1.Why is it important to unpack learning
competencies?

2. Is it possible that teachers from the same
school unpack the learning competencies
differently? Why?

3. How do unpacking of competencies help
you in designing your lesson plans?

4. What is unpacking of learning
competencies?

Breaks down complex
skills or concepts into
manageable parts
What is
Unpacking?
Makes standards and

Supports
learning competencies more

5. When do we unpack learning
competencies?

When to unpack learning
competencies?
If learning competencies have a

high cognitive demand

considerations if you are to unpack a certain
learning competency?

Skill, Values, and Attitude Requirement
Knowledge requirement,
Conditions by how these knowledge

and/or skills should be learned

7. What are the steps in unpacking the
learning competencies?

Recall:
UNPACKING OF LEARNING COMPETENCIES INTO LEARNING
OBJECTIVES
Revisit content standards
Examine the learning competency to be unpacked
If the learning competency falls under applying, analyzing,

evaluating, and creating.
Break down the learning competency into smaller or discrete

subskills or knowledge components.

Sharing of Outputs
with a Partner

● Find a partner.
● Do “Rock, Paper, Scissors.” Whoever wins, shall share first.
● For a maximum of 7 minutes, let the winner share and explain how
the objectives he or she wrote will help in the attainment of the
learning competency of her choice.
● After that, allow the loser to critique constructively his/her partner’s
work for a maximum of 8 minutes. Suggest ways on how to improve
the output. Explain with respect how the suggestions will be helpful.
● Then, change roles.
