Introduction
Developing Curriculum is one way of selecting, organizing, executing and
evaluating learning experiences of the needs, abilities and interest of the
learners and the nature of the society and community as well.
It is a great challenge indeed for the K-12 implementers to enhance or even design a
curriculum that best fit to the local learners in order for them to be willingly
motivated to participate in mastering core competencies that is required for them
and apply whatever knowledge that they have learned as the need arises.
Language acquisition and learning is an active process that begins at birth and
continues throughout life. Curriculum in English Grade 2 has been an area of focus
by the curriculum developer because mostly motivated students tend to enhance
their language abilities by using what they know in new and more complex contexts
and with increasing sophistication (spiral progression). They reflect on and use
prior knowledge to extend and enhance their language and understanding. By
learning and incorporating new language structures into their collection and using
them in a variety of contexts, students develop language fluency and proficiency.
Positive learning experiences in language-rich environments enable students to
leave school with a desire to continue to extend their knowledge, skills and interests.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Summary:
English Grade 2 Curriculum has 14 domains: Oral language,
phonological awareness, book and print knowledge,
alphabet knowledge, phonics and word recognition, fluency, spelling, writing
and composition, grammar awareness and structure, vocabulary development,
reading comprehension ,listening comprehension, attitudes towards language,
literacy and literature, study strategies and viewing. Every domain has distinct
competency subdivided into four quarters. These competencies should be
mastered if possible throughout the school year.
Recommendation:
1.It would be best if teachers, school heads, and parents should both
cooperate in motivating learners to master lessons /competencies; they
should have frequent contact as form of collaborative effort in terms of
assessing and evaluating learners performance.
2. Department of Education curriculum developers should design curriculum
that really allows students to understand better the world in which they live and
contributes to the development of their personal perspectives of the global
community.
3. Curriculum developers should design curriculum which help learners
to be proficient in the language and enables them to access, process and
keep abreast of information, to engage with the wider and more diverse
communities, and to learn about the role of language in their own lives, and in their
own and other cultures.
