ABSTRACT

Teaching materials is a common term used to describe the teacher’s resources to deliver instruction. This can support the students’ learning and increase students’ success. Ideally, the teaching materials were designed to the content in which such are to be used, in consonance with the students’ level and needs. Teaching materials come in many shape and sizes, but they all have in common the ability to support student learning.Teaching or instructional material plays a very important role in the teaching- learning process. It enhances the students’ memory level and makes the teaching – learning process interesting (4,6). Strategic Intervention Material, an instructional material for remediation purposes is one of the solutions employed by the Department of Education to enhance academic achievements of students performing low in the field of science and technology and mathematics (2). During this pandemic, where some of the pupils had a hard time understanding the lessons in the module, this material is very useful to help improve their performance while learning at home. Thus, this study was formulated to determine the effectiveness of Printed Strategic Intervention Materials (PSIM) to improve the performance of the Grade 6 pupils in Math. It was revealed in this study that there is a significant difference in the pre-test and post-test performances of the Grade 6 pupils in Math. Moreover, it was concluded that printed strategic intervention material is effective in improving the performance of the pupils in Math. The proposed improvement plan is recommended.
