HILARIO, COLEEN KAYE M., IDNAY, LEIZEL JOY A., IRORITA, EXCEL B.,
JARA, IVAN DOMINIQUE C. Mariano Marcos State University- College of Teacher
Education, Laoag City. February 2016. Enriching the Retention Skills of Grade IV
Pupils on Weather Through The Use of Take-Pass Technique.
Major Adviser: Romelyn T. Lagura
This study aimed to enrich the retention skills of Grade IV pupils on weather through
the use of Take-Pass Technique. It was conducted among Grade IV pupils in three
elementary schools in Ilocos Norte which are Badoc South Central School-SpEd Center,
Ester Elementary School and Shamrock Elementary School.
A 20-item teacher-made test covering the concepts of weather was used as a
pretest to determine their prior knowledge about weather. The same test was used as a
posttest to identify whether the pupils had gained knowledge and enriched their retention
skills about weather.
Findings reveal that the scores of pupils increased after the intervention. Hence,
the use of Take-Pass Technique enriched the retention skills of Grade IV pupils.

Chapter I
Problem Identification
Background of the Study
As we think about the future that lies ahead and the global issues that must be
resolved such as climate change and global access to food, drinking water and health care
it becomes even clearer why science literacy is fundamental to life in the 21 st Century.
Indeed, science is an inspiring process of discovery that helps satisfy the natural curiosity
with which we are all born.
The desired goals of science in the curriculum include what children will attain or
achieve in three different areas: content, processes, and attitudes. Content refers to the
body of knowledge representing what we know about the world. Processes represent the
active component of science and include such activities as predicting, observing,
classifying, hypothesizing, experimenting and communicating. And, attitudes are also
central to scientific inquiry and discovery. These include curiosity, a drive to experiment
and a desire to challenge theories and to share new ideas (Conezio& French, 2002).
Unfortunately, traditional instruction misrepresents science as a body of facts to be
memorized and the process of science as a rigid procedure which deaden students' spirit
of inquiry.If current trends in teaching and learning were not reversed, it would lead to
further problems that would have an impact far beyond the students' time in school.
Correspondingly, the last time that the Philippines participated in international
surveys like the 2003 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS),
the Philippines ranked 34th out of 38 countries in HS II Math and 43rd out of 46
countries in HS II Science; for grade 4, the Philippines ranked 23rd out of 25
participating countries in both math and science. In 2008, even with only the science high
schools participating in the Advanced Mathematics category, the Philippines ranked
lowest among 10 countries.
Similarly, Tucker stated that Grade IV science teachers often have difficulty helping
students understand and relate to scientific phenomena. Textbooks typically focus on
vocabulary words and basic scientific principles, leaving little room for exploration.
With regards to the issue, there are reasons behind the difficulty in acquiring
scientific concepts. Scientific concepts are taught to students through spoon-feeding
method. This type of teaching primarily consists of a teacher-centered style of instruction
where the teacher provides the pupils with all the information they need to know for the
subject resulting in destroying initiative or curbing independent thought and action
(Collins American English Dictionary Online, n.d.). As a result, pupils become passive
learners who do not take responsibility for their own learning. They lack the curiosity to
become fluent in material and will eventually forget much of what they learned once the
lesson is completed.
Chapter II
Methods and Procedure
This chapter presents the strategy or intervention method used, research instrument,
sources of data, data gathering procedure and tools for data analysis.
Strategy or Intervention
The researchers used the Take-Pass Technique to enrich the retention ability of the
Grade IV pupils on weather.
Take-Pass Technique is a cooperative group activity used to share or collect
information from each member of the group. Thus, in implementing the intervention, the
researchers assign groups to the pupils every meeting and they gave an activity wherein
each member of the group should give their idea to the given topic which will be used to
form a bigger idea.
The Research Instrument
A set of 20 item teacher-made test prepared by the researchers were used as tool in
measuring the retained science concepts of the Grade IV pupils on weather of Badoc
South Central School SpEd Center, Ester Elementary School and Shamrock Elementary
School . It was used in evaluating their initial and final knowledge about the science
concepts. It is a multiple choice type of test and questions were factual.
Sources of Data
The data were obtained from two sections of Grade IV pupils of Badoc South Central
School SPEd Center (BSCS-SC) in Badoc, one section of Grade IV pupils of Ester
Elementary School (EES) in Vintar and Shamrock Elementary School (SES) in Laoag
City during the second semester of the academic year 2015-2016.

Data Gathering Procedure
First, a letter of request was made and checked by the research adviser. Next, the
letter of request was approved by the research adviser. Then, the research adviser and the
Principal of every school signed the letter of request. The letter of request was given to
the Principal of Badoc South Central School SPEd Center (BSCSSC) in Badoc, Ester
Elementary School (EES) in Vintar and Shamrock Elementary School (SES) in Laoag
City. The researchers made one lesson plan for each subject matter. The research adviser
then checked the lesson plans. The researchers let the cooperating teacher check again the
lesson plans because it is their present lesson. A pretest was administered and its results
were recorded and tabulated. After the implementation of the pretest, the researchers used
Take Pass Technique to teach the pupils. One science concept was discussed every
day for three consecutive days. On the first day, the different types of weather were
discussed, during the second day was about the different elements of weather and on the
third day, it is the generalization on weather. The researchers administered posttest and
the results were recorded and tabulated. Results of the pretest and posttest were
compared. During the intervention an informal interview was also made to the Grade IV
pupils of the different designated schools as regards to their comments on the conduct of
the study.
Data Analysis
Data were gathered through pretest and posttest, it was answered by the selected section
of Grade IV pupils of the three schools where the researched was administered. The
pretest and posttest evaluated the retention skills of the pupils on the science concepts
they learned specifically on weather through the use of Take Pass Technique.
The scores were interpreted using the following range of interval point scores:

CHAPTER III
Results and Discussion
This chapter presents the findings of the study and their interpretations.
After conducting the pretest, intervention and posttest, the researchers have the following
results on enriching the retention skills of the grade IV pupils on weather through the use
of the Take-Pass Technique.
Table 2 represents the mean of the pretest and posttest scores of Grade IV of Badoc
South Central SpEd Center-A.
The table clearly shows an improvement in the retention skills of the pupils as shown
in the mean scores from 8.57 to 12.10. It also indicates improvement in their
understanding about the concepts on weather. The enrichment in the retention of these
concepts was honed through the use of Take-Pass Technique. It is noted that only 6
(17.14%) pupils got very satisfactory scores and after conducting the intervention, 26
(74.14%) pupils got very satisfactory scores and 1 (2.86%) pupil already got an
outstanding score.

Table 6 shows the results of the pretest and posttest mean scores of the four
cooperating schools.
The table clearly shows the enrichment of the retention skills of the pupils
particularly on weather concepts as shown in the mean scores from 9.02 to 13.37. It
shows that there is a difference of 4.35 between the pretest and posttest mean scores
when Take-Pass Technique was used in teaching.
It is noted that the mean scores of Badoc South Central School SpEd Center- A
greatly improved from 8.57 to 12.1 while Badoc South Central School SpEd Center- B
improved from 6.71 to 12. 80. On the other hand, Ester Elementary School got 6.44 mean
score in the pretest and increased to 11.92 in the posttest while Shamrock Elementary
School got 14.7 in the pretest and 16.57 in the post test.
This table further shows that the total mean scores of the three cooperating schools
from the pretest to the posttest increased, hence, the use of the Take-Pass Technique
enriched the retention skills of the Grade IV pupils on weather.

The different responses from the pupils during the interview also proved that the
use of the Take-Pass Technique enriched the retention skills of the learners. Here are
some of the comments of the pupils after the intervention:
Pupil of Badoc South Central School SpEd Center- A: Nagmayat
diay groupingsmi maam, nagragsak iti agubra nu by group ken nu usto
diay sungbatmi maam ket plus points idiay groupmi. (We love our
groupings and the points given to us if we answer the question of our
teacher.)
Pupil of Badoc South Central School SpEd Center - B: Nalaka

CHAPTER IV
Conclusion and Recommendation
This chapter presents the conclusion derived and recommendations being forwarded.
Conclusion
Based on the findings, it is concluded that the use of Take-Pass Technique in
teaching weather enriched the retention skills of the Grade IV pupils. Moreover, when the
students participate in the activity through collaborative work, it is easier for them to
construct their own ideas and remember the concept.
Recommendation
On the basis of the findings and conclusion, the researchers recommend that teachers
may use Take-Pass Technique in teaching science concepts in order for the learners to
create their own ideas and make generalizations from their own understanding. It is also
recommended that they may provide creative activities that create opportunities where all
learners can freely participate. Lastly, the researchers also recommend to future
researchers to use Take-Pass Technique in teaching science concepts to further test its
effectiveness for a longer period of time.

Thats true! Listen carefully because I will
read the message of Kuya Kim to us.
Dear Grade IV,
I sent to you this box and it is called, The
Weather Mystery Box. There are
mysterious treasures inside of it and you
need to discover what are these. But before
that, follow these directions to understand
the message well. Earn points and you will
receive rewards!
First, you need to guess the picture
through arranging the jumbled words. The
group who can arrange it first will get 10
points and five points to others. Second,
write ideas that clearly describe the
picture. Each group member must give his
or her own idea. And finally, the group
leader will report the ideas they created.
This challenge is so simple. God bless!
What do we call this box?
Did you understand the letter of Kuya
Kim?
Okay. Now, lets have the groupings and
its the same just like the first activity.
Each group will draw one treasure to
discover. I will give manila paper for you to
paste the picture and where you can write
your ideas. Understood?
(When the group got the treasures, the
teacher will repeat the instruction given by
Kuya Kim)
Before we are going to start the discovery
of treasures, what are the things we should
remember when working in group?
Yes teacher!
