 All mineral resources in
public and private lands
within the territory and
exclusive economic zone of
the Republic of the
Philippines are owned by
the State. It shall be the
responsibility of the State to
promote their rational
exploration, development,
utilization and conservation
through the combined
efforts of government and
the private sector in order to
enhance national growth in
a way that effectively
safeguards the environment
and protect the rights of
affected communities.
 Solid Waste Management
(SWM) is considered to be
one of the most serious
environmental issues in the
Philippines. The annual
waste generation was
estimated at 10 million tons
in 2010 and this is expected
to rise by 40% in 2020. The
Republic Act (RA) 9003,
otherwise known as the
Ecological Solid Waste
Management Act of 2000,
provides the necessary
policy framework,
 institutional mechanisms
and mandate to the local
government unites (LGUs)
to achieve 25% waste
reduction through
establishing an integrated
solid waste management
plans based on 3Rs (reduce,
reuse and recycling).

Activity 2:
Make a reflection on this:
Do I contribute to any of the global issues? Am I part of the problem? Can I be part of the solution?
Yes we all do because we use plastics and other things, and this things causes polution. You can be part of
the solution by recycling the plastics you’ve used. You can reduce the amount of waste you produce by
purchasing products that come with less packaging and/or come in packaging that can be recycled and
compost it, did you know as much as 25% of the items in your trash could potentially be removed from the
waste stream and composted in your back yard? Your fruit and vegetable scraps, egg shells, coffee grounds,
grass clippings, and leaves can all be composted. While composting requires more effort than the previously
mentioned lifestyle changes, it will provide you with a beneficial return on your investment of time and
effort. Depending on the conditions, you may have compost in 3 to 12 months to use in your garden. You’ll
save on fertilizers and if you grow your own vegetables, you’ll likely see improved yields. The organic
matter will also act as a sponge to absorb more water, meaning you might not need to water your plants as
much, saving you money and time.

CHAPTER 6

Activity 1:

1. In what way am I involved in school and community partnership? What good have I done to school
and Community? What else can I do?
Reach Out to All Stakeholders
One of the best ways to connect and create an authentic bond is to go to the people who matter most, and
meet them on their own turf. A series of community walks are a great way to start.
Get your teachers, some local businesses on board and go and knock on people's doors, visit local businesses
and senior homes and talk with them. Try the same approach with groups of students. This time let the
students communicate what they hope and wish for their school and encourage them to ask for mentoring
and support.
Share your dreams for enhanced community-school partnerships, ask people what matters to them, ask them
how they might help, and show them your passion. Deliver them an open invitation to reconnect, collaborate
and share their experience, skills and time to make a difference.

2. Research on successful school and partnerships in high performing countries like Finland, Singapore
and Canada.
 Hong Kong, driven by a diverse population with ever-changing needs, has refocused its education
system to mesh with its international economic goals. Explore the policies that pushed them to the
top.
 Japan’s students work harder and learn more than students in almost any other country. Discover
how Japan has relieved student pressure without decreasing student performance.
 Estonia emerged as a top performer on PISA 2012 — a remarkable achievement for a country that
only gained independence in 1992. Find out how changing Estonia’s education system contributed to
the economic development of the whole country.
CHAPTER 7

Activity 1

1. Your mayor has a teacher candidate for a teaching position. Your ranking is over. Your mayor’s
candidate Was not part of the ranking and is not a licensed teacher. As a professional teacher, what
would you do?

Wait for another opportunity.There are things that we are not in control of. Perhaps it is
not our time yet. I will advice the candidate to think positive and never be disappointed
on not being part of the ranking because everything that happens is with God's plan.
Double the hardwork and everything will be worth it.

2. Cite at least 3 specific ethical behaviors of a professional teacher base on Article III of the Code of
Ethics For Professional Teachers.. Come up with a power point presentation or a skit.
 Character traits, including perseverance, honesty, respect, lawfulness, fairness, patience, and unity.
As an educator, teachers must treat every student with kindness and respect without showing any
favoritism, prejudice or partiality.
 Teachers must maintain confidentiality unless a scenario warrants involvement from parents, school
administration, or law enforcement, and never use relationships with students for a personal gain.
 Educators must commit wholly to the teaching profession itself. A classroom should promote safety,
security, and acceptance, and should always avoid bullying, hostility, neglect, dishonesty or
offensive conduct. Teachers must accurately describe their qualifications, licenses, and credentials to
education boards or administration offices that look to hire them.
