It is an approach which gives and exposes children to an opportunity to solve and understand scientific problems independently or with peers, guided with systematic steps.
In using this approach, the teacher should start by presenting science-related problems. With this, children will think of possible solutions to the problem based on their prior knowledge. The problem is known as a hypothesis that is defined as an educated guess.
To find solution to their hypothesis, children should engaged in self-study, mutual discussions, and practical works.
Program based learning
In this type of activity, children are exposed to different places outside the classroom for them to experiences and learn an intended concept in the most realistic manner.
Field trip
Types of field trip
Formal field trip
Informal field trip
Non school related field trip
This is less structured and offers children some control and choice concerning their activities or
the environment. The focus may be individualized, less atmosphere of competition, the interaction is unforced, and social interaction is
Informal field trip
This is somehow related to the informal field trip. It is a family activity that also contributes significantly to children’s learning.
Non school related field trip
This type of field trip is well-planed and organized. The experience one pupil is the same as
the other children who are enjoining the trip.
Formal field trip
It is an instructional strategy that enables small groups of children to work together on a common assignment.
It plays an important role in the growth of various domains. Children who are working together become active participants in learning that lead to the development of problemsolving skills, critical and creative thinking skills, and most importantly develop social skills.

It is a diagram that shows the relationships of one
concept to other concepts or between concepts.
Concept map
It is anchored on the principles of constructivism, and has regard to a process of personal discovery by the learners.
The process involves children in their learning by generating relevant questions, finding appropriate ways to investigate and answer questions using critical thinking skills, and then building a new understanding, meaning and knowledge.
Inquiry-based Leaming
This strategy is used to show objects to the group of young children and to communicate ideas with the aid of visuals, such as slide presentations, posters, flip charts, and others.
The use of demonstration involves teaching children to do a task in a systematic and stepby-step process.

Remedial stage of Exhibitions
This stage focuses on the preparation, designing and development of the venue.
Design Stage of Exhibitions
– This stage involves the placement of materials according to the approve designs.
Construction of Installation Stage of Exhibition
The science teacher will select the theme and identify the target audience, venue, materials, and other matters needed to be considered
Planning Stage of Exhibition
It involves students being challenged to collaboratively solve real-world math problems which they have not yet previously encountered.
It is student-centered and promotes critical and creative thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and communication skills.
Not all word problems develop problem-solving skills. a good use of the problem-solving strategy involves a realistic problem, ample time for students to think about the problem, and a venue to engage students in mathematical discourse.
Problem solving in Math
It is sometimes called Discovery Learning. It is based on the principle of induction.
Inductions means to derive a concept by showing that if it is true to some cases, then it is true for all.
This method of teaching is commonly described as “specific to general”, “concrete to abstract”, or “examples to formula”.
Inductive learning is about the students discovering the mathematical concepts by themselves with the teacher as guide. In this strategy, students observe, hypothesize, collect evidence, and generalize.
Inductive Learning in Math
It is an instructional strategy that is anchored to the constructivist learning theory.
In this strategy, the concept is not directly taught to students. Instead, the students understand and learn concepts by identifying common attributes through comparison and contrast of examples and non-examples.
Mathematics is considered a language with its own set of jargons. Mathematical terms can also be defined through discovery by applying the concept attainment strategy
Concept Attainment in Math
It is an open-ended mathematical task which involves not only problem-solving but equally importantly, problem-posing as well.
In this strategy, the word “investigation” does not refer to the process that may occur when solving a close-ended problem, but an activity that in itself promotes independent mathematical thinking.
It is an open-ended teaching strategy that capitalizes on the students’ ability to identify a problem. A word problem can be transformed into a mathematical investigation by limiting the given information and omitting the specific question that is asking
Mathematical investigation
It is a progressive teaching strategy that allows students to look for real-world problems and finding creative solutions. Students can do this by focusing on the needs of others, collaborating for possible solutions, and prototyping and testing their creations.
Design thinking is a contemporary teaching strategy that fosters creativity by allowing students to come up with concrete and tangible solutions to authentic problems that the students themselves identified.
Design Thinking in Math
understand the audience and have compassion for whom you are designing.
Emphasize in Design thinking
design a prototype to test your solution.
Prototype
engage in an iterative continuous improvement process for testing your innovation.
Test
generate ideas, conduct research, and brainstorm possible solutions. Develop your solution.
Ideate
clearly articulate the issue or problem you need to solve.
Define
It is a strategy that take advantage of children’s love for games. Applying this strategy is good in reducing math anxiety.
Game based Leaming in Math
Manipulatives are concrete objects like blocks, tiles, and geometric figures, that the students can interact with in order to develop conceptual understanding of mathematics concept.
Use of Manipulatives in Math
Associating values or standards of behavior with mathematical concepts can serve as a source of motivation for students.
It will help students get life lessons through math. The valuing part can be done before closing the lesson.
Teacher need to be intentional about values integration and reflect on ways to inject values in math lessons.
Value Integration
It branches out from the Zone of Proximal Development Theory of Lev Vygotsky. It encourages active participation from learners.
Group activities can foster collaborated when thoughtfully designed and carefully facilitated. Group size and composition are some of the considerations in designing group activities. It also helps to explain to the students why doing the activity as a group is essential in learning the lesson where it is applied.
collaboration in Math
Teachers can effectively facilitate meaningful discussion by asking the right questions. Questioning is a beautiful art which scaffolds students learning.
In this strategy, it is important that you have already created a learning environment that is open to questioning.
Teaching by Asking in Math
