PRAYER OF A STUDENT TEACHER

Dear Lord,

Lord, as I begin our day I pray that you would fill us with your holy spirit. Thank you for all the love, blessings and unique gifts you give to us. Thank you for providing us all we need, for forgiving us from our sins and for showing us our worthiness. Thank you for guiding our family and protecting us from danger and evil.

Give me wisdom and strength to teach my students and do my job well. Give me courage to teach them with love and patience and grace to cover my imperfections because I believe that this is what you call me to do. I am not perfect but I pray that may I teach them the things they need to know.

Lord, please bless my students with wisdom, understanding, and a heart that is excited to learn. All I want is to help them shape their minds and future. Please, help me to encourage the students to learn  and help those who cannot cope with our lesson. Stand beside me through each day, as I teach and guide my students and help me as a teacher to find their light and way.

And so I ask for your guidance, Lord that may I do my part, for characters and confidence

And happiness of heart

Amen.

CREDO

I believe that I can be a good example of teacher to my students.

I believe that every student have unique skills, talents and different ways of learning.

I believe that a teacher must have serenity to accept and appreciate each student and love all the imperfections of the students.

I believe that a teacher must have caring heart, patience, understanding and always praise the works of each student.

I believe that all children have an opportunity to learn and have the right to quality education.

I believe that a teacher must teach his/her students with values and encourage them to have a heart to learn.

I believe that education is the passport to the future and the key for success.

I believe that it is more important that we educate not only the mind but their hearts.

PERSONAL EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

                    Education is the key to success in life. Many say that it is only the treasure that our parent can give us. It is our passport and the key to unlock the golden door of future. It is a weapon that can transform our life and have a good life. For me, it is a gift that no one can get it from me.

                    In reality, teachers nowadays teach because of income however, we should teach not for income but to teach with passion and a heart. We should inspire and motivate our students to learn and realizes that life is beautiful. We should educate them how to think, but never forget to educate their character and heart. As I’ve read in the readings of Aristotle that educating their minds without educating the heart is no education at all. Values and good character is the most important you can teach your students. You must know how to respect your students and other people in able for them to respect you. Educate them the word “respect” and being “honest”. As a teacher, educating students is non-sense if they have only intelligence. They must have character, which is our aim. We can be their friend, mother, sister and the one who can talk to, building harmonious relationship as a teacher and as a student is important and in order to have learning. Teaching must begin with motivation and inspiration. Teachers must express self-confidence and enthusiasm to his/her students. Teachers must guide and facilitate the students. Teachers must do their best and exert effort to have quality education for them. Regardless of differences, they have the right to learn. We must use different strategies and approaches to establish an active learning. We must make every subject relevant to their real life situations. We must give them something to do and yet to learn. It will enhance not only their critical thinking skills, but on how to construct with their own learning and understanding. It must be student centered but they must be guided and facilitated. We must help them to discover their strengths and weaknesses. We must teach and treat them fairly.

                     Children’s nowadays is different compared before; they all need deep patience, support and understanding. Never stop educating them and inspiring them. We must prepare ourselves in teaching in 21^st century, which is a challenge for future teachers.

6. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE OF PRACTICE TEACHING

A Brief History of  Sta. Peregrina High School

            Building a high school in Balatong B., Pulilan, Bulacan was conceptualized last April 1989. This project was carefully planned by Hon. Mayor Aurelio S.  Plamenco, with full cooperation of six Barangay Chairman of the neighboring barangays. They surveyed and gathered the names of hundreds of elementary graduates who belong to indigenous families whose parents had a meager income to send their children in private secondary schools.

            The six (6) Barangay Captains who initiated the actions were:

            Reynaldo Reyes of Brgy. Tinejero

            Antonio Telles of Brgy. Balatong A.

            Maximo San Pedro of Brgy. Balatong B.

            Dionisio Joson of Brgy. Peñabatan

            George Santos of Brgy. Sta. Peregrina

            Pablo de Guzman of Brgy. Inaon

            Sta. Peregrina High School was built to answer the growing needs of the people from the remote barangays that could accommodate its hundreds of Grade VI pupils from the three public elementary schools: Inaon Elementary School, Sta. Peregrina Elementary School and Balatong Elementary School. Linkage between Local Government headed by Pulilan Mayor Aurelio S. Plamenco and the Barangay Chairman was strengthened by their determination to put dreams into reality. They pass multitudes of blockades in order to have a public high school in the barrio.

            In the year 1989 to 1992 SPHS had problems in location since Barangay Balatong B. was strategically located at the center of the six barangays, it was agreed upon to have it been built in Balatong B. however, no budget had been granted or solicited, so temporarily it was hosed within the compound of Sta. Peregrina Elementary School and allotted two classrooms. Nevertheless, the 2^nd to 3^rd batch had much difficulty due to lack no facilities.

            They experience rendering classes under the mango trees. They also held classes in the Brgy. Hall and Health Center.

            1993 was the most blessed year for SPHS because this was the year of exodus. Parents of Batch 1989-1993 agreed to contribute ₱100 each to be able to purchase a lot. However, the owner of the lot died and just donated the lot for the betterment of the community.

            With the consolidated effort of the six barangays and the municipal Mayor they asked assistance from DECS Division of Bulacan which was headed by then Superintendent Bienvenido F. Yap. He determined the suitability hygienic condition of the school, and also he recommended the acquisition of proper school site. The cost construction of the building and the special funds from Japan JICA and the approval of the DECS were miraculously activated at that time. And the birth of SPHS building with one office, one laboratory, one TLE room, one Library, and four classrooms with a grandeur of 10,00 sq. meter ground and probably the most convenient school building in Pulilan, Bulacan.

            From 1989-2000, Mrs. Ederlinda P. dela Cruz, acted as the principal, she served for almost 11 years. However, on July 3, 2000 the Department of Education has called Mr. Roberto A. Toledo to assume the position of the Officer-in-Charge. He indeed exercises visionary leadership and highly responsive to the emerging needs of Sta. Peregrina High School. He was followed by Mr. Efren Santiago, Mrs. Cynthia C. Centeno and Mrs. Teresa P. Garcia. At present, SPHS is managed by Mr. Roberto A. Cristobal as principal.

            Sta. Peregrina High School has grown tremendously. Its former annex Engr. Virgilio V. Dionisio Memorial High School is now operating on its own. This school was conceptualized and supported by Hon. Vice Governor Josie dela Cruz and Brgy. Captain Baby Evangelista. Presently, Bajet-Castillo High School located at Longs, Pulilan is SPHS’s new annex.

REFLECTION:

                   Sta. Peregrina High School is located at Balatong B., Pulilan, Bulacan. In our time, it was managed by Mrs. Cynthia C. Centeno. This is the school where I graduated high school. It is near our house so no hassle. The schedule of the school is shifting because of lack of classrooms. But now, there is new building but still working on it. School facilities and environment is conducive to learning of students. I'm glad that this is the school I chose, we are very welcome and accepted. I have no adjustments because most of the teachers here are my former teachers when I am in high school before. For me, this school is really an inspiration and a big help for the students in fulfilling their dreams in life..

7. EXAMPLES OF LESSON PLANS USED (DETAILED/SEMI-DETAILED/BRIEF)

REFLECTION:

                     A teacher’s weapon is his/her lesson plan. You cannot teach without preparing and writing a lesson plan. 

                    It help us developed our self-confidence. It inspires us to improve our further lessons and it provides guidance for teachers what to teach. It is useful to us to have an organized classroom setting. It helps us to be cleared of objectives needed to be achieved. When there is no lesson plan, teaching becomes more difficult. So, it is really required that you have time to write the lesson plan. It will be our guide to use our time effectively and efficiently. As a teacher, using lesson plan we always indicate what to be covered and for how long. Everything is managed and planned. It helps us to prepare all the materials needed for the lesson. Availability of instructional materials is important. It gives us ideas on what a teacher should expect from the students. It will prevent lack of preparedness for a lesson, instead, students will be guided and motivated.

                    Creating effective lesson plan is the key to effective teaching. We should know and practice the proper planning of lessons, mastered the subject matter and execution of proper mode of delivery in classroom.

Below are the examples of lesson plan I used in the field of my Practice Teaching. My cooperating teacher want semi-detailed lesson plan than detailed lesson plan.

8. EVIDENCE OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH

REFLECTION:

“Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth.” – Muhammad Ali

          A community service was held at Brgy. Tinejero, Pulilan, Bulacan last September 15, 2017. Araling Panlipunan, Science, TLE and Mathematics departments prepared a community outreach to help and serve joy to children and other people in barangay. Together with the co-student teachers, teachers of the school and officials of barangay, we successfully did the feeding program. To complete the service, we lead and prepared games for childrens. Their smile will be not complete if there is no prizes. 

          Community service wasn’t a painful or boring experience; it was very enjoyable and beneficial experience. It is a great feeling that you reserve your time to be with the people you didn’t know. I just remembered the saying of Mother Theresa that if you can’t feed a hundred people, then just feed one. Inspired of her, we must give our hands to serve and our hearts to love. I thank God for a wonderful experience that I volunteer to lend my hand for others. We have two hands, one is to help ourselves and the other to help other people. Community service builds harmonious relationships with others and friendship. I am happy that once in my life I have served other people even in a simple way and participate in this kind of community service.

          Happiness is to serve joy to others, when you see them smiling that is so priceless. It is not always the time you need in service but a heart. We must share our blessings and all that we have, the more we share, the more we have. That is when you share happiness to other people.

9. OBSERVATION AND EVALUATION FORMS

REFLECTION:

This is only the observation and evaluation form I have. My cooperating teacher observed me before my final demonstration teaching. This is a big help for me because I see what I need to improve in my performance. His feedbacks are useful for me to enhance my teaching skills. Teaching us to learn from our mistakes, and make a change of it. Just accept weaknesses and have room for improvement.

10. BEST LESSON PLAN USING CREATIVE STRATEGY WITH THE COMPLETE SET OF MATERIALS

REFLECTION:

                    Lesson plan is very important for teachers and learners. It is a road map which serves as a clear procedure to follow. It makes you feel confident what and how to teach the lesson.  It is important that you guided your students. It is one way to make teaching organized and manage the time well. It helps teachers for mastery of the subject and avoiding repetition. It helps teachers to relate the previous lesson to a new one. It is also one way to make the delivery of lesson smooth and cleared. This serves as guide for teacher’s execution and delivery of the lesson.  Instructional materials are also used as a support and teachers needed those to make teaching and learning of the students meaningful. We should be a great writer and planner of our lesson. 

Below is the detailed lesson plan I used in my final demonstration teaching last November 6, 2017. For me, this is the best lesson plan I used where I exert all my efforts. 

Below are the instructional materials I used in my final demonstration teaching. significant because it supports your teaching to make it meaningful.

11. SAMPLE OF LEARNERS WORK AND FEEDBACK

LEARNER'S WORK:

REFLECTION:

          A teacher must have serenity to accept each student and appreciate their unique skills and talents. We must accept their imperfections and must always praise their works. Every student can learn but always remember not on the same way. Being a teacher, you have to be patient, I encounter that not all student do their activities, homework and projects. However, don’t judge them; you must know the reason behind that situation. Not all student have the same skills, some are good in academic while some are good in art. Don’t compare their works, learn to praise their works. As a teacher, you must guide and teach them when they cannot cope with the activities you give to them. As a future teacher, we must encourage them to do hardwork.

          Using learner’s output is very useful; it will be one of  the basis of their performance and understanding. But what I have observed the students are better able to tailor their efforts to produce a product than satisfies the expectations of the teacher. As a teacher, we should be careful in judging works of students. The feedback should focus on the product or performance and not on the person. It is one way to say on how to improve his/her performance.

          We should teach our children, “Learning by doing” according to John Dewey. It is better if more on application and hands on. For them to be able to construct their own understanding and learning.

JINGLE PRESENTATION

LEARNER'S FEEDBACK:

REFLECTION:

          According to Bill Gates, “We all need people who will give us feedback. That’s how we improve.” As we get more feedback, either positive or negative, that’s the way for us to be motivated and improve.

             As I read all the feedback of my students, I felt mixed emotions. I can’t explain what I feel that time. I realized that even this profession is difficult for me, my student made me feel that I AM A TEACHER. I know I am not a perfect teacher, but I really appreciated their love for me. The way they say that I’m worthwhile, that I deserve to be successful, that they learn from me, that they will miss me so much really breaks my heart. Happiness is knowing that your students learn from you. I have many realizations when I am in the field of practice teaching. At first, I don’t really want to be a teacher but my students really inspired me to continue this chosen profession. I love the way they treat me, I love the way we build friendships. I love the way they treated me as their teacher, friend, sister and their second parent. I am thankful that they really appreciated my efforts just to teach them. 

               It is the best feeling I have received from my students, I thought they wouldn’t like me. But I get wrong; they want me to stay there. It is good to hear that I have inspired them and made them realize that the subject, “Araling Panlipunan” is not boring. It is very interesting and full of excitement to teach. Because of them, I really enjoy the field even though there are difficulties, I survive it!

12. TITLES AND BRIEF SYPNOPSIS OF PROFESSIONAL READINGS AND REFERENCES  

a. Photocopy of articles/Professional Readings 

b.Format of Sypnosis

           i. Introduction  

          According to William A. Ward, the mediocre teacher tells, the good teacher explains, the superior teacher demonstrates but a great teacher inspires. Teachers must love teaching in able her students to love learning. A great teacher teaches from his/her heart and not only depending on what is written in a book. Teaching is not easy profession; some says teachers teach because of their income, however, great teachers do have real passion to teaching and a heart for learning. Great teacher must show kindness, love and care to students, parents and those who are around him. Teach our students how to respect people and good attitude. Great teachers accept individual’s differences and know how to put herself on the shoes of other person.

              ii. Summary/Discussion 

              Great teachers give more importance to attitude to students, work and subject than knowledge and skills. Great teachers work hard and tirelessly to give students a quality education and nurturing them to grow. Great teachers are passionate people, they love their job/work, they really enjoy as a teacher and they really love teaching his/her students. But what does a great teacher is?

·         Great teachers have high expectations, he/she believes that all students can learn and to work hard even they have different skills and abilities.

·         Great teachers have mastered the subject matter, the knowledge about the content of what to teach and must know different strategies and approaches to make teaching effective and efficient.

·       Great teachers are empathetic. Great teacher put herself on the shoes of another. They ask and show care on what’s going on the lives of students.

·       Great teacher is a happy and approachable person. A great teacher leaves his personal problems in the house and outside the school. She/he doesn’t want to affect his mood of teaching.

·        Great teachers is an innovator, doesn’t only focus on a single strategy. He makes new ways, methods, and strategies to ensure that his students will understand the lesson. Creativity and innovation are the hallmarks of being a great teacher.

·      Great teachers seeks new ideas and skills that will improve his performance to provide students a quality education, also doesn’t afraid of learning new strategies.

            As you enter the classroom, the important thing you needed is a passion to teach and a heart to love every students you will meet. Teachers must have a sense of humor, sets as a good example to students and other people. Teachers must maintain his/her professionalism, always help people having difficulties and learn to understand people. Great teachers must learn to build harmonious relationships to his students, it is a big help to transform their futures. Make your students feel that they are important and loved

            .iii. Reaction/Reflection Geoffrey Canada says that, “When you see a great teacher, you are seeing a work of art.” Enthusiasm, creativity, innovations, empathy, resilience, passion, commitment, patience, love, care and respect are the proofs that you are a great teacher. Being a great teacher isn’t hard as you have passion to teach and love for your students. 

                 As I read this article, one word comes to my mind, the word “builder”, because we build relationship, friendship and a community. This article enlightened As I read this article, one word comes to my mind, the word “builder”, because we build relationship, friendship and a community. This article enlightened me what a great teacher is. We should build good relationship to our students; it is a key for their willingness to learn. We should help students having difficulties, guide and facilitate them. We should be compassionate- show concern and understand people. We should be optimistic person; we should look always on the bright side. Don’t let our problems affect the mood of our teaching, those problems should be left outside of the school doors. Empathy is also one of the characteristics of being a great teacher; you put yourself in the shoes of another. Thinking how if you are the one who experience that situation, what will happen? It has a big impact on your actions and decisions. Great teacher is fearless of innovations, very brave to face and try new strategies and approaches that will help to improve and enhance skills, knowledge and teaching. We must respect people in able for them to respect us, as I’ve said earlier to show professionalism. In reality, teachers teach because of money or income, but we must not forget that we must do our best to provide our children a quality education that they need. We must plan what to teach, must have mastery of the subject matter, think of suitable methods of teaching. We must love our job, and it must show.

                  Learning of students must begin with inspiration and motivation. Great teachers must inspire his students to learn and work hard. Educators must have whole passion for teaching and learning. We must demonstrate enthusiasm and self-confidence. Display warmth and compassion to students, that’s the way they feel loved. Students are having differences, fairness and consistency is important. Great teachers encourage students to work hard and helping children in fulfilling their dreams in life.

13. DAILY SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCES IN THE COOPERATING SCHOOL

          Experience is the best teacher. Everyday is a challenge for teachers. Stress and lack of sleep but worth it when you see your students are learning from you. You always have to prepared lesson plans, visual aids or any instructional materials that will support your teaching. Mastery of the subject matter is very needed. But keep on smiling when teaching, don't feel so stress, just enjoy!

DATE	ACTIVITIES/EXPE-RIENCES	STRATEGIES/METHODS/TECH-NIQUES OBSERVED	LEARNING/INSIGHTS
September 5, 2017	It was my first day in cooperating school where I assigned.  My cooperating teacher and I talked about the report of my practice teaching. Then, because it is my first day, he introduced me to his students. I was sitting at the back to observe him first.	In celebrating the “National Heroes Day”, he asked the students to choose one hero they admire. A picture of a hero is pasted in a cardboard together with its contribution and explanation why they really admire his/her.	With this activity, the students will have knowledge regarding the event and heroes who sacrificed their lives. It will develop their minds and creativity.
September 7, 2017	I came early to cooperating school. In two sections, my cooperating teacher is the one who teach them. Then, the left sections I am the one who discussed the topic. Also, I was assigned to check the activities of Grade 7.	The strategy used is through group activity. Each group will analyze data of population of the countries in Asia regards with the different task card assigned to them. Their analysis of data can be shown through graphs and charts. Cooperative Learning is also used in this activity because they work together and help each other to finish the said activity.	It is good that I used cooperative learning. It is an excellent way to allow my students to think critically and they learn from each other. It is not only their learning skills are developed but also their social skills.
September 8, 2017	I also came early to cooperating school. I continued the report of students about analysis of data of populations of the countries in Asia.	The strategy used is cooperative learning where they have a group activity in which they will analyze data and show it through graphs and chart. I prepared and asked questions to deepen their understanding.	Team skills is develop to the students. They enjoyed working for each other. Through group activity, they can work easily together.
September 11, 2017	I logged at 6  o’clock in the morning. On this day, I gave pre-test to students. I discussed them about kabihasnan and sibilisasyon through speech balloon and cluster map. My cooperating teacher asked me to help him to finish the item analysis of periodical test of seven section of grade 7.	The strategy used is through graphic organizer, it is a learning tool that will help students to better understand the topic. It will help students to organize their different ideas to answers given questions. Constructive learning was also used here. They learn to construct their own understanding about “kabihasnan” and “sibilisayon.”	In using cluster map, the students will be able to express their own thoughts   and ideas about the topic and will able to construct ideas on their own.
September 12, 2017	There is a suspension of classes due to bad weather.
September 14, 2017	The activity for today is named, “Larawan-suri”. The students will analyze pictures related to the topic “Yugto ng Panahon”. I gave them activity which   is photo essay. Then, after my class, I continued the item analysis of the left sections.	I used interactive teaching strategy in which there is an interaction of student with the teacher. I asked questions to test if the students follow and understand the lesson. Ask questions which can be relate to their real life situations.	I learn that teaching should be always student centered in able the students to develop their critical thinking and engage them in analytic discussion. Pictures makes student more active.
September 18, 2017	*absent
September 19, 2017	The students will watch video related to “Sinaunang Kabihasnan sa Asya”.	I used interactive video where I ensure my students are actively involved in the discussion. Through the help of video, students will have advanced knowledge of what will be tackled.	Students nowadays are more willing to watch videos from social media. As a future teacher, we must encourage them to watch educational videos to enhance their knowledge.
September 22, 2017	On this day, there is only continuation of the discussion to other sections. They watched video related with the topic.	I also used interactive video, where they are enjoying watching and I make sure they will actively participate and understand the lesson.	Another insight is we must mix our strategy with using technology but in a very positive way.
September 25, 2017	Activities are data information chart about “Kabihasnang Sumer, Indus, Shang at mga Mahahalagang Kontribusyon nito.” Today, we have a game which is Pinoy Henyo in which the categories are religion, tradition, philosophy and beliefs. It is for the discussion of the next topic. Another activity is entitled, “A Letter to a Principal.”Then, during my break time I helped my cooperating school to review his contestant for the ASEAN Quiz Bee.	Chart is used as an activity in able for the student to seek for answers and not always relying on the teacher. Then, a game was also used so students will not remain passive but they are actively participating in the class discussion. A reflection to reflect about the lesson, what their thought, feelings and opinions. There is integration between the teacher and students. They are able to construct their own understanding and meanings.	Students are very active when you combine your teaching with games. They are more actively involved when educational games are used. Sometimes, it is good if you’ll give them time to reflect about the lesson. You have to let them express their own thoughts and opinions.
September 26,2017	On this day, Araling Panlipunan Coordinator asked me if she can use my time today. She gave diagnostic test to grade 7 students, and then I help her for item analysis and checking of test papers.

October 9, 2017	Before I start the lesson, they watch documentary about China. I discussed about “Dinastiya sa Tsina”.	Using video or documentary, students will have advance knowledge about the topic. Then, they will not only watch but after they will give their insights/ideas about what they have watched. You ask questions to them or called socratic method. It is more on HOTS questions to deepen their understanding.	Videos or documentary are effective to student’s learning. They love watching, as long as the video is not boring. They reflect on what they’ve watched.

15. A PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN OR CAREER PLAN

                   I believe that as long you do everything with faith and passion, together with hardwork, you can get anything you want here on earth. I never thought I would be a teacher in the future. I admit that I never dream this profession, but when I am in the field of practice teaching, my students inspired me to continue this chosen career. Yes, it is difficult, stress, lack of sleep and sickness you will get on it. But I really believe that God made this way to say that it is what He calls me to do. Graduation is near, I’m so blessed and thankful that from those struggless and challenges I survived with the help of God, family and friends. Without them, I cannot do it successfully.

                   My plans after taking this course, is to have more experiences regardless of teaching. I want to have room for my improvement and enhancement. I want to apply in a private school or if there is available I will apply in public high school as a senior high school teacher. If I am hired as a senior public high school teacher, I have 5 years to pass the board exam. While working, I will take a review for Licensure Examination for Teachers. My target review center is Philippine Normal University. I hope and I wish I could pass the board exam and  I’ll do my best to pass it. When I passed the board exam, I will take Master’s Degree. While working, I will save my money for future. All I want is to have my family a successful and a happy life. I want to help my parent in financial. After helping them, I want to enjoy life with my family. For the last, when life is stable that I can stand on my own feet, I want to have my own family,having business, establish own property and to travel with my loveones.

                    It is not the end, it’s just a beginning. I thank God for always guiding me and giving me strength to surpass all the challenges I encountered. I will try my best to be an effective and efficient teacher in the future. Everyone dreaming of being successful, I just dream of happiness and being contented is enough.
