C. Discussion
 What is taught curriculum?
 - The “taught curriculum” is defined as that which teachers actually
teach day-by-day (Glatthorn, 2000). So, the curriculum that is
delivered by the teachers to the students is termed as Taught
Curriculum. 
- Also defined as the ‘curriculum in action’ or the ‘taught curriculum’.
This is about the implementation of the written curriculum. The actual
teaching and learning activities take place in schools through
interaction between learners and teachers as well as among learners
(e.g. how the intended curriculum is translated into practice and
actually delivered).
- Taught curriculum varies according to the learning styles of students
and teaching styles of teachers
 What is supported curriculum?
- This is described as support materials that the teacher needs to make
learning and teaching meaningful.
Examples:
print materials like books, charts, posters, worksheets, or non-print
materials like Power Point presentation, movies, slides, models, realia
mock-ups and other electronic illustrations.
- Supported curriculum also includes facilities where learning occurs
outside or inside the four-walled building. These are the places where
authentic learning through direct experiences occurs.
Examples: playground, science, laboratory, audio-visual rooms, zoo,
museum, market, or the plaza.
