DAY 1 – JULY 1, 2024


There had been a queue at the registry when I arrived because the seminar
call time was 8:00 a.m. Since the conference's speakers haven't shown up yet,
the MC conducted an interview with the teachers in attendance to find out how
knowledgeable they were about the MATATAG Curriculum. The guest speakers
came at nine in the morning, and they began by summarizing the events of the
PEAC INSET 2024 at CDO. They have talked about the importance of
understanding the MATATAG Curriculum, the reasons for its changes, the
variables that inspired those changes, and the impact that those changes would
have on the students.

Following lunch, the instructors were divided into groups according


to subjects and grade levels to have a thorough talk on the changes and how to
use the curriculum guide. To completely cover each topic, teachers were divided
into groups for the second day. Dr. Roberto Dechos Jr. was our lecturer, and he
did an outstanding job of clarifying each topic. In order to make it smoother for
teachers to combine topics into a single lesson, Dr. Dechos talked about how to
unpack the general learning competencoes and how to cluster topics together.

Additionally, how to design activities based on the curriculum guide's


learning competencies and how teachers may support their pupils in acquiring
21st century abilities were covered. The guest speakers requested a group photo
before leaving in order to answer any follow-up inquiries from the instructors
and for documentation purposes.

DAY 2 – JULY 2, 2024
On day two of training, Dr. Myra Ambalong taught us how to identify
competencies in learning that may be unpacked. This technique enables
teachers to construct a learning plan and more readily relate instructional
activities to students' everyday lives.
Dr. Ambalong provided us with curriculum guide samples that we
unpacked and clustered to address repetitive or similar topics, allowing us to
cover multiple lessons in a single class. She also instructed us on proper
classroom etiquette and introduced activities tailored to specific topics.
Before leaving, we had an opportunity to ask questions as well as a take
pictures as a class.

or coordinators should support their teachers during classes and effectively
perform during teacher observation sessions throughout the school year.
Before the program ended, certificates of participation were awarded to all
attending teachers and guest speakers who contributed their time and expertise
on the MATATAG Curriculum. Schools also took photos to commemorate their
involvement in the 2024 ICAPESS MATATAG CURRICULUM TRAINING.
