The study has a descriptive correlational design. It was made use of the descriptive-survey, checklist method and rubrics. Based on findings, the Aeta students were found to have a "Good” level of Creativity, Collaboration, Critical Thinking and Communication Skills in both pre assessment and post-assessment while the social studies teacher’s Teaching Practices were found to be “sometimes” applied in the teaching and learning process. The results also show a positive moderate relationship between the teachers' Teaching Practices as to "Delivery" and the Aeta learners' Creativity, Critical Thinking and Communication Skills and a positive low relationship between the teacher-respondents' applied Delivery and the Aeta learners' Collaboration Skill. Results also show a positive moderate correlation between the Teaching Practices under "Evaluation" and the Creativity, Critical Thinking and Communication Skills of the Aeta learners. Based on the results, the researcher recommended School Administration and Teachers to adopt initiatives and establish good two-way communication, create opportunities to connect, establish a school-wide structured opportunities for parents’ involvement and communicate often about the need for and importance of parental involvement, and teachers must engage students more on learner-centered approach, expose students on experimenting, exploring, questioning, creating assumptions, using analysis, imagination, synthesizing information and evaluation.

Summary
Today’s Education system faces irrelevance unless we bridge the gap between how students live and how they learn. It is teacher’s duty to do whatever they can to help their students connect learning with real life and to provide them with the necessary skills to prepare them for success. Due to the emergence of very sophisticated information and communication technologies, globalization, migration, international competition, changing markets, transnational environmental and political challenges, new urgency to develop 21st century skills students need to be able to succeed in the 21st century world becomes important and critical. Employers all over the world say that recently hired workers including post-secondary graduates, are illprepared in a number of basic knowledge areas and in way of the key skills for successful work in the 21st century
