-test and post-test?
2. Is there a significant difference between the pre-test in math to the post-test in math after utilizing
manipulative materials virtually?
Hypotheses
There is a significant difference between the pre-test and the post-test in Math of Grade I Baclaran
Elementary School Unit-1 after using manipulative materials.
The Department of Education (DepEd) may benefit in this research through analysis on the
significant changes between pre-test and post-test scores of students. Thus, DepEd may consider
the use of this strategy to implement to different schools in achieving better academic performances
or may opt to use the paper as a basis on different variables that may have affected the results.
Schools, their administrators and teachers, may utilize manipulative materials as the main
medium or as a foundation to teaching strategies. In addition, the research findings may also serve
as the bases for administrators and teachers in designing a lesson that will enhance performance in
mathematics.
Parents could apply the same approach on teaching to their children, and both parents and
the students may be able to evaluate differences on their performance and attitude towards learning
with the provided approach.
Finally, this research can serve as an initial ground for future researchers who are interested
in the mechanics, effectivity, and feasibility of manipulative materials in academic learning. They
5
may also use the paper to further validate previous research on manipulative materials and compare
differences and notable variables affecting academic performance of students.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Design
research design is to establish a causal link between an independent and dependent variable. It was
created with the researcher's choice of experimental and control groups of respondents. The pre-
test and post-test scores were considered students’ achievement in math. Students were divided
into two groups: experimental and control. The pre-test was given to the respondents before the
implementation of the intervention, while the post-test was given after. Only the experimental
group has been given the manipulative materials after the pre-test. The researcher wrote every
noticeable detail or situation that would reflect how the relationships and interactions evolved in
This design was used by the researcher because the subjects of the study were an intact group of
the grade one pupils in regular Math class in a naturally assembled setting at Baclaran Elementary
School Unit-1, Parañaque City. This design also requires pretest and posttest which is perfect to
the chosen instruments of the researcher. This design method of research was also used by the
researcher since it is an approach to a basic research method that investigates the circumstances of
its existence. The design also aims to describe a population, situation, or phenomenon accurately
and systematically, where it uses a wide variety of research methods to investigate one or more
variables by observation and measurement as anchored by McCombes (2019). The design can
provide valid results for the ongoing study; hence, it was utilized. The prefix quasi means
7
but is not true experimental research. Although the independent variable is manipulated,
participants are not randomly assigned to conditions or orders of conditions (Cook S., 2015).
Because the independent variable is manipulated before the dependent variable is measured, quasi-
experimental research eliminates the directionality problem. However, because participants are not
randomly assigned, making it likely that there are other differences between conditions, quasi-
experimental research does not eliminate the problem of confounding variables. In terms of internal
validity, therefore, quasi-experiments are generally somewhere between correlational studies and
true experiments.
The pre-reading comprehension test was helpful in assessing student’s prior knowledge and testing
initial equivalence among groups. A post-reading comprehension test was administered to measure
treatment effects. In addition, the results of the pre-reading comprehension test and post-reading
Furthermore, this study employed statistical tests, percentage and mean, in the treatment of data.

The researcher used manipulative materials that could enhance the mathematical performance of
Grade I Baclaran Elementary School Unit-1 in Mathematics during the school year 2021-2022.
The researcher made use of instructional approaches which attempted to make the process of math
more enjoyable, more exciting, and more meaningful. It significantly improves mastery of key
concepts and vocabulary. It helps the pupils relax and reduce the stress, which many of the pupil’s
experience because of math anxiety. The materials were in the form of the different kinds of
The respondents of this study are the 30 heterogenous Grade I pupils who are enrolled for the
School Year 2021-2022. The study was conducted at Baclaran Elementary School Unit-1 in
Paranaque City. The researcher used a convenience sampling method to select the respondents.
The researcher employed a 30-item multiple choice pre-test and post-test math test. A pretest was
provided to students at the start of a course to determine their initial comprehension of the learning
goals' metrics, and a post-test was given shortly after the course ended to determine what the
students have learnt. This 30-item test questionnaire was given to the pupils to measure their math
performance. Each selection has check-up comprehension questions. The researcher used problems
in math to come-up with 30 items of pre-test and post-test research instruments. For the math
scoring guide, the researcher provided a scale in assessing the math performance level of
elementary students.
The test questions were checked and validated by the master teachers of the primary department
and the school head of Baclaran Elementary School. The pre-test and post-test were designed to
measure the academic achievement of grade one pupils or students. The pre-test and post-test both
consist of a 30-item test to determine the level of math achievement of the pupils. The subjects
took the test twice with the same content of the test, pretest, and posttest. This study only covered
one grading period (second grading) with a coverage of 8 weeks. Lessons tackled during the

Tools for Data Analysis
The researcher made use of the t-test. A t-test is a statistical test that is used to compare the means
of two groups. It is often used in hypothesis testing to determine whether a process or treatment
influences the population of interest, or whether two groups are different from one another.
where x1 and x2 are the means of the two groups being compared, s2 is the pooled standard error
of the two groups, and n1 and n2 are the number of observations in each of the groups.

This Chapter deals with the presentation, analysis, and interpretation of data:
Table 1 shows the reading comprehension level of the Grade I pupils in the pre-Mathematics test
prior to the implementation of the manipulative materials strategies. The data shown suggests that
7 or 23.33% of the respondents had poor descriptive rating, 15 or 50.00% of them were below
average descriptive rating and 8 or 26.67% of them were average descriptive ratings. The table
also shows that the mean of the 30 respondents in the Pretest was 10.43%. It implied that many of
the respondents had below average descriptive rating in the pre math test result and some had poor

a standard deviation of 4.88 and a t-test score of -0.56. It implied that many of the respondents in
the post math test were above average descriptive rating, followed by average, below average and

the respondents clearly revealed that there is a great increase of the mean scores of the respondents
to the post math test. As comparison to previous studies (Liggett, 2017), manipulatives are helpful
in learnings of students. Although Hurst & Lindsell (2020) have said there is little indication of its
benefits, our study proves its effectivity despite it being done virtually. Thus, other factors may
have affected the little learning assumed with manipulatives and may be because of the previously
Conclusion
The reading comprehension level of the Grade I pupils in the Post math test after the
implementation of the intervention are as follows: data shows that 16 or 53.33% of the respondents
were already in the above average descriptive rating, 7 or 23.33% of them were in the average
descriptive rating, 4 or 13.33% were in the below on average, 3 or 10.00% were already outstanding
and no more pupils had poor descriptive ratings. It also showed that the mean of the respondents
in the post math test was 19.67%. This implies that many of the respondents in the post math test
were above average descriptive rating, followed by average, below average and outstanding
descriptive rating. A significant difference was observed between the pretest and posttest results
in the use of manipulatives. The mean using the different reading strategies as an intervention result
in the post math test were increased. Pupils who were taught using these strategies performed well
