MODULE In this session, you will familiarize yourself with unpacking and combining
OBJECTIVES MELCs into Learning Objectives. By the end of this lesson, you will be able
to:
1. Understand the vital considerations in unpacking and combining
MELCs.
2. Unpack and combine sample MELCs.
3. Affirm that unpacking and combining MELCs provide curricular
flexibilities to field implementers.
1. Form a group of four members within your LAC, preferably with fellow
ACTIVITY 2 teachers in your respective learning area.
2. Using the curriculum guide and a list of the MELCs, choose MELCs in
the first quarter and unpack these into learning objectives.
3. Each team will present their unpacked learning objectives. Discussion
and processing will follow each presentation. Suggestions and insights
from each group will be considered in enhancing the learning
objectives.
Repeat the above process but instead of unpacking, each team will now
combine at least two MELCs of their choice. Group deliberation will be
observed in order to arrive at a consensus. Discuss and jot down the
synthesis of the presentations in your Study Notebook.
