 Indigenous Peoples Education reverted Teachers and

students mind alike. It made a sudden twist but strengthened the vision and mission of the Deped.

As a teacher in a Kalanguya Community, it is a challenge for me on how to help implement this IPED Program. Nevertheless, I thought of a very simple way with the blessing of my School Head, Dr. Roger S. Sebastian.

Literature is life. This is true even with the Kalanguya People. It is explicitly reflected in their way of life or practices. Some of which, are the richness of their oral folk tales, fables, short stories, chants, riddles, songs and many more. They use these things to educate their children with the Natural Law (Likas na Batas Moral) as they instill in them the values they need to learn.

The thing is, these literary pieces are orally passed on and with the advent of extremely high technologies and so many concerns, many of which are already buried in the culture-bearers modern mind. 

Subsequently, Indigenous Peoples Education (IPEd) sparkled as a glimmer of hope because these becoming-extinct-rich-cultures could be possibly salvaged against forgetful minds, be restored and survive through ethno-researches and other means such as this. 

This material is developed mainly to preserve and enrich the Kalanguya literary pieces and to be

utilized in classroom instruction. For the writer personally believes that learning will easily take place when culture and curriculum merges.

BUNBUNTIYA (Kalanguya RIDDLES)Bunbuntiya or tattamma is a kalanguya term for riddles.
