The document discusses a learning episode focused on classroom management. It includes an overview of intended learning outcomes, which are to plan how to manage time, space, and resources to provide an appropriate learning environment. Performance criteria include the quality of observation, analysis, reflection in documentation. Learning essentials discuss establishing clear rules and procedures, involving students in rule design, and reinforcing positive behavior. The student's map outlines steps to observe a class, document components, analyze structure and behavior, and reflect on management's impact. Tools include observation guides. The analysis examines how organization affects behavior and which strategies motivate students. Reflection imagines rules for high schoolers. Theory is integrated by identifying effective behavior management strategies.

My Learning Episode Overview Episode 3 provides an opportunity for me to examine how classrooms are structured or designed to allow everyone’s maximum participation and effective learning. I will be able to examine how classroom management practices affect learning. My Intended Learning outcomes In this episode, I must be able to plan on how to manage time, space, and resources to provide a learning environment appropriate to the learners and conducive to learning. My Performance Criteria  quality of my observation and documentation,  completeness and depth of analysis,  depth and clarity of classroom observation-based reflection,  completeness, organization, clarity of portfolio and  time of submission of portfolio. My Learning Essentials The classroom climate that is conducive for learning is one that is non-threatening yet business-like. It is a classroom where:  Specific classroom rules and procedures are clear.  Classroom rules and procedures are discussed within the few days of the school.  Students are involved in the design of rules and procedures  Techniques to acknowledge and reinforce acceptable behavior are employed  Clear limits for unacceptable behavior are established and negative consequences for such are communicated  Classroom process are democratic Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 FS 1 FIELD STUDY Learning Episode
My Map To realize my Intended Learning Outcomes, I will work my way through these steps: Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 Observe a class. Using a checklist, find out the evident classroom components. Describe how the classroom is structured/designed to allow everyone to participate in the learning activities. Relate the data in your checklist to the learners’ behavior. Reflect on how classroom management affects learning
My Tools Use the activity form provided for you to document your observations. An Observation Guide for the learners’ Characteristics Read the following statements carefully. Then write your observation report on the provided space. 1. As you observe the class, look into the characteristics of the learners. Note their ages. 2. How many boys are there? How many girls are there? 3. Focus on their behavior. Are they already able to manage their own behavior? 4. Can the learners already work independently? 5. Describe their span of attention. 6. Look inti their listening skills and ability to concern. Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 Name of the School Observed: Governor Ferrer Memorial National Highschool - Buenavista Annex Location of the School: Buenavista 2, General Trias, Cavite Date of Visit: July 29,2015 1. Some of the students are noisy while the teacher is discussing their lesson, but most of the students are listening. They are 14-15 years old. 2. There are 24 boys and 23 girls. 3. As senior students in their school, most of the students can manage their behavior but some of them cannot control their noise. 4. Most of the students are still depending their answer with their seatmates. 5. The students exert more patience especially when their teacher is discussing their lesson. 6. They listen very well to their teachers’ discussion.
Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 An Observation Guide for the CLASSROOM VISIT Be guided by these questions as you do your observation classroom management. It is also good to ask the teacher for additional information, so you can verify your observation. Write your notes below; and then organize your data in the table that follows. 1. Are there areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage of teaching aids, books, students’ belongings, supplies, etc.)? Describe these areas.  There are some books located at the back and they are arranged properly. They also have chalk box in the front beside the table. 2. Are there rules and procedures posted in the room? List them down.  Wear your foot socks.  Cleaners of the Day. 3. Did the students participate in making the classroom rules? If yes, and the resource teachers is available, ask him/her to describe the process.  Their teacher said that most of the students are following the rules but some of the students are not. For those who are not following the rules based on her, she gave punishment for those students. 4. What are the daily routines done by the teacher? (prayer, attendance, assignment of monitors, warm-up activities, etc.) How they are done?  The teacher started the classes by the opening prayer that is done by the prayer leader, to be followed by greetings from the teacher and the students. Next is the attendance that is reported by the group leaders and the discussion part. 5. Is there a seating arrangement? What is the basis of this arrangement?  The students are seated by group and they are alternate boys, and girls.
Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 6. Observe the noise level in the classroom. How is this managed?  While the teacher is discussing, there are only soft noise come from the students because most of the students are listening. 7. If a learner is not following instructions or is off-task, what does the teacher do? Describe the behavior strategies use.  While the teacher is discussing and the students is too noisy, she will stop the discussion and after the few seconds the students are quiet. 8. What does the teacher do to reinforce positive behaviors? (behavior strategies)  The teacher reinforces the learners by giving a positive feedback to students answers. In every class, there are students that a teacher cannot easily get the attention while discussing specially when they are bored and there are some distractions on them. So as a teacher, you need to think more activities and you need to be energetic in class so you will get your students’ attention. Write your Observation Notes here:
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT MATRIX Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 Aspect of Classroom Management Description Effect on learners (to be filled up after you answer the analysis questions) 1. Specific Areas in the Classroom  The areas in the classroom are well organized.  The effect on the learners is that they will be easy to locate their different instruments they needed such as books and all other materials. 2. Classroom Rules  The classroom rules are reminded by the teacher in every point of time.  The effect on the learners is that they will be reminded of the rules so that they will not do any kind of act to oppose any of these. 3. Classroom Procedures  The teacher starts a little talk before the class discussion on the subject matter.  The effect on the learners is that the students will feel at ease and more comfortable with the class. 4.

My Analysis 1. How did the classroom organization and routines affect the learners’ behavior?  Because the students are familiarized with their daily routines and because of that some of them are bored, but the teacher can get the students attention by discussing energeticly with some activities. 2. What should the teacher have in mind when she/he designs the classroom organization and routines? What theories and principles should you have in mind?  She must think that he/she needs to be a energetic teacher and ready fo the question of his/her students. 3. Which behavior strategies were effective in managing the behavior of the learners? In motivating students? Why were they effective?  Having a good discussion and enjoyable activities because it can attract the students to be attentive in class. Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3
My Reflection/Insights 1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade/ year level do you see yourself? what routines and procedures would you consider for this level? Why?  I imagine my self teaching fourth year students in highschool. I do some routine and procedures and practices that can ready them in their college years. 2. Make a list of the rules you are likely to implement in this level. Why would you choose these rules?  Always copy lecture - so that my students will be responsible to take down notes on their lesson. 3. Should learners be in involved in making the class rules? Why? Yes to know about their thought and suggestion in the rules. Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3
Integrating Theory and Practice Directions: Read the items given below and encircle the correct answer. Classroom Management and Learning | LEARNING EPISODE 3 1.

A. “Those who were noisy today during seatwork will not be allowed to play games in the computer later” B. “If it takes you longer to finish the seatwork because the time is wasted with Chatting, then we won’t have time to go to the playground anymore” C. “Those who are well-behaved in class will be given plus 5 points in the quiz” D. “ If you get a grade of 95 or higher in the first two assignments, you will be exempted from the 3rd assignment” 2. Learners are more likely to internalize and follow classroom rules when A. The teacher clearly explains the rules she prepared B. The learners know the punishments for not following the rules C. The learners participate in the rule-making process D. The teacher gives additional points for those who follow the rules 3. For a teacher to establish and maintain consistent standards of learners’ behavior, they should do all EXCEPT: A. Give immediate feedback to reinforce appropriate behavior of learners B. Be open to exceptions each time a learner misbehaves in class C. Communicate and enforce school policies and procedures clearly and Consistently D. Handle behavior problems promptly and with due respect to leaners’ rights
