Abstract

This thesis titled, “EASY MATH: An Intervention material on the Numeracy Skills of Grade 10 Students” intended to find answers to the following questions: 1.) What is the level of acceptability of “EASY MATH”:An intervention material with regards to components that concludes objectives, content, topics, and activities? 2.) What is the level of acceptability of “EASY MATH”:An intervention material in terms of the characteristics such as usability, suitability , and reliability? 3.) What is the level of numeracy skills of the Grade 10 students relative to reading/recognizing numbers, ordering and comparing of numbers, performing operations on numbers, problem solving and number sense, and analyzing patterns and graphs? 4.) What is the performance in using “EASY MATH”: an intervention material of Grade 10 students in terms of pre-test and post-test? 5.) Is there a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test performance in “EASY MATH”: an intervention material of Grade 10 students? Descriptive-quantitative research designed was employed in the study. Respondents were selected using the non-probability sampling specifically purposive sampling. The result of the study showed that EASY MATH: An intervention material was highly acceptable in terms of its components that concludes the objectives, content, topics, and activities as well as in terms of its characteristics such as usability, suitability and reliablity. Study showed a remarkable improvement from numerate to highly numerate on the following: Remembering and Recognizing Numbers , Ordering and Comparing of Numbers and Performing Operations on Numbers. However, Analyzing Patterns and Graphs remained to Highly numerate while Problem solving and Number sense remained to Numerate before and after using the interventiona material. It is concluded that the EASY MATH An Intervention material enhanced learning with regards to numeracy skills of the repsondents. The result of the pretest stage was verbally interpreted as Numerate while during the posttest stage, it was verbally interpreted as Highly Numerate. For the difference between the pretest and posttest, it showed an analysis of Significant. The EASY MATH Intervention material was an effective tool in improving the numeracy skills of Grade 10 students. With the positive results of the study, it is hereby recommended for consideration that the EASY MATH intervention material can be used as a reference and additional learning activity to aid students difficulty in numeracy.<
