The 4th Quarter Periodical Tests for Grade 7 (Matatag Curriculum) will be held on March 19–20, 2026. These tests cover the key lessons taught throughout the quarter. Thus, expect questions that check reading comprehension, critical thinking, and the application of concepts. Topics will come from the Matatag Curriculum’s core learning areas, so students need to review their modules and class activities.
Most schools implement the periodical tests over two days. Typically, teachers schedule English, Filipino, Math, and Science on the first day. Meanwhile, Araling Panlipunan, MAPEH, and Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao often follow on the second day. Furthermore, each subject test aims to measure how well students understand what they have learned. In addition, the test format may include multiple-choice, short-answer, and practical tasks.
This test counts for 20% of the final grade in each subject. Consequently, a good score can boost the overall grade and reflect strong learning progress. Therefore, students who prepare early and study steadily are more confident and ready on test days. Ultimately, your success on these tests shows hard work and helps you finish the school year strong.
