This narrative report summarizes feedback from parents and teachers on the deployment of modular learning materials (GIYA) at Lower Tungawan Elementary School. Parents faced difficulties with modules due to language barriers and found some lessons too difficult to teach given their own education levels. Both parents and teachers noted problems with mathematics and science modules being too complex, and observed that some student work in the modules appeared to be written by parents instead of pupils. The school aims to address these issues to better support modular learning during the pandemic.

One of the biggest challenges that our school, Lower Tungawan
Elementary School, is facing today is managing the capacity to produce learning that meets all learners learning needs. The struggle to create and maintain effective learning despite the pandemic just to cater learners’ needs. The modular learning modality may have an advantage but it can also be daunting and extremely difficult to both the parents and teachers. Upon the first week of deployment of the modules and upon retrieval, parents and teachers have identified concerns, notions and sentiments which highly needs to be addressed, to wit: Modules language barrier problems faced by Kindergarten to Grade 3 parents. (This further entails that parents cannot fully understand the content of the modules due to language barrier since most if not all, the community widely speaks Chavacano and since the modules uses Sinugbuanong Bisaya as a medium of instruction. Parents find some lessons difficult to teach to their children because of their level of education. Parents usually complains about Mathematics and Science subjects for it being too difficult (since Science has many activities especially in the higher grades and Mathematics being a complex subject.) Teachers also observe that some content in the modules were written by parents, not by pupils.
