  Adventures in Integrated Science Series is a revised version of Exploring the Realms of Science . It adapted feature from the previous version that was deemed informative and helpful to the students' learning. The series included more activities and more photos and illustrations for ease of understanding the lesson. Since the curriculum adapts a spiral progression, each quarter  starts with a review of the previous lessons and a pretest to assess the students' preparedness with the new lesson. The Chapters have Time to Start which serves as a springboard for the students to focus their minds with the lesson at hand.

 The activities vary in terms of difficulty and deliverables to accommodate the different types of learning strategies. Mental activities such as problem solving, experiments, research presentations, and do-it-yourself projects were also included whenever applicable. To make the topics lighter, poems and storytelling were used to introduce and/or conclude chapter. Students reading the new series will find themselves conversing with these books because of the style of writing used. Moreover, they can also assess their learning because each chapter ends with a Chapter Challenge.

  Most importantly, this series is based on the Curriculum Guide provided by the Department of Education. Competencies that are required for each topic are all included in the activities and lessons presented. This series also provides a Learning Guides that will help the teachers handling the subject in the delivery of the lesson as well as the answer keys for all the assessments and activities provided.

Ang pag-unawa sa mga nakaraan at kasalukuyang kaganapan at paraan ng pamumuhay ng mga tao sa lipunan ay kinakailangan upang ang mga tao ay makatugon sa mga hamong dala ng patuloy na nagbabagong panahon. Ito ang nagsilbing inspirasyon ng mga may-akda upang likhain ang bagong serye ng Araling Panlipunan.

Ganap na nakabatay sa K to12 Gabay Pangkurikulum ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon, ang mga binagong edisyong batayang aklat sa serye ay lalo pang pinaghusay at pinagyaman. Sa bawat paksa, halimbawa, ay naglagay ng pambungad na aktibidad at mga tanong (Magsimula Ka) upang magsilbing pangganyak sa mga mag-aaral patungo sa mga isyung tatalakayin. Sa hulihan ng leksiyon ay naglagay naman ng mga suplementong impormasyon na mahalagang matutuhan ng mga mag-aaral (Pagpapayaman sa Kaalaman).

Updated o napapanahon ang mga impormasyon, gayundin ang mga halimbawa, at sa mga angkop na bahagi ay naglagay ng mga interesanteng e-learning activities habang itinataguyod ang pagkatutong konstruktibismo (constructivism), magkatuwang na pagkatuto (collaborative learning), at pagkatutong pangkaranasan at pangkonteksto.

Pinakahahangad ng mga may-akda na ang mga aklat na ito ay makatulong na makalinang ng isang buo at ganap na Pilipinong may kapaki-pakinabang na literasi at mga mamamayang kapaki-pakinabang sa lipunan.

The Exploring the Realms of Science series K to 12 Edition is an offshoot of the initial chapters from the Exploring the Realms of Science Integrated Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. This series came about as a response to the implementation of the K to 12 Curriculum in our country. The revised edition includes all the topics required by the Department of Education for Junior High School with the inclusion of other topics that the authors deemed necessary for better understanding of the students. Though written by five different authors based on their field of expertise, every book in the series as a whole is cohesive in a way that major areas for each quarter are the same. Focus on application of the concepts has also been added. The uniqueness of the original books is also reflected in the revised edition to offer variety of presentations.

With the cooperation and hardwork of each individual author and the relentless encouragement of the publisher and close friends, this series has been successfully written.

 

Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health are learning areas that provide the students with an avenue for self-expression. Students are encouraged to express their ideas, show their talents and skills freely and expressively, through the different activities given to them.

To ensure that learning competencies in MAPEH Grades 7 to 10 are developed fully, these sets of modules focuses on the alignment mainly with the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) by DepED in all discussions, activities, and other learning tasks.

The varied teaching methods and teaching strategies will provide the learners different approaches in learning and in mastery of every competencies and objectives that are being developed in each module making them relevant and meaningful to life.

Math Builders is a series of worktexts for Grade 7 through Grade 10. The series was written to prepare the students to the study of higher Mathematics in Grade 11 and Grade 12 and to make them globally competitive. All topics and exercises are geared towards the development of the required skills and their critical, analytical, logical, and reasoning ability in each grade level. The series was designed to meet the demands of the K to 12 learning competencies in Mathematics.

Each worktext  is student-friendly. All examples and illustrations are easy to understand and the exercises vary in the level of difficulty so much so that the slow and fast learners are both given the opportunity to solve and to think critically, analytically, logically, and to reason out.

The basic skills that this series aims to develop are knowing and understanding, estimating, computing and solving, visualizing and modeling, communicating, making conjectures, reasoning, proving, applying, and connecting. Also, it aims to hone the students' attitudes and values like accuracy, productivity, creativity, sense of interest, and perseverance.

This series also encourages the teachers and students to use technology in presenting the lessons and in computing and in solving problems when needed.

The "seed of faith" which was planted in the Philippines soil reached its fruition as we celebrate the 500 years of Christianity in our country.

God choose the Filipino people as the first in Asia to receive the Gospel. Now, we have the mission to spread the Gospel and become more authentic witnesses to our faith.

The new JO-ES Seed of Faith: Christian life and Godly Values Series comes as a humble "gift" to answer the call to increase the number of young evangelizers with renewed commitment and enthusiasm in living out the Gospel.

  Young Filipino learners, you are "gifted to give!" "Walang napakayaman na hindi mangangailangan, Walang napakahirap na walang maibibigay."

         Ang Sinag sa Ika-21 Siglo ay isang Liwanag na pumapawi sa dilim. Isang liwanag nan ais makita ng lahat at maging gabay at inspirasyon sa paglalakbay upang matamo ang minimithing tagumpay at maging kalasag sa mga hamon ng buhay.

      Ito ang hangarin ng mga may-akda sa pagbuo ng serye – ang maging gabay o Liwanag sa pagkamit ng mithiin ng mga mag-aaral sa pamamagitan ng paghahasa ng kanilang mga kasanayan na kinakailangan sa pagharap sa tunay na hamon ng buhay. Ang hamon na ito ang pinakasentro din sa pagbuo ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon (Department of Education o DepEd) ng K to 12 Kurikulum. Ito ay upang matugunan ang pangangailangan ng ating lipunan at ng mga mag-aaral sa kasalukuyang panahon.

         Kaakibat ng layuning ito, makikita sa bawat yunit ang iba’t ibang uri ng babasahing makakatulong sa mga mag-aaral sa pag-unawa sa minanang kultura ng mga Pilipino mula pa sa mga ninuno, sa mga dayuhang sumakop sa bansa, mga bansa sa Asya, at iba pang panig ng mundo. Ang mga aralin sa wika ay ayon din sa pangangailangan ng bawat indibidwal upang higit na magamit sa pakikipagtalastasan at pakikipag-ugnayan sa kabuuan - maging ito ay pasulat o pasalita man.
