Introduction
This study aim to determine the effect of established collaborative teaching strategies upon the
achievement of both general and special education students in a fourth grade math inclusion classroom. It involved
Pre and Post- Test, interview with teachers to determine their perceptions about the effects of using collaborative
approach in teaching Mathematics.
The findings of this study suggested that teaching Mathematics using the collaborative approach may
have a positive effect on pupil’s behaviour. Findings led to recommendations that teachers play a vital role on
developing performance of pupils in Mathematics.

Methods
This presents a brief description of the research design, the subject of the study, data gathering
instruments used, data gathering procedure, data analysis used and the statistical methods used in presenting,
analysing and interpreting data.

Results

This part presents the data gathered together with the corresponding analysis and interpretation. The
data presented are in tabular form organized in a sequential manner following the order of presentation of the
specific problem.

Discussion
Performance in Mathematics depends on how well the pupils understood their lessons and to how well
do they retain the concepts taught to them. In this manner of measuring the respondent’s performance, they were
given a researcher-made test that covers all the learning areas tackled within the curriculum
The researcher used the six types of collaborative learning strategies in that are conducive in enhancing
academic performance of Grade IV pupils in Mathematics at Paaralang Elementarya ng Calubcub 1.
Upon review of pre-test and post-test, it was found that the pupils of Grade IV from Paaralang Elementarya
ng Calubcub 1 made a gain of 23% in their overall learnings during the presentation and discussion of lessons
within the curriculum.
In summary, the administered pre-test and post-test about Mathematics based on the K to 12 curriculum
had a positive effect on pupil’s outcomes. 23% increase in the result evidently gives a big impact that lectures and
activities during Mathematics time really aided the pupils to attain more knowledge about number facts and problem
solving.
