CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – The Department of Education City of San Fernando Division will launch this incoming school year Fernandino Kids TV as it braces for “new normal” learning amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
“It is an ‘edutainment’ which is a combination of educational content showcasing the Most Essential Learning Competencies issued by the central office and localized by the teachers in the division, utilizing entertaining stories, games, music and images,” DepEd regional information officer Michelle Catap-Lacson explained.
This TeleSkwela will start to air on August 24, Monday to Friday, from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. over CLTV–36. It will cover topics from Kindergarten, Grade One and Grade Two levels.
“Lessons for this TV show are based on the teacher-made detailed lesson plans transformed into modules or self-learning packets anchored on the most essential learning competencies per grade level, per learning area and per quarter,” Lacson added.
The episodes will cover early literacy, numeracy, life skills and essential values each young learner must acquire. Select competent teachers will act as video lecturers and demonstration teachers. — Carlo Lorenzo J. Datu/PIA–3
