This approach makes use of Self-Instructional Materials(SIMs) in the different learning areas. It aims to address the following problems: 1. classroom shortage 2. teachers shortage 3. Insufficient learning materials 4. seasonal absentee students 5. chronically ill students 6. students living in conflict/disaster areas 7. indigenous students 8. students engaged in earning a living to augment family income for adequate learning materials. The KEY PLAYERS for Implementing MISOSA 1. The Designated Division MISOSA coordinator who facilitates MISOSA implementation throughout the division. 2. The School Head who manages MISOSA implementation. 3. The Teachers and Teacher-Facilitators who implement the project and supervise the learners in the program. The Implementation of MISOSA MISOSA is designed for Grades IV,V and VI classes. It is assumed that all pupils in these grades are readers. Implemented in congested classes regardless of who the children are. Classes are subdivided into 2 groups: In-school group- taught by a regular teacher in the classroom Off-school group- taught by a teacher-facilitator in an alternative venue.  The MISOSA Off-school group with their teacher-facilitator will hold their classes in any of the following: Community learning centers (including church premises,barangay halls, public libraries, etc.)    
