| Summary: | The study was conducted to investigate if there is an influence of instructional materials on the academic performance of preschool children in three schools in Baliuag, Bulacan for the third grading period of school year 2005-2006.To obtain the data on the extent of utilization of instructional materials, the researchers prepared and used questionnaires that were later given out to eighteen teachers in Montesorri de Sagrada Familia, Montessori School of Immaculate Concepcion, and St. Mary's College of Baliuag. As for the academic performance of preschool children, the researchers obtained a copy of the report cards of 60 students through the help of the preschool teachers and the principal of each school. The results were analyzed statistically by getting the average scores of each subject and ranking it from very great extent to no extent and using the frequency distribution table and percentage to compare the scores. The outcome led the researchers to an answer that there is no direct or has minimal influence of instructional materials to the academic performance of preschool children.Based on the outcome derived from this study, the following conclusions were drawn: preschool children in these three (3) schools in Baliuag have academic performance ranging from very satisfactory to outstanding, instructional materials facilitate and maximize the acquisition of learning skills by preschool children, and videotapes are the modern instructional materials most extensively used in the preschools. Hopefully, the study will help further research on improving instructional materials in aiding children's learning. |
