Abstract

Mathematics has long been recognized as one of the most challenging subjects in education. The Philippines has consistently shown low performance in global Mathematics assessments, as the 2018 Programmed for International Student Assessment (PISA) highlights. This study examined the effectiveness of the Zoology-Imagery Approach in teaching mathematics to enhance classroom engagement among Grade 1 pupils in a public elementary school in Ozamiz City, Misamis Occidental, during the academic year 2023-2024. Using classroom- based action research, 31 pupils were selected through purposive sampling. Data collection involved a researcher-made test, and statistical analysis included mean, standard deviation, t-test, and thematic analysis. Results showed that the Zoology-imagery approach in teaching mathematics subject was a highly effective teaching strategy and has demonstrated a significant impact in enhancing pupils’ classroom engagement and involvement. Furthermore, the zoology-imagery approach significantly improved classroom engagement and motivation to learn mathematics and fostered pupils’ mathematical power. It is recommended to integrate this approach into educational practices to enhance pupils’ engagement, academic performance, and learning outcomes.
