ABSTRACTION
INTERACTIVE LECTURE: PPT. SLIDE NOS. 9-18
SAY: 45 min.
To further illuminate the concepts of
modules 1 and 2, let us elaborate
some key terminologies.
ACROSS CURRICULUM TEACHING
AREAS. Making meaningful
connections and including appropriate
interdisciplinary topics and learning
competencies cited in the curriculum
guide of other learning areas in any
grade level.

LITERACY. This refers to the capability

one acquires in order to read,
understand, and construct textual
material. This ability is useful in regular
academic and non-academic situations
and contexts within the school
community and in different
occupational areas. Literacy is not
confined to merely learning to read and
write; it also encompasses a range of
more complex skills including the ability
to apprehend ideas and concepts.

NUMERACY. This refers to the ability

to understand and use mathematical
knowledge for calculating, problem
solving, and interpreting information in
order to arrive at educated and well-
informed decisions. Numeracy is an
important skill for learners to master to
help them prepare for life beyond the
school and within the workplace and
greater community.
TEACHING STRATEGIES. These
refer to techniques, practices,
approaches, and systems teachers
employ in their classroom practice to
advance student learning

LEARNER ACHIEVEMENT. This

refers to the realization by a learner of
academic material or content
knowledge within a given period. Within
a given period, teachers have a certain
amount of academic material they need
to teach and learners need to learn.
Learner achievement increases when
teachers provide quality teaching
aligned with set standards.
