SCHOOL’S NARRATIVE REPORT ABOUT THE LEARNING ACTION CELL (LAC) AS A K TO

12 BASIC EDUCATION PROGRAM’S SCHOOL-BASED CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING

Pursuant to Department Order No. 35, s. 2016 entitled “The Learning Action Cell (LAC)
as a K to 12 Basic Education Program’s School-Based Continuing Professional
Development Strategy for the Improvement of Teaching and Learning,” Melchor B.
Burlaos Memorial High School conducted its training workshop last March 2 – 4, 2021.
The discussions encompassed strategies to improve students’ reading comprehension
as well as on becoming an innovative leader at school.

The emcee, Mr. Henry Rances started the programme with Philippine national anthem
conducted by Ms. Ma. Jessa Bercadez and a prayer led by Ms. Kimberly Balasa. The
participants were invigorated with an energizer led by MAPEH Teachers. The facilitators
were then enthusiastically introduced by the emcee.

The first facilitator introduced LRMDS Portal. He also introduced to the faculty some of
the most recent updates as regards to the portal. As the evaluative activity for his
session, he tasked the participants to access the portal and download any learning
material of their choice.

The second facilitator, Mr. Mc. Monrey C. Bayot tackled the issue of poor reading
comprehension among junior high school students. He first tried to interest the
participants with fun facts about the reading process. He then elaborated on the
differences between the terms reading, reading comprehension, and literacy. He also
discussed the severity of the problem in terms of reading comprehension levels among
junior high school students, not only at the school level, but also at a national level.
After detailing the problem, the facilitator had an interactive discussion with the
participants about the classroom strategies teachers could innovate and implement in
order to help decrease the number of students with low reading comprehension. To test
the participants’ knowledge and understanding gained from the discussion, the
facilitator provided a collaborative activity where they had to utilize the various
comprehension strategies discussed by the facilitator in order to answer questions from
a provided selection accurately.

The third facilitator, Mrs. Carol D. Laconsay discussed about “Transforming Educators to
Great 21st Century Innovation Leaders.” She opened the discussion with the adage, “A
teacher inspiring to teach without passion is like ironing with a cold iron.” She then
discussed the importance of innovation at school. Lastly, she enumerated and
elaborated some of the most commonly known innovative strategies in teaching.
Mr. Alfredo P. David gave his closing remarks. Certificates of recognition and
appreciation were handed out to the facilitators and participants.

Attached herewith is the documentation of the whole session.
