New Features of the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum

• Vertical continuum and horizontal articulation

of competencies

• Mother Tongue as a learning area and

medium of instruction

• Spiral progression in Science and Math

• MAPEH (Music, Arts, Physical Education, and

Health) begins in Grade 1


K to 12 will enhance literacy through multilingualism

• Mother tongue, Filipino, English and additional languages

education for upper year levels

• Mother tongue as starting point for literacy development

• Simultaneous development of language skills in listening &

speaking for both Filipino & English

• Competencies spiraled across grade levels, with greater

emphasis on reading comprehension of various writing, study &

thinking strategies in HS for critical thinking development

• Orthography, phonological guides, literacy program sequences,

common utterances for each language part of Teachers’ Guide

• Includes age-, context-, and culture-appropriate print &

electronic texts

K to 12 will strengthen Science and Math Education

• The use of spiral progression:

– Avoids disjunctions between stages of schooling

– Allows learners to learn topics & skills appropriate to their developmental/cognitive stages

– Strengthens retention & mastery of topics & skills as they are revisited & consolidated

• Science concepts & skills are integrated in Health, Languages, Math, and other subjects in Grades 1-2

• Focus on literacy & numeracy for K to Grade 2 provides stronger foundation to acquire more sophisticated competencies in latter grade levels
