Project Title:

Firetrucks and Hose: An Interactive Mathematics Game for Grade 4 

Project Summary:

          The proponent noticed that the computational skills of grade pupils using the four fundamental operations are very low due to less contact with the learners the MPS on the first quarter was 71% percent which is very far from the national passing rate of 75%. This pandemic created more challenges among teachers and learners especially in teaching fundamental operations. 

With this situation, the proponent was alarmed and come up

with an interactive board game which learners can be enjoyed to play this time of pandemic. This game is came from the concept of snakes and ladders but the proponent uses the numbers and four fundamental operations. It also uses a die as addend, subtrahend, multiplicand, and dividend. In division, rounding off to whole number will be applied. The goal of the learner is to reach the burning house to rescue the people inside.

This project were conducted in Barangay Paitan-Panoypoy San Carlos City. The targeted beneficiaries were those who had difficulty in  four fundamental operations. The said project were done usually  every Mondays and Wednesdays with the duration of one and half hour. The set scheduled were in April 26, 2021- July9, 2021. It was  executed by visiting them three times a week. Accomplishment Report were  submitted to show proof of implementation and monitoring.

Impact:

 In line with the innovations designed, the pupils enjoyed the games and have interests in solving problem using the four fundamentals. Essentially, the sole purpose of the innovation addressed the gaps and existing difficulties of the learners citing the four fundamental operations by scaffolding them to learn effectively the concepts considering the techniques and strategies to solve the problem.The numeracy skills was developed also and hit the targeted outcome of the implementer. This means that the innovations must be used to develop the numeracy skills of the learners. It is observed that learners participation and cooperation are promoted underscoring their leadership and social skills.
