This paper is an action research which involves a sample of forty (40) second year students of Mansoman Senior High School. The study was aimed at using the constructivist approach to enhance students' competence in solving word problems involving algebraic linear equations. Prior to the study, it was observed that the students were not able to understand and solve word problems under algebraic linear equations. The constructivist approach of teaching and learning was employed as the intervention strategy and was carried in a series of activities. The pre -test and post -test scores obtained by the students were analyzed quantitatively based on the research questions that preceded the study. Comparatively, the results obtained from the pretest and post -test showed a significant improvement on the students' ability to translate word
