Abstract
This study was conducted to identify the level of engagement in learning mathematics during covid-19 and the challenges encountered among Grade 1-3 learners to design an intervention program.Quan-Qual method of research design was used to complete this action research specifically, sequential explanatory design. The study involved eighteen (18) learners research participants. Specifically, six (6) in each Grade level in 1, 2 and 3 using stratified sampling. The target respondents undergone one on one interaction through home visitation to gather the needed data through an interview. Then, documentary analysis was used based on the results for the development of the said target output. The study found out that learners’ challenges encountered in learning mathematics were lack of understanding and guidance.This study implies that the teacher and school must be innovative and resourceful enough and ensure the quality delivery of learning to learners.References
