This study re-assesses the effectiveness of Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) in enhancing student engagement and academic performance among Grade 5 learners at RC AKIC-Science Laboratory School in Marawi City. The utility of LAS as a dynamic educational tool aimed at fostering greater involvement in learning activities. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the research involved experimental and control group: one group used non-modified LAS and the other utilizing the modified LAS. Data were collected through interview to selected twelve (12) grade five students; English teacher in Grade 5 was also interviewed regarding her perception on the modified Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) used by the researchers during the intervention. The interview has two phases: pre-interview and post-interview focusing on the impact of modified Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) on student learning. Further, there were also structured observation-checklist in which guided the researchers during the intervention. Student assessments and rubric were also utilized to corroborate data. LAS was modified by adding game-based activities, enhanced cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains of learning, and the assessment procedures. Findings indicated that while both LAS formats had their respective strengths, the implementation of modified LAS correlated with increased student participation and improved academic performance. This revealed that the experimental group and control group showed no significant difference. However, the experimental group, which used the modified Learning Activity Sheet (LAS), achieved a higher mean score of 3.7134 compared to the mean score of control group, which used the non-modified LAS. Thus, the results suggest that modifications to the LAS positively impact student quiz scores, potentially due to enhanced engagement or clarity in assessment methods.
