Lesson 1 -The Nature of EPP and TLE
EPP and/or TLE is a skill-based subject, therefore the teacher
must follow the principles of teaching in handling this subject.

* Teachers must engage pupils in an

experiential, contextualized and
authentic teaching-learning process.
* It is a subject in which pupils learn
best by doing.
The Nature of EPP and TLE 1
Edukasyong Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan (E.P.P.) covers the key
standards in:
Information and Communication Technology (I.C.T.)
Home Economics (H.E.)
Agriculture (AG) and
Industrial Arts (I.A.).

These areas provide important skills

that can arm against laziness and
ignorance.

 Edukasyong Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan equips pupils
with skills for lifelong learning. It is focus on the mastery
of skills and processes.
Without the right work values it is anemic and dangerous.
An effective E.P.P. lesson is one that is founded
on the cognitive, behavioral or psychomotor, and
affective dimensions of human development.
Therefore teaching E.P.P. means teaching facts,
concepts, skills and values in their entirety.
