Abstract:
This study examined the impact of contextualized and localized instructional materials and worktext on the ac ademic achievement of Grade IV learners in Mathematics. A quasi-experimental design and quantitative cor relational research design were employed to investigate the effect of these materials on the numeracy levels and computational skills of 110 Grade 4 learners. The study utilized a purposive sampling technique and administered pre-assessment and post-assessment tests to evaluate students' learning difficulties in Mathematics. The results show that the utilization of contextualized and localized instructional materials and worktext significantly im proved students' performance in Mathematics, with notable enhancements in understanding and application of mathematical concepts across all numeracy levels. A strong positive correlation was found between pre-test and post-test results, indicating the effectiveness of the materials in enhancing students' understanding and application of mathematical concepts. The study highlights the importance of building existing knowledge and skills in Math ematics education and provides insights into developing effective instructional materials and strategies to support learners' needs. The findings have implications for Mathematics education, emphasizing the need for targeted support to develop foundational numeracy skills and promote deeper understanding of mathematical concepts. The study's results suggest that contextualized and localized instructional materials can be a valuable tool in enhancing students' Mathematics achievement.
