Training Hours One and a half hour (Time: 01:00-02:30 PM)
Overview Deep sighs and disturbing yawns- these responses are often reflected
on students whenever they are learning topics under Araling
Panlipunan subject. Prior to the mentioned concern, this session plan
aims to help pre-service teachers master the approaches and methods
in teaching Araling Panlipunan in the Intermediate Grades. As
anchored on the K-12 curriculum, the following are the six approaches
utilized in teaching the said subject: Constructive, collaborative,
experiential and contextualized learning, thematic, conceptual and
integrative approach respectively (Corpuz and Salandalan, 2015). In
addition, in order to have a meaningful, active, value-based,
integrative and challenging discussion, incorporating specific methods
and techniques are highly recommended: Tri-question, moral dilemma
and lesson Indigenization (Corpuz and Salnadalan, 2015).
Furthermore, some of the following strategies that can be helpful to
meet lecture objectives are as follows: role playing, visualization and
imagination exercise, perspective taking, songs and poems (Legaspi,
2017). However, before learning the mentioned approaches and
methods, pre-service teachers must have a firm foundation in knowing
the difference between the following terms: approach, strategy and
technique respectively. Once these two steps are practiced in the
teaching-learning process, the primary aim stated in the K-12 DepEd
Araling Panlipunan curriculum guide (2016) which is to “… establish
developed and functionally literate Filipinos in human society ” will be
achieved.
Targets/ At the end of one-hour and a half session, the participants shall have:
Objectives 1. Differentiated the commonly misunderstood interrelated terms:
approach, strategy and technique respectively through set of
examples.
2. Familiarized oneself with the existing approaches and methods in
teaching Araling Panlipunan in the Intermediate Grades anchored on
the present curriculum- K to 12.
3. Appreciated the importance of exploring simultaneously learning
various strategies that will be helpful in the teaching-learning process.
4. Selected and justified the most appropriate approach, strategy and
technique based on given specific situations.
5. Formulated an action plan that is centered on the topic: “My
preparations to become a competent teacher teaching Araling
Panlipunan in 21st century learners”

2. For 3-5 minutes, presenters will show words that consist of
Approach, Strategy and Method but it is SCRAMBLED.
*Each word bears an equivalent of 1 point, a total of 3 points for the

sums up to 5 points.
TASK: (Think-Group- Share) Unscrambled these words by
identifying them through their meanings and later on share to the
