Abstract
Every Filipino student will be given a practical understanding of scientific principles and concepts relevant to daily life as well as the scientific information, values, and skills necessary to assess and solve issues on a regular basis through the Science Program in the Basic Education Curriculum. The purpose of the study was to compare the performance of the two regular Grade VI elementary Science and Health classes after exposure to two approaches, the Center-Based Learning Approach and the Conventional Approach in teaching. It used a quasi-experimental design. A 50- item-multiple choice knowledge pre-test and post-tests were given. The mean ratings of performance test between the two groups were computed. The researcher used ANCOVA in finding the difference of the performance of the two intact Grade Six classes. The analysis of Covariance Results showed that the performance of the Grade VI pupils in Science and Health subject when taught with Center-Based Learning Approach and Conventional Approach, differ significantly. The observed significant level which is <.0005 is less than .05 which led to the rejection of the null hypothesis which means there is significant difference on Grade VI pupils’ performance in science subject. Between the two approaches, the Grade VI pupils performed better when exposed to Center-Based Learning Approach than when pupils were exposed to the Conventional Approach. The Center-Based Learning Approach was capable of producing better learning performance in teaching than the Conventional Approach in Teaching Science and Health subject in the elementary grades. The Center-Based Learning Approach therefore is an effective approach in teaching elementary Science and Health subject and is therefore recommended for utilization and application.
