Abstract
This study assessed the level of performance in Science of the Grade 4 learners of Daldalayap Elementary School, San Clemente District, Tarlac Province during the school year 2023-2024 through the quantitative-descriptive research design. The quantitative-descriptive research design was employed to determine the level of performance in Science of the Grade 4 learners based on their final rating for school year 2023-2024. It was also utilized to look into the weaknesses in Science of the Grade 4 learners. Based on the findings, support instructional materials were proposed to enhance the level of performance in Science of the Grade 4 learners. The developed support instructional materials were evaluated by experts as to their acceptability in terms of content, quality of presentation and physical make-up. The sources of data in this study were the Science teachers in Daldalayap Elementary School who provided data to answer the sub-problems raised in the study with 16 Grade 4 learners as subjects of the study. Frequency, percentage and weighted mean were utilized to treat the data statistically. Summary of Findings: 1.0 Level of Academic Performance in Science of the Grade 4 Learners There were 3 or 18.75 % of the learners who obtained “advanced” level of performance or rating of 90-100%. There were 5 or 31.25% of the learners who obtained 85-89% rating described as “proficient” level of performance. There were 7 or 43.75% learners with 80-84% rating described as “approaching proficiency” performance. There was 1 learner or 6.25% with 75-79% rating described as developing performance. No learners obtained rating of below 75% described as “beginning” performance. 2.0 Weaknesses in Science of the Grade 4 Learners The weaknesses in Science of the Grade 4 learners are the following: Changes in the position of the sun with the length of shadows; Other weather instruments used to measure different weather components; Effects of the sun to human activities; The water cycle; Water from different sources in the context of daily activities; Characteristics of different types of soil; Effects of force when applied to an object; Changes in solid materials when hammered and cut; Changes in solid materials when pressed; and Materials that undergo decay. 3.0 Support Instructional Materials in Science for Grade 4 Learners Support instructional materials in Science for Grade 4 learners were proposed to improve their level of academic performance. 4.0 Acceptability of the Support Instructional Materials In Science for Grade 4 Learners In terms of content, 4 of the 5 criteria had WM of 4.00 and 1 with WM of 3.50 for descriptive equivalent of “very acceptable.” In terms of quality of presentation, 2 of the 3 criteria had WM of 3.50 and 1 with WM of 4.00 for descriptive equivalent of “very acceptable.” In terms of physical make-up, 2 of the 3 criteria had WM of 3.50 and 1 with WM of 4.00 for descriptive equivalent of “very acceptable”. The overall average weighted mean was 3.75 for descriptive equivalent of “very acceptable”. Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. Most of the Grade 4 learners are approaching proficiency in Science which indicates that they have done average work and have a good grasp of scientific concepts and acquisition of skills in Science. 2. The weaknesses in Science of the Grade 4 learners are changes in the position of the sun with the length of shadows, other weather instruments used to measure different weather components and effects of the sun to human activities. 3. Support instructional materials in Science were proposed for the Grade 4 learners to enhance their level of academic performance. 4. The proposed support instructional materials in Science are very acceptable based on the evaluation of experts. On the basis of the findings and conclusions drawn, the following recommendations were offered: 1. The proposed support instructional materials should be considered for use by school authorities concerned to enhance the level of academic performance of Grade 4 learners. 2. The developed support instructional materials should be tried out on a bigger scale for further improvement of the materials. 3. Teachers should be encouraged to develop instructional materials particularly on subject/ topics where most students encounter difficulties. 4. The school administration should provide support in the production of instructional materials developed by teachers. 5. Other researchers may conduct similar studies on a wider scope to validate the findings of the study.
