As the new school year begins, teachers and learners are excited to embark on a meaningful learning journey toward shared success. This school year brings several changes in many aspects of teaching. The Department of Education will gradually implement Phase 2 of the K to 10 MATATAG Curriculum. While this recent development primarily affects certain grade levels, it may also impact Grade 6, even though the old MELCs-based K to 12 Basic Education Program—introduced during the pandemic, will still be in effect for School Year 2025–2026. We understand that with changes happening in other grade levels, you, as a Grade 6 teacher, might feel uncertain about what to follow. Also, this ambiguity is what we aim to address by offering you our ready-to-use Daily Lesson Log (DLL) for Grade 6 in Quarter 1.
Remember, based on DepEd Order No. 10, series of 2024, Grade 6 will continue to follow the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) for School Year 2025–2026. The Daily Lesson Log (DLL) is an important teaching tool that serves as a clear guide for our classroom interactions. It is used in various parts of the teaching-learning process, including pre-discussion, the actual lesson, and assessment. In addition, this simple document is considered a plan that outlines how, when, and what to teach in order to achieve meaningful learning. The DLLs we uploaded here are safe to download and use. You are also free to revise their content or teaching methodologies to better fit your teaching style.
What’s New in our Daily Lesson Log or DLL for School Year 2025-2026
The Daily Lesson Log (DLL) is an essential tool in the Philippine education system that supports effective teaching and learning. Its primary purpose is to help teachers organize and structure their daily lessons in alignment with the curriculum, particularly the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) or the updated Matatag Curriculum.
By providing a clear guide for each day’s instruction, including learning objectives, content, strategies, and assessment. The DLL ensures that lessons are delivered systematically and meaningfully. It also serves as a form of documentation and accountability, allowing school heads and DepEd supervisors to monitor classroom instruction and ensure curriculum coverage. Additionally, the DLL encourages teacher reflection, helping educators assess the effectiveness of their teaching methods and identify areas for improvement.
It also promotes collaboration among teachers, allowing them to share and align lesson plans to maintain consistency across classes. Overall, the DLL plays a vital role in enhancing instructional quality and ensuring that students receive well-prepared and competency-based education.
Grade 6 Subjects Covered for Quarter 1
School Year 2025–2026 will be the final year of using the MELCs-based K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum for Grade 6. Although this year marks the last for the MELCs-based curriculum, you must still familiarize yourself with the competencies we used to craft these DLLs for Quarter 1. We designed the content of our Daily Lesson Log to meet your instructional needs. However, we are unable to list each individual competency for Grade 6 Quarter 1. Instead, we have included the content and performance standards to give you a general overview of what the DLL covers.
