Bebito Elementary School conducted a School Learning Action Cell (SLAC) on the Guidelines on Lesson Planning and Learning Design โ DepEd Order No. 16. s, 2026. This activity aimed to understand the said guidelines, to strengthen Lesson Planning preparation for this school year, to enhance teaching quality, to promote reflective practice and to align with the Three-Term Calendar.
The session formally begins by presenting the objectives of the SLAC and emphasizing the importance of this topic which will aid teachers in creating lesson plans for this academic year. Mr. Ronald C. Oriarte, Master Teacher II, talks about the first topic, Simplifying Lesson Planning. He talked about the ILAW (Intention, Learning Experience, Assessing Learning, and Ways Forward) framework for lesson plans. This ILAW lesson plan is designed to be clear and scannable, ensuring that teachers focus on the learning competency. Mrs. Rhea C. Maraver, Principal I, spoke on the Learning Design Principle. She explained that a well-organized foundation can result in a successful educational experience that guarantees knowledge is easily learned, retained, and applied to real-world situations rather than being forgotten. Mr. Oriarte revisits the third topic, which is lesson planning as a tool for better teaching. He taught that in order to develop and nurture greater engagement and quantifiable success, learning objectives must be in line with curriculum standards and relevant to learners' needs. Mrs. Maraver talks about lesson planning as a collaborative exercise and lesson planning and instructional support. She explained that teachers have the chance to exchange teaching methods and practices that optimize learnersโ achievement and teachersโ professional development. Additionally, a well-organized lesson plan and adequate instructional support can offer a clear road map for what students must learn and how the contents will be presented to guarantee a focused and interesting class period.
Teachers gained fresh perspectives and information that would aid them in lesson planning and classroom instruction as the SLAC came to a successful conclusion. The BES teachers' dedication to providing quality instruction is strengthened by this activity.
