Quarter 3 Week 5 Lesson Exemplars (LE) and Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) SY 2024 – 2025
What is a Lesson Exemplar (LE)?
A Lesson Exemplar is a detailed example of a well-organized lesson that demonstrates effective teaching methods and strategies for achieving specific learning goals. It acts as a guide for teachers offering a framework for delivering lessons and evaluating student progress. Lesson Exemplars ensure lessons align with curriculum requirements while addressing the diverse needs of learners.
Importance of Lesson Exemplars. Lesson Exemplars play a vital role in enhancing teaching quality. They provide practical examples of how to design lessons that meet assessment criteria and learning objectives. Teachers can use these models to plan and structure their lessons effectively. Creating exemplars involves selecting examples that showcase various levels of performance ensuring they represent best practices. However, this process requires careful thought including obtaining ethical permissions and choosing examples that reflect diverse learning outcomes.
A common issue with Lesson Exemplars is the risk of limiting creativity. To address this, teachers can use examples unrelated to the current course content but still demonstrate the desired skills. For example, an essay exemplar might focus on a different topic than what is being taught helping students grasp the skill while minimizing the chance of copying directly.
What are Learning Activity Sheets (LAS)?
Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) are educational tools designed to guide students through specific tasks encouraging independent learning and reinforcing concepts covered in class. These sheets include structured activities aimed at developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills making them essential for effective teaching.
In response to the Philippines’ transition to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of Education (DepEd) promoted the use of LAS to support continuous education. These worksheets act as self-learning modules allowing students to study at their own pace even without direct teacher supervision. LAS are customized to meet curriculum standards and distributed to students with limited access to online resources ensuring inclusive learning opportunities.
Similar to LAS, student worksheets play a key role in reinforcing lessons and checking understanding. They provide practical exercises that help learners apply theoretical knowledge while catering to various learning styles, such as visual, auditory and kinesthetic.
Learning Activity Sheets and student worksheets are crucial tools for fostering self-directed learning, especially in remote education setups. By offering structured, curriculum-aligned activities, they ensure that learning continues effectively even amid challenges like those posed by the pandemic.
