The University of Northern Philippines Laboratory School uses two kinds of curriculum. The old curriculum of the Philippines is K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum for grades 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12. The new curriculum of the Philippines is the MATATAG Curriculum applied for K to 10, but now it is still in progress. For 2024 – 2025 MATATAG Curriculum is applied in kindergarten, grade 1, 4, and grade 7. In mathematics for grade 11, it is divided into two subjects, general mathematics and pre-calculus. In pre-calculus, they have to learn about analytic geometry, series and mathematical induction, and trigonometry. At my demo, I have to teach them about mathematical induction, both in summations and divisible.
The teaching plan in the Philippines is not so different from Indonesia's. My cooperating teacher suggested using a Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) with the 7E Model. The steps of the 7E Model are Elicit, Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate, and Extend.
In the DLP, each step is thoroughly detailed and divided into two parts: Teacher's Activities and Students' Activities. The goal is to make the lesson as ideal as possible, meaning that students can easily grasp the concepts being taught.
For my demo teaching, the topic is Mathematical Induction. To make it more engaging, I created a song with lyrics that outline the steps of mathematical induction. Additionally, I used PowerPoint to support my teaching.
I applied Discovery Learning as the teaching method, encouraging students to explore and solve problems on their own. This approach allows them to identify which areas they need to focus on and fosters deeper understanding.
