Mrs. Sheryl N. Navida reviewed the importance of Play -Based Learning during
the LAC session held last October 13, 2022. I was reminded that play provides
opportunities for children to develop a sense of the world around them through inquiry,
exploration, interaction, and problem-solving. Their thoughts and emotions, explore their
environment and connect what they already know with new knowledge, skills, and
attitudes. Just as moving and playing are important to development, the opportunity to
rest and reflect allows children to learn how to self-regulate their emotions and behavior.
I have learned reasons why play must be a part of teaching for it builds imagination and
creativity; fosters cognitive growth, delivers emotional and behavioral benefits, improves
literacy, encourages greater independence, and promotes physical fitness. Guided play
is self-chosen, enjoyable, and process-oriented. She presented ways to incorporate
play in the classroom like using manipulatives, games, acting out, and use of puppets
that made us more interested in the discussion. For me, play-based learning at the
intermediate level might be minimal yet a good way of unfreezing activities, motivation,
and presentation of lessons to the class.

The topic of contextualization and localization was discussed by Mrs. Pearl Lyn
N. Navata during the LAC session held last October 28, 2022. She enlightened us about
the difference between the two. Contextualization is the process of considering
something about the situation in which it happens or exists while localization is the
process of making something local in character or restricting it to a particular place. I
discovered the concrete meaning of these words through the sessions. I was guided on
how contextualization and localization are used in teaching. The lecturer explained
contextualization thoroughly that if a teacher is teaching about the water cycle, they
could discuss how it works in a real-world event such as a flood or hurricane.
Furthermore, if the lesson is about bodies of water the teacher’s examples are the
Balincaguing River and Abagatanen beach. I discovered that I’ve been using these
concepts from the beginning and that I was not aware of them. Contextualization and
localization are very important in making the lesson more interesting and clearer
because the children can relate to what is seen and heard for the experience is at their
reach.
