Mahalaga ang sariling wika: Filipino practice at home makes school lessons much easier to follow. Salitang Magkatugma is a 24-page printable pack for kids in Grades 1 to 3.

What is inside

The pack has 6 writing, 3 rhymes and 2 poem, plus 9 bonus pages. Page titles include “Magkatugmang salita”, “Sumulat ng tugma”, “Tula: Ang Aking Bayan” and “Tula: Ang Saranggola”. An answer key at the back makes checking quick. Everything is written in Filipino first, with short English notes where they help parents.

Covers and headers are in full color, but every activity area is black line art on white, so the pages print cleanly in grayscale and do not waste ink.

Skills it builds

Working through the pages practices rhyming. Each page takes about 15 to 20 minutes, which suits the attention span of kids in Grades 1 to 3.

How to use it

  • Use the new words at home during the week: sa hapag-kainan, sa biyahe, sa laro.
  • Say the pantig slowly and clap them out before writing.
  • Read each instruction aloud in Filipino, then explain in English only if needed.
  • Let your child read the instructions first, then check the first answer together.

Ideas beyond the page

Basahin nang malakas ang mga sagot sa hapunan para marinig ng buong pamilya. Hanapin ang mga salita mula sa pack sa mga karatula sa labas.

Who it is for

Early graders can follow written instructions and enjoy finishing a page on their own, with an adult nearby to check. At 24 pages, this is an activity pack with enough variety for a few weeks of regular practice. Parents can use it for homeschool or after-school practice, and teachers can print it for one classroom.

Printing tips

The file is an A4 PDF. Choose “Fit to page” and print one-sided; black-and-white is fine for the activity pages. At a computer shop, bring the PDF on your phone or a USB drive. You can print the whole pack or only the pages you need, as many times as you like for your own children or your own classroom.
