Notice

Using Robert Gagne’s Events of Instruction, what did you notice in the following
segments of learning:

How did the students react to the activities/various elements to arouse

their interest?

Students reacted differently to the activities and various instructions.

There were students who prefer learning games to lectures. There were some
students who asked questions and actively participated through sharing their
ideas and insights. Of course, there were some students who were shy and prefer
group and pair activities.

Were the students focused when you were stating the learning
objectives at the beginning of the lesson?

Yes, students were all listening attentively because I already caught

their attention at the beginning of the lesson. I have prepared presentation and
they were able to read the objectives clearly while explaining these with them.
 How did the new learnings relate with what they really know?
New learnings can be applied and relate with what they already know.
Students can focus on the relevance of the new knowledge they have gained to the
prior knowledge. In this way, learners can generalize, reflect and self-explain the
concepts and ideas they have learned and know. They can also identify the gaps of
their prior learning with the new learnings.

Did you notice some students who needed assistance? What did you do?

Yes, there were students who needed assistance that is why I employed
pair and group activities. In this way, students who were shy and not confident to
asks questions and share ideas on discussion can do so on peer teaching and group
tasks.

Did the students find difficulty in applying the theories/concepts

learned to real life?

Not really, students had the chance to apply what they have learned in
composing essay through its correct structure. As a student teacher, I was able to
give students to collaborate and learn from each other where they can apply
concepts they have learned in real-life such as collaboration and multidisciplinary team
experience. I was also able to develop activities that relate deeper relationships and similar
organizing of ideas.

How did your students react to your feedback?

Students reacted to my feedback positively, they accepted my opinions

and suggestions wholeheartedly on how they can improve their outputs based
from my constructive criticisms.

What pieces of evidence can prove that the students had retention of
learning?

I was able to know that students had retention of learning because they were able
to compose an essay using its correct structure through the assignment I have
given. They were able to create a good thesis statement of their essay, although
 there were some inevitable grammatical errors, at least they know the parts and
elements in writing an essay.

Analyze

After planning your lesson you may be requested by your Resource Teacher to
deliver the lessons. Your Resource Teacher will use classroom observation sheet
to evaluate the delivery of your lesson. Schools use different tools in rating
classroom/online observations.

Reflect

Having implemented several lessons in your Cooperating School under the

supervision of your Cooperating Teacher, in what areas of the lesson do you need to
improve?
The areas of the lesson that I need to improve is on providing learning
guides. I have to improve my presentation to engage my students on the topic Also,
in gaining the attention of the students although I caught their attention in the
beginning, I need to continue this until we finish the discussion. Gaining the
attention of the students will help them increase their focus and prevent their
disruptive behavior. In that way, I can easily employ my instructional strategies and
learning management plan, distractions can also reduce.

Write Action Research Prompts

OBSERVE
1. Problems/challenges I encountered in delivering my lessons are
student engagement and motivation on the topic

REFLECT
2. I hope to achieve to address these problems and challenges by asking
assistance with my Resource Teacher about their suggestions and tips
on how can I engage well my students
 PLAN
3. Some strategies/solutions/means that I can employ to improve these
situations/problems is to watch tutorials on YouTube and read different
articles.

PLAN
4. Based on my answers in no.1-3, the possible title of the action research
on this episode is Facilitating Student Engagement and Motivation
Through Educational Technology.

To further enrich my knowledge on delivering my instruction whether in the

classroom or in remote learning, these are some of the online resources which will
help me in these activities include books, websites, YouTube videos and the like and
share these to your peers.)

Parts/Components of an Essay

An essay is a piece of writing that is written

to provide information about a certain topic
or simply to convince the reader. In every
effective essay writing, there are three
major parts: introduction, body, and
essay conclusion.

 The introduction. This is where the

subject or topic is introduced. The
big picture, points, and ideas are
briefly written here.
 The body. All the main ideas,
 topics, and subject are discussed
here in details. This also includes
evidence or information that support
the essay.
 The conclusion. The last part of an
essay and usually summarizes the
overall topic or ideas of an essay.

Okay, this is the hamburger method to

easily remember the parts of an essay. That
is the reason why I also ask you a question
about hamburger. Is it clear?

How to Write the Introduction Essay?

The introduction is the door to the whole Yes, Sir.

essay outline. It must be convincing enough
to get the attention of the readers. The
following are the guidelines for writing the
introduction of the essay.

 It must contain an attention-getter

sentence or statement.
 The introduction must sound
interesting to capture the attention
of the reader.
 You can quote a statement about a
topic or something related to the
whole point of your essay.
 The intro must move from general
to specific.
 At the end, there must be a thesis
statement that gives an insight to the
 author’s evidence.

What Does the Body of an Essay

Contain?

The body is the longest part of the essay

and commonly highlights all the topics and
ideas. The body must include the following:

 The evidence and supporting details

of the expository essay in addition
to the author’s ideas.
 A topic or sentences that link the
discussion back to the thesis
statement.
 The logical ordering of the ideas.
The chronological of time, ideas,
and evidence.
 A set of transition statements or
sentences to create a good flow of
the essay.
 Sufficient examples, evidence, data,
and information that must be
relevant to the particular topic of the
essay.

The Conclusion of the Essay

The conclusion is the last part of the essay,

and should:

 Emphasize on the major takeaways

of the essay.
 Wrap up and summarize the essay,
as well as the arguments, ideas, and
points.
 Restate the main arguments in a
simplified and clear manner that
must be understood by the reader.
 Guarantee that the reader is left with
something to think about, especially
the main point of your essay.
The Elements of an Essay

 Thesis statement. It is the main

proposition of an essay. The thesis
statement must be arguable that
differentiates it from a fact and must
be in a persuasive writing style.
 Problem or question. The problem
statements or the important issue of
the essay that must be defined and
described in the essay.
 Motive. The reason for writing the
essay.
 Evidence. The facts and data or
information that supports the whole
essay and prove the main point of
the essay.
 Analysis & reflection. In which the
writer turns the evidence into an
arguable statement that provides the
reader how the evidence supports,
develops, or explained the essay’s
thesis statement.
 Structure. The work that the writer
does to organize the idea, the series
of sub-topics and sections through
which it is explained and developed.
