THE FRAMEWORK
vii
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
Language is the basis of all communication and the primary instrument of thought. Thinking, learning, and language are interrelated. Language is
governed by rules and systems (language conventions) which are used to explore and communicate meaning. It defines culture which is essential in
understanding oneself (personal identity), forming interpersonal relationships (socialization), extending experiences, reflecting on thought and action, and
contributing to a better society. Language, therefore, is central to the peoples’ intellectual, social and emotional development and has an essential role in all key
learning areas1.
Language is the foundation of all human relationships. All human relationships are established on the ability of people to communicate effectively with
each other. Our thoughts, values and understandings are developed and expressed through language. This process allows students to understand better the
world in which they live and contributes to the development of their personal perspectives of the global community. People use language to make sense of
and bring order to their world. Therefore, proficiency in the language enables people to access, process and keep abreast of information, to engage with the
wider and more diverse communities, and to learn about the role of language in their own lives, and in their own and other cultures.
The K-12 Language Arts and Multiliteracies Curriculum is anchored on the following language acquisition, learning, teaching and assessing principles.
viii
All languages are interrelated and interdependent. Facility in the first language (L1) strengthens and supports the learning of other languages (L 2).
Acquisition of sets of skills and implicit metalinguistic knowledge in one language (common underlying proficiency or CUP) provides the base for the
development of both the first language (L1) and the second language (L2) 2. It follows that any expansion of CUP that takes place in one language will have a
beneficial effect on the other language(s). This principle serves to explain why it becomes easier and easier to learn additional languages.
Language acquisition and learning is an active process that begins at birth and continues throughout life. It is continuous and recursive
throughout students’ lives. Students enhance their language abilities by using what they know in new and more complex contexts and with increasing
sophistication (spiral progression). They reflect on and use prior knowledge to extend and enhance their language and understanding. By learning and
incorporating new language structures into their repertoire and using them in a variety of contexts, students develop language fluency and proficiency. Positive
learning experiences in language-rich environments enable students to leave school with a desire to continue to extend their knowledge, skills and interests.

Learning requires meaning . We learn when we use what we know to understand what is new. Start with what the students know; use that to introduce
new concepts. They use language to examine new experiences and knowledge in relation to their prior knowledge, experiences, and beliefs. They make
connections, anticipate possibilities, reflect upon ideas, and determine courses of action.
Learners learn about language and how to use it effectively through their engagement with and study of texts. The term ‘text’ refers to any form
of written (reading and writing), oral (listening and speaking) and visual communication involving language4. The texts through which students learn about
language are wide-ranging and varied, from brief conversations to lengthy and complex forms of writing. The study of specific texts is the means by which
learners achieve the desired outcomes of language, rather than an end in itself. Learners learn to create texts of their own and to engage with texts produced
by other people.
Successful language learning involves viewing, listening, speaking, reading and writing activities 5. Language learning should include a plethora of
strategies and activities that helps students focus on both MEANING and ACCURACY.
Language learning involves recognizing, accepting, valuing and building on students’ existing language competence, including the use of
non-standard forms of the language, and extending the range of language available to students. Through language learning, learners develop
functional and critical literacy skills. They learn to control and understand the conventions of the target language that are valued and rewarded by society and to
reflect on and critically analyze their own use of language and the language of others.

K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
The generation born after the year 1994 until 2004 is referred to as Generation Z. This is the first generation to be born with complete technology. They were
born with PCs, mobile phones, gaming devices, MP3 players and the ubiquitous Internet. They do not know life without technology. Hence, they are often
termed as digital natives and are extremely comfortable with technology. They can email, text and use computers without any problems. In addition, members
of Generation Z can understand and master advancement in technology. Unfortunately, this reliance on technology and gadgets has had a negative effect on
the members. They rather stay indoors and use their electronics than play outdoors and be active. They are leading a sedentary life that can result in health
problems later on.
For them, social media platforms are a way to communicate with the outside world. They are not bothered about privacy and are willing to share intimate
details about themselves with complete strangers. They have virtual friends and for them hanging out with friends means talking to them over the cell phones,
emails and text messages. However, at the same time, this generation is considered to be creative and collaborative and will have a significant impact on the
way companies work when they join the workforce.
Members of Generation Z are adept at multi-tasking. They can text, read, watch, talk and even eat simultaneously. However, this has also led to reduced
attention span leading to what psychologists call acquired attention deficit disorder. This generation is unable to analyze complex data and information as they
cannot focus for very long.
While we don’t know much about Gen Z yet... we know a lot about the environment they are growing up in. This highly diverse environment will make the
x
grade schools of the next generation the most diverse ever. Higher levels of technology will make significant inroads in academics allowing for customized
instruction, data mining of student histories to enable diagnostics and remediation or accelerated achievement opportunities.
Gen Z kids will grow up with a highly sophisticated media and computer environment and will be more Internet savvy and expert than their Gen Y forerunners.
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
IV. OUTCOMES
The ultimate goal of the Language Arts and Multiliteracies Curriculum is to produce graduates who apply the language conventions, principles, strategies and
skills in (1) interacting with others, (2) understanding and learning other content areas, and (3) fending for themselves in whatever field of endeavour they may
engage in.
1. Communicative Competence
Communicative Competence is a synthesis of knowledge of basic grammatical principles, knowledge of how language is used in social settings to perform
communicative functions, and how knowledge of utterances and communicative functions can be combined according to the principles of discourse.8
1. Grammatical/Linguistic Competence means the acquisition of phonological rules, morphological words, syntactic rules, semantic rules, and lexical items.
2. Sociolinguistic Competence refers to the learning of pragmatic aspect of various speech acts, namely, the cultural values, norms, and other socio-
xi
cultural conventions in social contexts. They are the context and topic of discourse, the participant’s social status, sex, age, and other factors which influence
styles and registers of speech. Since different situations call for different types of expressions as well as different beliefs, views, values, and attitudes, the
development of sociolinguistic competence is essential for communicative social action.
3. Discourse Competence is the knowledge of rules regarding the cohesion (grammatical links) and coherence (appropriate combination of communicative
actions) of various types of discourse (oral and written). Sociolinguistic rules of use and rules of discourse are crucial in interpreting utterances for social
meaning, particularly when the literal meaning of an utterance does not lead to the speaker’s intention easily.
4. Strategic Competence is to DO with the knowledge of verbal and non-verbal strategies to compensate for breakdown such as self-correction and at
the same time to enhance the effectiveness of communication such as recognizing discourse structure, activating background knowledge, contextual
guessing, and tolerating ambiguity.
2. Multiliteracies
Multiliteracies (multiliteracy practices) recognize that there are many kinds of literacy at work within our society. These include traditional literacy practices using
texts as well as new literacy practices using texts of popular culture such as films. Social literacy encompasses how we communicate and exchange meaning in
our society while professional literacy links with the notion of literacy for school or the workplace.

K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
The curriculum aims to help learners acquire highly-developed literacy skills that enable them to understand that English language is the most widely used
medium of communication in Trade and the Arts, Sciences, Mathematics, and in world economy. Furthermore, the curriculum aims to help learners understand
that English language is a dynamic social process which responds to and reflects changing social conditions, and that English is inextricably involved with values,
beliefs, and ways of thinking about ourselves and the world we dwell in. Through multiliteracy skills, learners will be able to appreciate and be sensitive to
sociocultural diversity and understand that the meaning of any form of communication depends on context, purpose, and audience.
The world is now in the “Knowledge age” where the challenge of education is to prepare learners to deal with the challenges of the changing world. Students in this age
must be prepared to compete in a global economy, understand and operate complex communication and information systems, and apply higher level thinking skills to make
decisions and solve problems.
The Language Arts and Multiliteracies Curriculum (LAMC) addresses these needs. This is the rationale why Mother Tongue, Filipino, and English follow a unified framework
which allows easy transition from acquiring and learning one language to another.
The curriculum has five (5) components. Each component is essential to the learners’ ability to communicate effectively in a language leading them to achieve communicative
competence and multiliteracies in the Mother Tongue, Filipino and English. The diagram on page 2 shows that the heart and core of LAMC is making meaning through
language and aims to develop graduates who are communicatively competent and multiliterates.
xii
Component 1 illustrates learning processes that will effect acquisition and learning of the language. It explains the HOW of language learning and therefore serves as
guiding principles for language teaching.
Component 2 describes knowledge and skill areas which are essential to effective language use (understanding of cultures, understanding language, processes and
strategies) which will be developed through language arts (macro-skills).
Component 3 shows the interdependence and interrelationships of the macro-skills of the language (listening, speaking and viewing; reading, viewing and responding;
writing and representing) and the development of thinking skills (critical thinking, creative thinking, and metacognition) allowing students to make meaning through
language.
Component 4 explains the holistic assessment of the Language Arts and Literacy Curriculum which serves as feedback of its effectiveness to students, teachers, school
administrators, and curriculum developers.
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
For effective language acquisition and learning to take place, language teachers must be guided by the six (6) language teaching principles. These principles explain the
natural process of language development.
1. Spiral Progression
Skills, grammatical items, structures and various types of texts will be taught, revised and revisited at increasing levels of difficulty and sophistication. This will allow
students to progress from the foundational level to higher levels of language use.
2. Interaction
Language learning will be situated in the context of communication (oral and written). Activities that simulate real-life situations of varying language demands (purposes,
topics, and audiences) will be employed to help students interact with others thereby improve their socialization skills.
3. Integration
The areas of language learning – the receptive skills, the productive skills, and grammar and vocabulary will be taught in an integrated way, together with the use of
xiii
relevant print and non-print resources, to provide multiple perspectives and meaningful connections. Integration may come in different types either implicitly or explicitly
(skills, content, theme, topic, and values integration).
4. Learner-Centeredness
Learners are at the center of the teaching-learning process. Teaching will be differentiated according to students’ needs, abilities and interests. Effective pedagogies will
be used to engage them and to strengthen their language development.
5. Contextualization
Learning tasks and activities will be designed for learners to acquire the language in authentic and meaningful contexts of use. For example, lessons will be planned
around learning outcomes, a theme, or a type of text to help learners use related language skills, grammatical items/structures and vocabulary appropriately in spoken
and written language to suit the purpose, audience, context, and culture. Learning points will be reinforced through explicit instruction and related follow-up practice.
6. Construction
Making meaning is the heart of language learning and use. Learning tasks and activities will be designed for learners in such a way that they will have time to reflect on
and respond to ideas and information. Learners will be provided with sufficient scaffolding so that they will be able to reach their full cognitive, affective, and
psychomotor potentials and become independent learners who are good consumers and constructors of meaning.
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
There are three major applications of the macro-skills of the language (Understanding of Cultures; Understanding Language; and Processes and Strategies). They are
described as the knowledge and skill areas which are essential to effective language use demonstrated through the language macro-skills.
1. UNDERSTANDING CULTURES. Learning language through text types and literary appreciation exposes learners to different cultures of the world,
including one’s culture Learners develop sociolinguistic and sociocultural understandings and apply them to their use of the language (Mother Tongue, Filipino, and
English). Sociolinguistic understanding refers to appropriate language use. It is defined in this document as taking into account the social significance of linguistic forms
and the linguistic implications of social facts. Language is a complex social practice that reflects and reinforces shared understandings about appropriate actions, values,
beliefs and attitudes within a community. These shared understandings determine not only what is communicated and when and how it is communicated, but also who
does the communicating. These collectively constitute the sociolinguistic features of language.
Sociocultural understanding refers to knowing about the language speaking communities. It means taking into account the non-linguistic features in the life of a society.
Learners broaden their frame of reference beyond their own social and cultural experiences. They gain insights into different values and belief systems and acknowledge
the cultural contexts which underpin them. They make sense of the social fabric of the target language community. They understand that the natural and physical
xiv
environments – as well as the social, economic, historical, and political environments – influence the language speaking groups and their cultural traditions.
2. UNDERSTANDING LANGUAGE. Learners apply their knowledge of the system of the language to assist them to make meaning and to create meaning. They come to
recognize the patterns and rules of the language which emerge as they interact with a plethora of texts (literary and informational) to make meaning. They apply this
knowledge and understanding to create their own spoken, written, and visual texts. Differences in language systems are expressed in a variety of ways: for example, in
grammatical differentiations, variations in word order, word selection, or general stylistic variations in texts. By comparing the system of the language with the systems of
other languages, students understand that each language is different, but has identifiable patterns within its own system.
3. PROCESS AND STRATEGIES. Learners select from a repertoire of processes and strategies by reflecting on their understanding of the way language works for a
variety of purposes in a range of contexts. They deliberate on how they use language and apply different language strategies, depending on their purpose, context and
audience. They use language as a way of coming to grips with new ideas, resolving difficulties or solving problems. They use strategies such as brainstorming and
discussion as a way of developing ideas. They experiment, take risks and make approximations with language as a way of developing their language skills. They clarify
what they need to know when seeking information for particular purposes. They use key-word searches and their understanding of the conventions of informational texts
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
such as tables of contents, headings, indexes, forewords, and glossaries as aids in locating information. They assess the usefulness of information for particular purposes.
They treat information and ideas critically and evaluate information in terms of its reliability and currency. They make notes and graphic representations of information
and combine information from different sources into a coherent whole by summarizing, comparing and synthesizing.
Learners reflect on ethical considerations in the use of ideas and information. They recognize the importance of attributing sources of ideas and information, and of
presenting or representing ideas and information in ways which are not misleading. They use quotation and sourcing conventions appropriately. They take into account
the possible effects of and responses to the presentation of ideas and information.
Language is the major instrument in communication (oral and written) and the heart of which is the exchange of meaning. Language learning should focus on guiding
students make meaning through language for different purposes on a range of topics and with a variety of audiences. Students must be able to adapt to various situations
where communication demands greatly vary.
xv
The skills, grammatical items, structures and various types of texts will be taught, and revisited at increasing levels of difficulty and sophistication. This design allows students
to progress from the foundational level to higher levels of language use.
The Language Arts and Multiliteracies Curriculum (LAMC) is composed of five (5) intricately intertwined and integrated sub-strands (listening, speaking, reading, writing, and
viewing) that serve as building blocks for understanding and creation of meaning and for effective communication across curricula (Matrix 1).
The revised curriculum re-organizes the Integrated Language Arts Curriculum according to the content standards that must be met by all students at the end of basic education.
This is not inconsistent with the proposed 5 sub-strands of the Language Arts and Multiliteracies Curriculum (LAMC) but fleshes out the areas that children need to learn and that
teachers need to teach in greater detail. Below is the matrix that presents the spread and alignment of the language and literacy domains with the 5 sub-strands.

K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
1. The K-12 languages curriculum ensures that processes and products of learning actively foster and contribute to the achievement of the basic education program
goals.
2. Competencies are spiraled across the curriculum and year levels. Upper level courses will focus on writing, comprehension and study strategies.
3. Content includes print and electronic texts that are age, context and culture appropriate.
Assessment is an important aspect of learning and teaching. It should be effectively used to support the holistic development of our pupils. Our assessment practices should
go beyond summative evaluation and move towards a more holistic approach.
Holistic assessment refers to the ongoing gathering of information on different facets of a child from various sources, with the aim of providing qualitative and quantitative
feedback to support and guide the child's development. Holistic assessment informs our teachers of their teaching practices and guides them in the design and delivery of
student learning. It will also enable parents to support their children's development and growth.
xviii
Characteristics of Assessment
Assessment procedures should be based on activities that have authentic communicative function rather than ones with little or no intrinsic communicative value.
These activities are based on actual performance in authentic situations which the learner is likely to encounter in his or her daily life.
Assessment procedures are based on the notion that the interrelationships among the various aspects of language, such as phonology, grammar, and vocabulary,
among others cannot be ignored. Also the four skills of language-listening, speaking, reading, and writing-are seen to be parts of a structurally integrated whole.
Assessment approaches should be used for communication and self-expression. Assessment also takes into account the whole learner and his or her social,
academic, and physical context.
K to 12 BASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUM
Assessment attempts to capture the learner’s total array of skills and abilities. It measures language proficiency in the context of specific subject matter. Assessment
procedures are based on the idea that various aspects of a learner’s life, both academic and personal, are integral to the development of language proficiency and
cannot be ignored. These dimensions include not only processes such as acquiring and integrating knowledge, extending and refining knowledge, and using
knowledge meaningfully, but also issues such as varying student attitudes towards learning.
4. Developmental appropriateness
Assessment procedures set expectations that are appropriate within the cognitive, social, and academic development of the learner. This characteristic of
assessment makes it particularly valuable for second language learners who come from culturally diverse backgrounds and who may have atypical educational
experiences.
5. Multiple referencing
Assessment entails obtaining information about the learner from numerous sources and through various means.
xix
For students, assessment should allow them to see their own accomplishments in terms that they understand and, consequently, allows them to assume responsibility for
their learning. Assessment should allow parents to share in the educational process, and offers them a clear insight into what their children are doing in school. For teachers,
the primary advantage of assessment is that it provides data on their students and their classroom for educational decision-making. In addition, it reports the success of the
curriculum and provides teachers with a framework for organizing student’s works.

6. Ask the class to describe an

4. What remains unchanged is the
author’s undying love for Laura.

c. He has lost his will to live which
is revealed in the expression
“the beasts prowl on the

d. The three poems refer to
Laura.
e. Allow for varied answers.
154
Teacher’s Note: Petrarch’s poetry often
uses allegory, an extended metaphor in
which the lover’s experience is described
in terms of something else. An elaborate
allegory occurs in “The White Doe,” though
the final line of “Spring” also compares
the poet’s inner state to a landscape.
Petrarch’s most used figure of speech,
however, is the oxymoron – two words
that form a logical contradiction and often
express conflicting feelings. For example:
sweet despair, suavely merciless.
2. Provide other examples of
allegory and oxymoron to the
class before letting them give Whole Class
their own example.
3. Ask them the benefits one
can get from learning how to
use these figures of speech:
allegory and oxymoron.
4. Ask the class how the three
poems are called. Whole Class
5. Let the class give the
characteristics of a Petrarchan
sonnet before providing them
with information about it. (This
has to be pre-assigned so
that students come to class
with basic information about
Petrarchan sonnet.)
Here are some notes about Petrarchan
sonnet to supplement what the students Individual
will give.
The Petrarchan sonnet is a fourteen-
line poem divided by the rhymes into Group Work
two parts, an eight-line octave followed
by a six-line sestet. The octave has only
two rhyme-sounds and usually rhymes
abbaabba; the sestet has either two or
three rhyme-sounds combined in one of
many different patterns. This division into
two parts gives the sonnet’s meaning a
statement/response form; the octave
155
often takes a position that the sestet
contradicts or modifies or develops in a
different manner.
Petrarch did not invent the sonnet, but his
practice established it as the dominant
lyric form in the Renaissance.
Task 7. Sound the Sonnets
156
4. Discuss to the class the meaning
of octave in the sonnet White Doe
and the sestet in the same sonnet.
5. Let the students highlight the idea
behind the sudden changes in the
final line of the three sonnets.
6. Discuss the effect of the change in
the final line.
7. Let students share the insights
they have gained about Petrarchan
sonnet.
8. Wrap up the activity by allowing
the students to identify the rhyme
schemes of each sonnet.
157
Group 2 – Choose a song that best
describes the love that Petrarch
has for Laura.
Group 3 – Compare and contrast

• How do you think could this be
avoided?
Bias and discrimination should
not have a place in our society
anymore. All men are equal. No
race is superior over the other.
This can be avoided if we will all
treat each other as brothers and Pair Work
sisters. (Allow for other possible
answers.)
• Do these signages speak about
bias?
Yes. The first signage is biased
for white people while the second
signage is for the Germans.
• To what group of people is this
announcement most favorable?
This announcement is most
favorable to Germans.
• Do you approve of it? Why?
I don’t approve of any form of
bias. When we start a culture of
bias and discrimination we are
also starting a culture of hate
and division. This could in turn
lead to a separatist movement
or war.
3. Synthesize the answers from the
different groups by asking the
following questions:
• What helped you in answering
the task?
• Do you also have biases? What
are they?
• Have you experienced fighting
for something or defending
yourself against other people’s
biases? How did you react?
• Do you think it is right to have
biases? Why?
178
4. Accept varied answers from your
learners to give you an idea about
their knowledge and understanding
of the biases that surround them.
Current issues on the same topic
may be used to further increase
their awareness on it.

5. Highlight the common forms of bias
like: a strong point of view that may
or may not include criticism of other
perspectives; and strong, even

6. Draw out from the students the
importance of knowing how to
detect bias like in buying products,
making a decision and choices, or

10. Connect their responses to the next

183
Here are some points that you might find
helpful in validating your students’ views:
a. The Decameron is similar to
the Canterbury tales in using
the frame-tale to unify a series
of stories dealing with different
themes. Like the “Decameron”,
the “Canterbury Tales” is told by
different characters but instead
of a group of young boys and
girls, it was told by a group of
pilgrims.
b. Likewise it is similar to
the “Necklace” by Guy De
Maupassant since both stories
focus on a particular object or
image. Decameron’s “Federigo’s
Falcon” revolves around the
falcon while “The Necklace” story
centers around the necklace.
c. “Ibong Adarna”, a Filipino tale
has the adarna bird as the
central image of the story just like
“Federico’s Falcon”. The theme
magnanimity can also be found
in the bravery and selflessness
of the youngest son, Don Juan.
He could have given up when
his brothers failed to capture the
mysterious bird, but he persisted
and almost died in the process.
