What is the MATATAG Curriculum for Grade 7?
The MATATAG Curriculum, launched by the Department of Education (DepEd) in 2022 and progressively implemented starting SY 2024–2025, represents a major overhaul of the K to 12 curriculum. For example, Grade 7 reform brings focused, relevant, and streamlined content designed to improve student mastery, reduce overcrowded learning competencies, and emphasize 21st-century skills.
The Grade 7 competencies in the Matatag Curriculum are streamlined to develop foundational knowledge and skills for the learners’ Junior High School journey. Also, the target competencies connect prior learning from elementary to secondary schooling. Furthermore, the curriculum reduces the number of learning competencies to focus on depth over breadth. It also realigns Grade 7 topics across quarters and subjects for logical progression and better retention. Most importantly, Quarter 2 of Grade 7 emphasizes critical thinking, collaboration, digital literacy, and values education.
Overview of Grade 7 DLL – Quarter 2 Subjects
The competencies for Grade 7 in Quarter 2 serve as an introduction to more comprehensive fields across all learning areas. However, we are unable to individually list all the competencies for Quarter 1 here. Thus, we have decided to include only the content and performance standards for each learning area. Also, these standards summarize the competencies on which our collection of Daily Lesson Logs (DLL) is based.
