Topic: Enhancement Training Focus on Least Learned Competencies and How to Use
Mathematics Equipment/Tool Issued by the DepEd Central Office

Insights or Realizations (Insights or realizations gained from the facilitator, mentor, or

coach regarding new concepts learned and known concepts that were more
understood)

A. A totally new concept

There are specialized tools available for each mathematics lesson, tailored to
the grade level, to facilitate effective learning of new concepts.

B. A familiar concept but learned something new

By customizing and creating structured math activity sheets, common
mathematics equipment can be adapted for use in various math lessons.

Lessons Learned (personal experiences of how the strategy) or not in his/her class)

A. Easy points (what was easy to learn or apply to learners and why)
Utilizing Place Value Blocks or Based Ten Blocks and Place Value charts is the
most effective approach to teaching Place Value, as it helps children visualize and
comprehend the concept more easily.

B. Challenging points (what difficult to learn or apply to learners and why)

While Cuisenaire rods are valuable tools for understanding LCM, GCF, and
other abstract math concepts, their usage can be challenging due to its time-
consuming nature and the requirement for an ample supply of Cuisenaire sets to
ensure all learners have the opportunity to manipulate and utilize the rods effectively.

Next Course of Action (what to do next to address challenges encountered)

Consistently participating in training sessions to enhance teaching skills in

mathematics and creating localized learning activity sheets are essential for effectively
implementing educational activities.
