Fine Lines: Writing Poetry, Fiction, and Drama combines the academic rigor of a literature classroom with the process-oriented bent of a creative writing set-up. It aims to give the students enough grounding in terms of sample texts and discussion points for them to be aware of the various formal structures that characterize various literary genres, alongside a look into the more intricate issues confronted by writers during the creative process. Thus, the textbook hopes to utilize and channel the knowledge acquired by the students in previous literature classes, the expected range of topics and learning competencies outlined by the K to 12 Curriculum of the Department of Education, and the skills needed by the individual practicing in earnest creative writing. The textbook comes with Teachers Wraparound Edition, the new learning guide format of the House. It also contains a detailed curriculum map.

Global Times Living History: Understanding Culture, Society, and Politics The subject–using the insights of anthropology, sociology and political science–aims to provide the students an understanding of how culture, society, and politics affect a country’s current human development goals.

Pambungad sa Pilosopiya ng Tao Ang Pamimilosopiya sa Pagpapakatao ay isinulat nang alinsunod sa layunin ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon tungkol sa pagbibigay halaga sa kritikal at analitikal na pag-iisip na ginagawa sa pilosopiya. Magbubukas ang libro sa pamamagitan ng pagtitiyak sa magaaral na kaya niyang mamilosopiya. Nilalayon din ng libro na maipakita sa mag-aaral na ang pilosopiya ay hindi isang malalim na araling walang kinalaman sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay. Nais ng librong maiparamdam sa mambabasa na ang pamimilosopiya ay isang gawaing may halaga at dapat paglaanan ng panahon. Hindi purong impormasyon ang laman ng libro kundi maituturing itong parang isang usapan na nagbubunsod ng mga tanong, pagmumulat at diskursong umiinog sa mga tanong na hindi kayang sagutin ng Google.

Ang nilalaman at paraan ng pagkakasulat ng aklat ay sadyang idinisenyo upang magkaroon ito ng kakayahang maging kapaki-pakinabang at makahulugan para sa lahat ng uri ng mambabasa, mayaman man o mahirap, babae o lalaki, relihiyoso man o hindi.

Introduction to Philosophy of the Human Person: Philosophizing and Being Human essentially reflects the Department of Education’s aim of student formation grounded upon the recognition of the value of critical and analytical philosophical reflection. The textbook opens by showing and assuring the readers that they can philosophize. It also aims to help readers understand that philosophy is not some ultradense subject that has nothing to do with real life affairs. Philosophizing is an activity that is truly worth one’s time and effort.

This textbook runs not just on information, but more importantly, it takes the form of a conversation, producing personal insights or awakenings, dialogues, discourse, and in dialectics. It is not merely a glossary of important philosophical terms, but a dialogue partner— something the students can have a conversation with every time they feel burdened with questions that do not seem to have any answers (the so-called un-Googleables).

The content and writing style of the textbook speak to the readers on the most fundamental level—on the level of being human. The way the book is discussed will prove relevant to the students as people. Hence, it has the capacity to converse with as many kinds of students as possible, rich or poor, male or female, religious or nonreligious. The textbook comes with Teachers Wraparound Edition, the new learning guide format of the House. It also contains a detailed curriculum map.

Science in Today’s World: Physical Science offers logical and across-the-board integration of the principal topics of chemistry and physics in response to the Philippine K to 12 Curriculum’s goal. It highlights topics on the development of the atom, motion, and light from ancient times to the present. Applications of both chemistry and physics in the contexts of space technology, atmospheric phenomena, environmental impacts, drugs, and cosmetics, sources of energy, electricity, and magnetism were also incorporated. In addition, the book updates the students on the latest developments in chemistry and physics with emphasis on today’s application in everyday life. Aside from minds-on and hands-on activities that develop students’ critical thinking, the unique assessments in each chapter instill the values of leadership, vigilance, creativity, patience, and spontaneity. Science in Today’s World Physical Science is not just a book that offers knowledge and information. It is also a learning experience to further enhance students’ scientific knowledge, skills, and values.
