This study aimed to evaluate the developed intervention-learning materials (Phase 1) that support distance teaching and learning in the Philippines. Specifically, the study focused on the utilization (Phase 2) of the developed Differentiated Math Learning Materials (DMLMs) to enhance academic performance and achievements in Mathematics 8: Linear Inequalities in Two Variables. The study employed a mixed-method approach and utilized the DMLMs on grade-8 students of a far-flung secondary school in the Department of Education in the Philippines. The results indicate a significant positive impact on the academic performance and achievements of students in the least mastered contents of Mathematics 8. The intervention learning materials designed for slow-paced and average-paced learners were found to be effective during the implementation of blended and remote learning education. The study's contribution to the field of distance learning education highlights the importance of developing and utilizing tailored intervention-learning materials to address the challenges of distance education.
