Start with a learning target.
Bring it to life with a game.
Choose a grade, explore verified examples from DepEd curriculum guides, and build a short lesson activity plan. Display it on a TV, use a classroom game, or organize a supervised reading challenge.
Important: This is an independent educational planning aid, not an official DepEd product or certification of curriculum compliance. Some examples cite exact DepEd competencies; others are clearly marked teacher-defined. Teachers must review current guides, content suitability, quarter coverage, and school policy before class use. Nothing here grades learners or stores their personal information.
1. Choose your learning context
MATATAG applies to K–10. Grade 11 uses Strengthened SHS in SY 2026–2027; Grade 12 curriculum depends on whether the school is an SSHS pilot.
2. Pick a curriculum example
3. Confirm the teacher's target
How teachers can use this in a lesson
Before class
- Choose the actual learning competency and expected performance.
- Review passage, answer key, reading level, language, and cultural suitability.
- Open the game on a laptop and connect a TV or projector.
During and after class
- Introduce the target; let learners think and discuss before revealing answers.
- Give explicit feedback and support to learners who need it.
- Use a short exit question to check understanding; don't grade based solely on game points.
