Grade 4 is now fully ready for the streamlined competencies of the Matatag Curriculum. To make your lesson planning easier, we’ve prepared ready-to-use Daily Lesson Logs (DLL). We know how time-consuming it can be to create a DLL from scratch—especially when you’re busy designing engaging classroom activities that align with the new K to 10 Matatag Curriculum. On this page, you can download our updated Grade 4 Matatag Daily Lesson Log (DLL) for Quarter 3 of School Year 2025–2026.
These free and editable DLLs will help you deliver quality, competency-based, and responsive classroom instruction. Whether you’re handling English, Math, Filipino, GMRC, or other regular subjects, you can use these Daily Lesson Logs. Most importantly, you can revise our DLLs to fit your personal style and professional preferences. Therefore, it’s important to understand the basic information about the Daily Lesson Log.
The Daily Lesson Log is a standardized template used by teachers in the Philippines to plan and organize their daily classroom instruction. In this DLL for Quarter 3 of Grade 4, teachers can plan their classroom activities for each part of the lesson based on the Matatag Curriculum. Usually, the standardized DLL template consists of establishing the purpose of the lesson, developing understanding, generating responses, and other parts that were also present in previous formats. Therefore, the Daily Lesson Log helps teachers plan lessons effectively, ensuring activities are competency-based. Also, it supports diverse learning to accommodate different types of learners. It also promotes consistency in teaching practices, allows for better time management, and serves as a tool for monitoring and evaluation.
What is the Matatag Curriculum for Grade 4?
The Grade 4 Matatag Curriculum helps students move from basic learning skills to more advanced classroom lessons. Therefore, this revised curriculum aims to enhance the quality and relevance of learning from Kindergarten to Grade 10. It seeks to address the challenges of the previous K-12 program by decongesting content and focusing on essential competencies. Additionally, it prioritizes the early development of foundational learning skills, such as reading and numeracy.
The Matatag Curriculum framework places Grade 4 at one of the most important stages of learning development. It considers the competencies of Grade 4 to be interrelated with those of previous grade levels. At this stage, learners focus on critical thinking and social education. You must integrate the principles and elements of the Matatag Curriculum that compose the Grade 4 expected learning targets well into your DLL for Quarter 3. You should choose the best classroom activities and write their objectives and processes in your Daily Lesson Logs.
Outline of Grade 4 Competencies in Matatag Curriculum
In the Matatag Curriculum, Grade 4 marks a significant transition in a learner’s academic journey. Learners will start to explore additional learning areas such as MAPEH (Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health) and EPP. At this grade level, they will also be exposed to more complex competencies in Mathematics, Filipino, Science, and English. In total, Grade 4 covers eight learning areas. The competencies in these subjects have been revitalized to focus on more achievable and essential lessons. While we cannot enumerate all the competencies for every learning area, you can review the subjects’ content and performance standards for Quarter 3 to gain insights into the content of our DLL.
Learning Standards for Grade 4 in Quarter 3
| Subject Area | Content Standard (Q3) | Performance Standard (Q3) |
|---|---|---|
| English | Learners read and analyse different text types (e.g., informational, historical narrative) including the use of figurative language and visual/multimedia elements. | Learners produce coherent oral or written texts appropriate to purpose, context and audience using appropriate tone, mood, and structural features. |
| Filipino | Learners understand and use various Filipino text types (e.g., teksto ng balita, prosedyural, paglalarawan) in terms of purpose, structure and language features. | Learners write and speak in Filipino to express ideas clearly and appropriately for the intended purpose, audience and context. |
| Mathematics | Learners explore and apply measurement (distance, time, speed), geometry (lines, angles), and real-world quantitative relationships in meaningful contexts. | Learners solve problems, justify their reasoning and communicate mathematical ideas accurately and efficiently in relevant situations. |
| Science | Learners investigate how forces, motion, distance, time and speed relate to each other, and gather and interpret scientific data from real-life contexts. | Learners design investigations, interpret results and apply scientific knowledge of motion and forces to explain and predict phenomena in everyday life. |
| Araling Panlipunan (AP) | Learners examine social, political and economic structures and processes (e.g., governance, community programmes, global awareness) in local and national contexts. | Learners engage in critical discussion, demonstrate responsible social participation and apply insights about citizenship and community issues in actions. |
| MAPEH | Learners acquire knowledge and apply skills and concepts related to physical activity, health, wellness and safe movement in different settings. | Learners demonstrate consistent participation, responsible behaviour and application of healthy lifestyle practices and movement skills in various environments. |
| Good Manners & Right Conduct / Values Education (GMRC/VE) | Learners analyse values, attitudes and behaviours in self, family, community and nation and recognise their role in building a just and caring society. | Learners act responsibly in social, family, school and national contexts by practising positive values, showing respect and contributing to community well-being. |
| Edukasyong Pangunahing at Pangkabuhayan (EPP) | Learners explore everyday life skills and processes (e.g., home-economics, basic livelihood, family roles) and apply them in practical contexts. | Learners demonstrate competence, responsibility and safety in performing practical tasks and making decisions for personal and family livelihood contexts. |
