 My Reflections

1. Which views do you agree with? Disagree with? Expound.

I agree with the teacher who wants the students to value their
education because it is a big factor for their success in life.
I have no disagreement with their views because all of it is
applicable in a certain situation.

2. This time, its your turn to answer the three sentence completion
items.
a. My goal/s for my students are:
- I want my students to learn basic education first. To become useful
in our community by teaching them the skills needed for their
specific tracks or career path, a responsible individual, especially in
their studies and in the end of the school year, they will be able to
compete in other students or in other people.
b. What I really want to teach my students are:
- I really want to teach them the values they needed to, the skills,
and the things their interested to for them to have the willingness to
learn and motivate them to continue or persevere their studies. The
impermanence of life that we should make the most out of it as long
as we live.
c. I will teach my students by:
- Thinking best strategies and methods that I could use in my
lessons. Of course I knew that there is no such best method that we
teachers could use in teaching-learning process but I, as a 21 st
century teacher I will do my best to find some strategies and
methods that could fit in the needs of my students and also I will
apply some useful principles in learning.

What philosophy do you adhere to? Why?

Essentialism because this writer strongly believes in a strong

core curriculum and high academic standards.

3. A mission statement is a clear and concise expression of your beliefs,

values and philosophy. Write your own mission statement here. Below
is a sample, but you are free to make your own format. Just K.I.S.S. it.

MY MAP

13 | P a g e
 Among the various role of a teacher is that of a
classroom manager. For you to be an effective teacher in
the future it is important to have the necessary skills in
having a well-managed learning environment.
To reach my target, I did the following tasks:

Step1. Observe a class. Describe the supportive

measures that the teacher uses to manage the
leading environment.

Step2. Analyze the effectiveness of the supportive

measures in the different classroom management
areas.

Step3. Reflect on how you can achieve a well-

managed classroom.

MY ANALYSIS

In what area of classroom management was the teacher most

effective?
Which of the supportive measures were effective? Why?

All of the supportive measures observed were effective

except for some issues with discipline which in my
opinion are just naturally given that the observed
students were just minors.

In what area of classroom management was the teacher least

effective?
Which of the supportive measures were not effective? Why?
It cannot be said that the teacher is less effective when it comes
to discipline, there may be some issues with it but it should be
considered that the students are minors and are prone to
disciplinary issues.

Suggest more effective ways for your answer in number 2.

16 | P a g e
 I think it is normal that you cant follow all the guidelines in
classroom management when it comes to the actualization of the
activity. Sometimes teachers have to given a lot of time to
emphasize the topic to the students.

1. Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish

a well-managed classroom?
These are the characteristics of a teacher who can establish
a well-managed classroom;
Teacher should have attitudes, opinion and emotions
which help, rather than inhibit, the students learning.
Teacher should determine the appropriateness of
student behavior, and arrange contingencies for
various behaviors.
The teacher should be creative in learning process and
methods.
My Reflections
2. What characteristics you have at present that can make you an
effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can
help you.

For me, I have passion in creativity in classroom

management. I always say that I love teaching to be able to
become positive in the field. At present I can claim that my
characteristics are being organized and fair.

3. What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you from
becoming an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome these
characteristics?

Focus is the main characteristic that this writer lacks at the

moment. But, with due time and given more responsibilities I
believe that I will overcome it.

MY TARGET

At the end of this episode, you will gain competence in

identifying possible linkages between the school and the
community. Particularly those that will help attain
curricular goals.

MY MAP

The teacher never lives in isolation. For you to be an

effective teacher in the future it is vital to force genuine

win-win relationship between the school and the
community.
To reach my target, I did the following tasks:

Step1. Turn the community around your

cooperating school.
Step2. Gather information about the
issues/concerns/problems of the community that affects
the school where the teacher and students can help. Also,
gather information about the resources of community.

electricity, water, etc.
3. Resources of the community. Locate the resources of the community,
that the teachers and the students can utilize, like parks, museums,
library, concert halls, movie house, shops, factories, industries sports
and recreational centers, health centers, etc. what instructional
materials can be obtained from the community.
4. Community assistance /service from the school. How does the school
serve the community? Do the schools personnel serve as resource
persons? How does the school participate in town celebrations? How
does the school contribute to the value formation of the community?
What community projects is the school involved in?

 COMMUNITY TOUR OBSERVATION REPORT

Name of the school observed: North Davao Colleges

School Address: Quirino St. Gredu, Panabo City

Date of Visit:

The school is located at Brgy. Gredu, Panabo City. The city is known in
banana industries, fisheries and agriculture and export trades where most of
the people worked for. The community has museums, concert halls, big
hospitals, libraries, sport centers, beautiful park, and other reliable
companies that help people to have an opportunities and sources of income.
The condition of the community in terms of traffic is good because the City
had already have a traffic light and traffic enforcers to ensure that the safety
and the for the good way condition of the place. Some issues of the
community are that there are few trees planted, garbages were not totally
segregated, and dont have proper flows of canals. The community should be
clean and well environment for the students to have a good environment to
study and live for.

In terms of community assistance/service given by the school, the school is

involved in every celebration of the city during Barangay and Municipal
activities. Coordinate a harmonious relationship through the organization of
the PTA. The community would in turn show their gratitude and appreciation
by keeping their surroundings clean and comfortable for the children, and by
sharing resources whenever needed.

MY ANALYSIS

Suggest what new ways by which the school can creatively use the resources
of the community.

If the school has a vacant area they can used that area by planting
vegetables or any kind that the community could benefit and also it will
make the place clean.

3. How will you encourage more community participation among the

teachers and the students?

By volunteering every time the community is doing a worthwhile

project such as gift giving, clean-up drive, beautification projects,
etc.

MY REFLECTIONS

What possible linkages can the community and the schools have?

The local officials within the community could offer any scholarships to
the deserving students who cannot afford to go to school. A strong spirit

of cooperation is exhibited as well as sharing of expertise and material
