Abstract
Introduction: With the recent implementation of the K-12 curriculum in the Philippines, teachers are challenged to develop relevant, research-based, and responsive instructional materials. Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to develop and validate learning material in physics based on selected least mastered competencies for tenth grades. The researcher developed a set of learning material which covers the topic mirror and lenses. Methodology: This study utilized the descriptive-developmental research focus on the development of instructional material. Mean and Mean Percentage Score (MPS) used to analyse descriptive data. Instructional materials support learning content, allow students to engage in the concepts application and provide an opportunity for evaluation. They are developed to help teachers facilitate learner’s prior knowledge, assist them to process and understand the new learning, and eventually aid them apply newly acquired knowledge to their practical lives. Results: The result of the study showed that students has low mastery in the topic light, specifically in mirror and lenses. The developed set of learning materials was anchored to the ADDIE model: the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Recommendations/Classroom Implications: Teachers should develop learning materials based on the least mastered competencies of the students. The proposed learning materials is recommended for use in Grade 10 Physics classes. Further, the proposed learning materials should be subjected for further research to determine its effectiveness in improving the performance of students in science 10 Physics.

The Philippine government has laid the educational responsibility of developing its individuals to the optimum in their physical, mental, social, emotional and moral aspects on the school. Such tasks include the development of scientific culture among the youths through scientific, technological and vocational skills. In its concordance to relevance, science learning is paramount to reshape the mental cognition of students towards academic performance and the acquisition of the desired competencies, e.g subject specific skills and general and transferable scientific skills
