Abstract: This action research was conducted to identify experiences of science teachers in implementing spiral approach. It includes the teachers’ strategies used to cope with the trend and ways to strengthen the implementation of the approach. Science teachers must be equipped in dealing with different challenges in the development of the educational system. Students’ achievement is reflected how science teachers really understand the practices provided to the learners. The researcher believes that the result of this study will greatly help the science teachers in their journey. Design/Methodology/Approach: The respondents in this study were science teachers from the Junior and Senior department of Paharang Integrated School. The study used the descriptive quantitative method of research with the questionnaire as its main tool in gathering data. The items in the questionnaire were scored based on four options Likert Scale to collect the desired data from the participants. Findings: Findings revealed that all of the respondents agreed that the learner materials provided by the government are not enough and their way of coping to the trend was to modify the activities. Furthermore, among the ways to strengthen the implementation of spiral approach, respondents strongly agreed that being resourceful and give students a choice on how they learn are essential. Research Implications: The researcher believes that this study could be useful to ensure maximum opportunity in assisting science teachers in facilitating the lesson. The findings from the research are expected to enhance students’ learning in different areas of Science. Moreover, this study may help students improve student’s abilities and skills since multiple intelligences are considered in implementing the spiral approach. Originality or Value: No part of this study was copied, falsified or fabricated. Studies were cited properly. The respondents of the study are science teachers and it utilized descriptive method of investigation
