Abstract:
The teaching of Mathematics is designed spirally
wherein prerequisite skills and knowledge play a
vital role in the development of higher-level skills
and knowledge. This study determined the extent of
readiness of Grade 10 students of DMMMSUSLUC, Laboratory High School for Senior High
School and College Readiness Standards based on
their mastery level along functions and relations;
rational expressions, equations, and inequalities;
exponential expressions, equations, and inequalities;
and graphs and properties of polynomial functions.
The descriptive research and mean percentage score
were the design and data analysis tools utilized. The
results of the analyses indicated that the respondents
have a “closely approximating mastery” level for
Functions and Relations, and Graphs and Properties
of Polynomial Functions while “moving towards
mastery” level for Rational and Exponential
Expressions, Equations, and Inequalities. The
participants are generally “ready” for SHS General
Mathematics and for College Readiness Standards.
