Exploring Math Possibilities is a student textbook series for Elementary Mathematics from Grade one to Grade Six. It is K to 12 compliant, following the Department of Education’s learning guide released in December 2014, which can be seen through its distinct features. Each book is divided into fi ve units: Numbers and Number Sense, Geometry, Patterns and Algebra, Measurement, and Statistics and Probability. On top of the routine problems involving two-to-three step word problems, the series has separate lessons on solving nonroutine problems. Higher Order Thinking Skills are further developed through tasks that require learners to formulate their own problems. The chapter tests and unit tests can be utilized for summative evaluations.
The Chapter test covers all the skills developed in the chapter to gauge mastery of the content standards. Performance tests with rubrics replaced the lengthy traditional unit tests. Performance tasks are based on real-life situations that are appropriate for the learners. This ensures accurate administration and evaluation of the performance standards set for each unit.

The series comes with a Teacher’s Manual which contains semi-detailed lesson plans that can guide the teachers in the preparation and execution of the lessons. Some pages from the textbooks can be seen here to assist the teacher in finding the topic being discussed in the manual.
As part of Exploring Math Possibilities’ (EMP) TLET package, this workbook series provides supplemental exercises based on the topic sequence of the K to 12 Curriculum and Exploring Math Possibilities’ series. Exercises that cover topics such as estimation, application, geometry, measurement, patterns and algebra, graphing, and nonroutine problemsolving are included in the workbook. The workbook also integrates values and attitudes in keeping with the relevant societal and environmental issues through the learning of Mathematics.
