What Is the ILAW Lesson Plan Format?

Before diving into Week 5, it helps to understand what makes the ILAW format different from what most of us used before.

ILAW is an acronym that stands for:

I — Intentions (What do you want learners to achieve?)
L — Learning Experiences (How will they get there?)
A — Assessment (How will you know they learned?)
W — Ways Forward (What happens next — remediation, enrichment, or extension?)

“The ILAW template is a guide, not a checklist.” — DepEd Official Learning Systems Guide

Introduced under DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2026, the ILAW format officially replaces both the old Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) and the Daily Lesson Log (DLL) as the single, unified lesson planning document for all grade levels starting SY 2026–2027. It is anchored in 8 evidence-based Learning Design Principles and includes a new Declaration of AI Use section, reflecting how teaching is evolving in the modern classroom.

One of the most practical changes is that the ILAW plan encourages session-based planning — meaning, instead of writing a separate plan for each day, you map learning across multiple sessions in one coherent document. For example, Session 1 might tackle vocabulary building, Session 2 focuses on reading comprehension, and Session 3 zeroes in on writing output.

The Three-Term School Calendar: Where Does Week 5 Fall?

Understanding the structure of the DepEd Three-Term School Calendar is key to knowing what to expect in Week 5.

Term	Coverage	Approximate Weeks
Term 1	June – September	Weeks 1–15
Term 2	October – January	Weeks 1–15
Term 3	February – May	Weeks 1–15

Term 1, Week 5 typically falls around the second or third week of July in SY 2026–2027. By this point, students have completed their classroom orientation and initial lessons. Week 5 is a critical instructional week — learners are now moving deeper into core competencies, and teachers are beginning to differentiate instruction based on what early assessments revealed.

This is also the week where full ILAW compliance is strongly encouraged, even though DepEd allows the use of the old DLL/DLP format until the end of Term 1 under Section 23 of DO 16, s. 2026. Getting comfortable with the ILAW structure now will make Term 2 — when full compliance is required — much smoother.

Grade 6 ILAW Lesson Plan — Term 1 Week 5: Subject Overview

Here’s what Grade 6 learners are expected to work on during Week 5, across all learning areas under the MATATAG Curriculum:

English 6

By Week 5, Grade 6 English learners are developing stronger reading comprehension and critical thinking skills. Expect lessons that cover:

Literal, inferential, and critical reading using diverse text types
Vocabulary expansion through context clues and word study
Grammar in use — appropriate tenses, modifiers, and sentence construction
Text response tasks — short written reactions, summaries, and text-to-self connections
Oral communication — structured discussions and pair/group sharing activities

Tip for teachers: In the Learning Experiences section of your ILAW plan, incorporate think-pair-share and close reading activities that build both comprehension and expression. Don’t forget to document how these experiences connect to the stated Intentions.

Filipino 6

Sa Filipino 6, ang mga mag-aaral sa Linggo 5 ay patuloy na nagpapalalim ng kanilang kakayahan sa:

Pagpapalawak ng bokabularyo gamit ang iba’t ibang estratehiya
Pagsusuri ng tekstong naratibo at impormatibo — pagkilala sa pangunahing ideya, detalye, at layunin ng may-akda
Wastong paggamit ng gramatika — pagkilala at paggamit ng iba’t ibang uri ng pangungusap
Pagsulat ng maikling sanaysay o liham na may malinaw na layunin at organisasyon
Pakikinig at pagsasalita — pakikilahok sa talakayan at pagbabahagi ng opinyon nang may respeto

Mathematics 6

Grade 6 Math in Term 1 builds strong foundations in:

Operations on fractions and decimals — addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in real-life contexts
Ratio and proportion — solving word problems involving rates, ratios, and proportional relationships
Geometry — basic transformations including translation, reflection, and rotation; introduction to tessellation
Problem-solving strategies — multi-step word problems that develop logical and critical thinking

ILAW tip: For the Assessment component, design activities that go beyond paper-and-pencil tests. Performance tasks like market simulation (applying ratio and proportion to buying and selling scenarios) work wonderfully for Grade 6.

Science 6

Science 6 learners in Week 5 are typically exploring topics in:

Matter and its properties — physical and chemical changes in everyday materials
Living things and their environment — ecosystems, food chains, and biodiversity
Scientific process skills — observation, classification, inference, prediction, and communication
Inquiry-based activities — simple investigations that develop curiosity and analytical thinking

For teachers implementing Canva portfolios or digital documentation in science class, Week 5 is an excellent time to begin having students photograph and annotate their lab activities — building their e-portfolio one entry at a time.

Araling Panlipunan 6

AP 6 in Term 1 focuses on Philippine history and civics, with Week 5 lessons potentially covering:

The Katipunan — its establishment, organizational structure, goals, and growth
Philippine revolution — causes, key figures, and significant events

Primary source analysis — reading and interpreting historical documents

Edukasyon sa Pagpapahalaga (ESP) 6

ESP 6 centers on values formation and moral development, with Week 5 likely covering:

Respect and responsibility in the family and community
Honesty and integrity in everyday decisions
Caring for the environment as a civic and moral duty
Reflection activities — journaling, discussion, and case study analysis

MAPEH 6

MAPEH integrates Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health and by Week 5 includes:

Music — appreciation and analysis of Philippine folk music; rhythm and melody exercises
Arts — elements of art applied to cultural artforms; creating original works inspired by Philippine heritage
Physical Education — fitness activities, basic sports skills, and teamwork games

Health — personal hygiene, mental wellness, and health decision-making for adolescents
