ABSTRACT

One of the most effective tools improvised by teachers in addressing learners’ needs in mastering concepts in various subjects during distance learning is the Self-Learning Kit (SLK). The SLK is a tool that enhances learning and develops creativity through manipulative processes and thinking skills. It also relates the lesson to the real world and develops selfconfidence in the students’ subject (2). The researcher adopted the SLK in Mathematics lessons. With this, she assessed the extent of implementation of the said learning material. It was revealed in this study that among the Grade III pupils enrolled in the current school year, there are more females than males. Most of these pupils chose the modular distance learning modality. It was also revealed that the extent of the implementation of Self-Learning Kit (SLK) in Math had an outstanding rating taking into consideration the indicators included in this study like teacher’s training on process and format of the SLK, quality assurance, pre-implementation, implementation and post-implementation, evaluation and monitoring. During the implementation of SLK, teachers encountered challenges. Moreover, the challenge on lack of education among parents rank first. Based on the result, SLK is suited to use supplementary learning materials to understand the concept and attain the learning objective. It is recommended to adopt the implementation plan crafted based on the findings of this study.
