INTRODUCTION
Mathematics is a powerful tool created not only for the gifted but for every individual to savor and experience. It is a subject that enhances the ability of learners in terms of numbers and solving problems. Through their experiences and knowledge, they can apply mathematics in analyzing real-life situations. Learning Experiences through Teaching Strategies Uplifting Pupils Performance in Math (LETS UP in MATH) is aligned with DepEd target to increase the performance level of pupils in Mathematics. LET'S UP in Math specifically addresses the result of Mathematics subject since the MPS of the said learning area did not reach the mastery level for the past three years SY 2014-2015-67. 00 %, SY 2015-2016-47. 79%, SY 2016-2017-55. 08%. Furthermore applying different teaching techniques, best practices and using manipulative materials in Mathematics could really help in enhancing pupils understanding and performance in Periodical Test of Grade 3 Maya of Banlic Elementary School.
METHODS
The study used the mixed method (qualitative and quantitative method) to determine the effectiveness of Learning Experiences through Teaching Strategies Uplifting Pupils Performance in Mathematics (LETS UP IN MATH) in which the researchers conducted surveys and interviews with the parents, pupils, and Mathematics teacher. The study focused on one section of Grade 3 Maya with 40 pupils.
RESULTS
The result of the study shows the intervention is effective for pupils. Using Learning Experiences through Teaching Strategies, the performance in Mathematics has been achieved.
DISCUSSIONS
Learning experiences through Teaching Strategies in Uplifting Pupils' Performance in Mathematics (LETS UP IN MATH) can be an effective strategy in uplifting the mathematical skills of primary learners. It also increases the interest of learners to participate in the activities. With such, teachers should attend training seminars related to upgrading teaching strategies suited for diverse learners.
