PREFACE


3/228

In April 2008 the

57-75 Movement organized a workbooks development write-shop in order to come

upwith an immediate and effective response to the problem of lacking textbooks and instructional materials in pu blic

schools. or two weeks! master teachers from each of the 57-75 pilot sites compiled a series of workbooks on

"cience! #nglish! and Mathematics designed for their elementar$ and high school students.%he write-shop aimed to& '() identif$ least mastered skills in a sub*ect area+ '2) produce lesson guides

that

will help increase the abilit$ of classroom instructors in developing the master$ level of students particularl$ in

problematic sub*ect areas+ and ',) help teachers be creative in developing their own instructional materials based

on resources available to them in their respective schools.oth the facult$ and students of the public school s$stem are expected to gain from this pro*ect. %each

erswill not onl$ be aided b$ the problem-solving and explanations given in the workbooks but will also be helped in

terms of gearing their students towards a unified understanding of the sub*ect matter. %his workbook will also

serve as an alternative medium of instruction in the absence of textbooks and other necessar$ teaching mater ials

that the le ss fortunate ma$ not be able to afford.%he workbooks development write-shop

is

also

57-75s contribution to enhancing the r
