Teacher III
THIS IS ALL ABOUT NUMERACY
• Numeracy is the knowledge, skills, behaviors, and
disposition that learners need in order to use Mathematics
in a wide range of situations. It involves recognizing and
understanding the role of Mathematics in the world and
having the dispositions and capacities to use mathematical
knowledge and skills purposefully. This implies that
teachers shall put premium in developing the numeracy
skills of the learners for them to survive and understand
the world.
• SDO-Albay crafted this Numeracy Assessment Tools to
diagnose and assess the numeracy skills of the learners to
promote better performance in Mathematics across the
division by generating baseline data of the numeracy skill
levels of the learners that will give information for
planning and making decisions on instructional
adjustments, interventions, and practices in the schools.
THE SCHOOL TESTING TEAM (STT)

PROCESS ARE REFLECTED IN THE ENUMERACY CARD USING THE
SCALES AND DESCRIPTIONS AS FOLLOWS:
• NMS – NEEDS MAJOR SUPPORT
• A learner got an average rating of 74% and below, so he/she did not achieve the passing rate
of 75% per DepEd Order #8 s. 2015 and majority of the skills and processes are under needs
major support.
• A – ANCHORING
• A learner got an average rating of 75% to 79%. - The learner has achieved the passing rate,
however there are still skills and processes that are under needs major support.
• E – EMERGING
• A learner got an average rating of 80% to 84%. There are skills and processes which are under
anchoring, and/or developing, however, there are also skills that are under needs major
support.
• D - DEVELOPING
• A learner got an average rating of 85% to 89%. - There are skills and processes that are under
anchoring, developing, and/or transforming however, there are few skills that are under needs
major support.
• T - TRANSFORMING
• A learner got an average rating of 90% and above. - - Majority of the skills and processes are
under transforming. However, few skills and processes are under needs major support,
