In the world of children, life is a series of blank pages waiting for the beautiful but sometimes chaotic collision of crayons and imagination. To the untrained eye, it is just play; to Dr. Jerahmeel R. Aquino, it is the making of an architect, a painter, or a designer.

A proud graduate of Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU), Dr. Aquino understands that before a child can sculpt a form, they must learn to mold the clay. His own foundation was poured in the classrooms of the College of Education (CEd), where he earned his Bachelor of Elementary Education major in PreSchool Education (BEEd-PSEd) in 2014.

📚✨ Bringing Learning Closer: Books and Materials for Every Child | January 26, 2026 ✨📚

The activity Bringing Learning Closer: Books and Materials for Every Child was successfully conducted at the Child Development Center, Poblacion West, Santa Ignacia, Tarlac. The initiative was spearheaded by Dr. Rene G. Nanit, BECEd Chairperson, Ms. Maila Suzette Guting, faculty member, and Society of Early Childhood Educators (SEED) with the shared goal of strengthening early childhood education through improved access to learning resources.

Through this activity, age-appropriate children’s books and instructional materials were distributed to young learners, supporting early literacy development and enhancing classroom instruction. The enthusiasm and joy shown by the children highlighted the impact of bringing quality educational materials directly to the community.

This effort reflects the proponents’ commitment to making learning more accessible and meaningful, especially during the formative years of childhood. Together, we continue to bring learning closer—one child, one book, and one community at a time. 💛📖

Special thanks are extended to the BECEd 3 students, who served as Instructional Materials (IM) Developers, and to our generous benefactors—Dr. Arlene V. Tomas, Ms. Gracelle P. Hilario, and Dr. Jeffrey John R. Yasay—for their invaluable support and contributions that made this activity possible.

Findings of the Philippine Institute For Development Studies from the first-year pilot implementation of the MATATAG K-to-10 Curriculum show that curriculum reform—when properly designed—can translate into measurable learning gains. However, the studies also underscore a recurring finding of EDCOM: that curriculum reform will only succeed if teachers are well supported to implement it. 📓💡
