The sourcebooks are intended for preservice and inservice training in mathematics at the elementary and secondary levels. They also provide a rich source of ideas and materials for classroom teaching. The books are products of a series of training programs conducted by the UP NISMED which focused on the use of practical work – a hands-on, minds-on and hearts-on teaching strategy.

This sourcebook for teaching science at the grade 1 level is one of a series written for the lower grades. The series is anchored on the following key points: (a) learning science can and should be fun, (b) learning science should be hands-on, minds-on, and hearts-on, and (c) science should be closely linked with other subject areas, especially in the lower grades.
So teachers may fully benefit from this sourcebook, the teaching guide is presented as a lesson plan. A unit plan precedes the lesson plans to make teachers conscious of the need to link related ideas, and to build present learning upon previous ones.

The activities contained in this Sourcebook were based mostly on the activities developed during the lifetime (1994 - 1999) of the Science and Mathematics Education Manpower Development Project (SMEMDP) that focused on the practical work approach as a teaching strategy. The activities were selected based on several criteria: (a) topics required by the Philippine Secondary Schools Learning Competencies (PSSLC), (b) teaching value of the activity, (c) availability of materials and equipment, and (d) simplicity of the procedures. The original activities have been modified, simplified and revised to match the target students' level of skills and to adapt to classroom situations. The objectives were limited to what can be accomplished within the time frame of a high school chemistry class.
Several introductory chapters (I. The Practical Work Approach, II. Keeping the Laboratory Safe, and III. The Construction of Improvised Equipment) are added. These are meant to help chemistry teacher, in teaching more effectively and managing the class more efficiently. A teaching guide follows for each activity.

____________
This Sourcebook highlights the dynamic nature of the process of teaching and learning mathematics. It provides the teacher examples of lesson plans that promote the use of practical work. Practical work is a teaching strategy where hands-on and minds-on activities are used to develop concepts, investigate relationships among these concepts, solve problems, and engage the teacher and the learners in mathematical thinking. In practical work, the learners are active participants in the learning process. They manipulate objects, experience real life situations and from the insights derived from these, they discuss, explore and construct mathematical ideas. Such a dynamic activity provides a concrete basis for the development of abstract mathematical ideas and higher order thinking skills among the learners.

The main objective of this sourcebook is to provide examplar lessons for the classroom physics teachers teaching in large classes. It is hoped that this book will facilitate the teaching of high school physics by providing a guide in developing and designing teaching plans using practical work approach for physics topics.
The lessons contained in the sourcebook are based on the activities developed during the Science and Mathematics Education Manpower Development Project (SMEMDP) from year 1994 to 1999 which focused on practical work approach as a teaching strategy.

This resource consists of teaching and learning materials on selected folk and common toys and games. The toys and games are selected based on their popularity, availability in the locality and cost. Each lesson includes the following: playing with the toy, making the toy, curriculum entry point, suggested activities, and scientific or mathematical explanation. The concepts and skills developed are in consonance with the Philippine Elementary Learning Competencies (PELC) and the Desired Learning Competencies (DLC). Illustrations make the lessons more understandable.

This resource is a collection of stories that integrate science or mathematics concepts in a Philippine cultural context. Written for children, ages 6 to 12, the stories can also be used to supplement lessons in Science and Mathematics in Grades II to IV. Among the topics and concepts covered in the stories are number of legs of animals and counting by two’s, how crickets produce chirping sounds, flies as carriers of disease, behavior of sea turtles, solar eclipse, and how a pulley works. Each story is fully illustrated and has an English and a Filipino text.
