The 2nd quarter exams check how Grade 3 learners progress across different subjects in the second quarter. It measures not only what students know but also how they apply knowledge in real-life settings. Through quarterly tests, teachers gain reliable feedback on whether competencies in English, Filipino, Mathematics, Science, Araling Panlipunan, MAPEH and Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao are mastered. These evaluations also highlight strengths and areas needing support, making them essential tools for improving teaching strategies. This is why schools give priority to the Grade 3 2nd Periodical Test with Answer Key.
Grade 3 – 2nd Periodical Test with Answer Key Goals
The Grade 3 Quarter 2 Periodical Test is designed to align with the learning objectives set in the DepEd Curriculum Guides. Each subject contributes to the holistic growth of learners through targeted competencies.
The DepEd Exams with TOS and Answer Key aim to provide quality assessments that reflect both academic performance and character development. These tests embody assessment of learning and quarterly assessment standards to ensure that learners not only recall lessons but also demonstrate understanding, application and values integration. The inclusion of a 2nd periodical tests answer key further strengthens transparency and guides both teachers and parents in monitoring progress.
In English, learners build communicative competence by reading and responding to various texts while improving comprehension and writing skills.
In Filipino, they strengthen national identity by developing effective expression, critical thinking and appreciation of literature that reflects cultural values.
In Mathematics, the focus is on critical thinking and problem-solving through number sense, geometry, measurement and patterns. Learners use math not only in classroom exercises but also in real-life decision-making.
Science emphasizes curiosity and application of process skills such as observing, predicting and classifying. Grade 3 students explore their natural environment, practice scientific habits and learn to apply inquiry in solving daily problems.
Araling Panlipunan builds awareness of history, geography and community life. It develops a sense of citizenship, responsibility and appreciation for the environment and Filipino identity.
Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP) focuses on values formation, moral decision-making and responsible behavior, preparing children to act ethically in family and community settings.
The MAPEH subjects—Music, Arts, Physical Education and Health—develop creativity, wellness and holistic growth. Music and Arts encourage artistic expression and cultural appreciation while Physical Education promotes fitness, discipline and movement skills. Health education equips learners with essential knowledge about personal well-being, safety and disease prevention.
