Abstract

The study determines whether the proposed activity sheets are effective to enhance the students? performance in solving mathematical word problems. Also reveals the profile of the students and the validation of the activity sheets. Using the experimental design the Grade 7 students from Punta Integrated School were requested to serve as the respondents of the study. The sixty (66) students were divided into two: thirty-three (33) students as the controlled group and the other thirty-three (33) students as the experimental group. The experimental group was subjected to the use of developed activity sheets. There was a significant relationship between the students? profile and their levels of performance in solving mathematical problems; thus, the null hypothesis was rejected at 0.05 level of significance. This means that gender, age and subject of interest relate to the performance of the students. There was significant difference between the performances of the students; hence, the null hypothesis that the activity sheets have not significantly affect the performance of the students in solving mathematical word problems was rejected. The study is limited to students of Punta IS. Activity sheets utilized was researcher ? made and used for pilot testing. Activity sheet was a basis for utilization of activity sheet for improvement of problem solving skills.
