Abstract

This study aimed to determine the significant relationship between the teaching domains and the macro skills in learning of Grade 6 learners in the selected schools of Southeast II Butuan District, Division of Butuan City, for the school year 2019-2020. The study used a descriptive research design because it described the data gathered from the teaching domains and macro skills in learning, it is also descriptive because it represents the significant relationship between the teaching domain and macro skills in learning with the use of appropriate statistical treatment as follows; Frequency count, Percent, Weighted Mean, Correlation Coefficient, and T- Test in analyzing the data to arrive at concluding. In the teaching domain, the teacher agreed that the cognitive domain, affective domain, and psychomotor domain in teaching enable the learners to develop their thinking abilities, the ability to appreciate values, and the ability of the whole body to perform action, which leads to total development. A majority of the Grade 6 learners obtained a satisfactory performance in reading. A very acceptable performance followed it. The majority of respondents require improvement in writing. A satisfactory performance followed it. A majority of the respondents indicated a need for improvement in grammar. A statistical performance followed it. In the test of relationship, the domains of teaching— cognitive, affective, and psychomotor — significantly related to reading, writing, and grammar, respectively. Based on the findings, the following conclusions are drawn. The domains in teaching, such as cognitive, affective, and psychomotor, complement each other in integrating knowledge and skills into the learners ‘ development. The learning skills on reading, writing, and grammar serve as a component in the basic need for the development of the learner towards a literate human or person. Reading, writing, and grammar are related factors in the macro skills in learning of learners. Based on the conclusions, the following recommendations were made: Teachers are encouraged to enhance their teaching skills in the cognitive domain, thereby developing learners’ ability to express ideas and concepts effectively. They need to improve their teaching ability in the affective domain, focusing on the promotion of friendship and love among the learners. They are also encouraged to enhance their ability to teach the psychomotor domain, which shows action of the body, involves movement of the body for physical development. The grade 6 learners should practice and master reading, writing, and observe the coherence of grammar to have an outstanding performance. The teacher should be resourceful in imparting knowledge and skills to the learners to lessen the difficulty in reading, writing, and grammar.
