This page offers free downloadable materials for the 2nd Periodical Test, including the Questionnaire, Table of Specifications (TOS), and Answer Key for Grade 3 based on the MATATAG Curriculum. The 2nd Periodical Test is scheduled for October 23–24, 2025, and teachers are now actively preparing their test materials and corresponding TOS. To lighten your workload, we’ve provided ready-to-use questionnaires that you can easily download and customize for your learners. After the test week, learners can look forward to a well-deserved Mid-School Year Break from October 27–31, 2025, followed by the Halloween holidays—a perfect time to unwind, spend time with family, and recharge before classes resume.
In the 2nd Quarter of Grade 3 in the Matatag curriculum, learners focus on learning basic multiplication and division in math, improving reading and writing skills in English, and exploring weather, climate, and the growth of plants and animals in science. They learn about their community, traditions, and basic map skills in social studies, while practicing Filipino language skills through reading and writing simple stories. GMRC helps them learn kindness, respect, and working well with others.

Highlights of 2nd Periodical Tests
As the second periodical test approaches, it is important to review key lessons across all learning areas. Learners are expected to strengthen their understanding of reading and writing in both Filipino and English, apply observation and classification skills in Science, demonstrate awareness of community and cultural values in Makabansa, and practice good character and moral responsibility in GMRC. This review aims to reinforce comprehension, critical thinking, and application of values inside and outside the classroom.

Review Tips
The test will cover essential skills such as classifying living and non-living things, identifying plant parts and their functions, and recognizing simple properties of matter. In language subjects, focus on reading comprehension, grammar, and sentence construction, while in Araling Panlipunan, emphasize roles, rules, and Filipino traditions. GMRC highlights values formation through honesty, kindness, and respect. Reviewing these areas will help students demonstrate mastery not only in academics but also in values and communication skills.
