Gabay sa Magulang/Tagapag-alaga

Ang modyul na ito ay sinulat upang higit na magkaroon ng kamalayan ang

inyong mag-aaral tungkol sa kahalagahan ng kanyang mga karanasan sa paaralan at
komunidad, positibo man o negatibo ang mga ito. Sa tulong ng modyul na ito, makikita
ng mag-aaral na ang mga “challenging experiences” ay maaaring maging “learning
experiences.” Inaasahan na maibabahagi niya ang kanyang natutunan sa kanyang
mga kapwa-tao lalo na sa mga katulad niyang mag-aaral. Sa pamamagitan nito, mas
malilinang ang kakayahan ng mag-aaral at kanyang mapapagtanto na ang mga
karanasan na ito ay may malaking tulong sa pagkamit niya ng pang-akademikong
tagumpay. Ito ay dinesenyo para sa “distance learning” o alternatibong pamamaraan
ng pagkatuto na hindi nangangailangan ng pisikal na presensya sa paaralan, bilang
tugon sa direktiba na pagkansela ng “face-to-face class” dulot ng pandemyang COVID-
19.
Maaaring may mga pagkakataon na hihingiin ng inyong mag-aaral ang inyong
patnubay sa pagsunod sa mga tagubilin at pagsagot sa mga tanong sa bawat bahagi
ng mga gawain at maging sa pagkakaroon ng mga kakailanganing materyales base
sa nakatakdang gawain. Hinihiling ng Kagawaran ang inyong suporta upang
matagumpay niyang maisakatuparan ang mga gawaing ito. Ang araling ito ay
makakatulong upang hubugin ang kanyang kabutihan na tanggapin ang pagkakaiba-
iba ng bawat tao sa katangian, kakayahan, damdamin at pananaw. Tiyakin na
sasagutin niya ang bawat bahagi ng modyul nang tapat hangga't maaari, kapag siya
ay sumasagot sa mga gawain at pagtatasa.
Kinakailangan din ang long folder na magsisilbing Portfolio ng mag-aaral sa
Homeroom Guidance. Dito isisilid lahat ng gawaing natapos sa bawat bahagi ng
modyul. Tiyaking ito ay magagawa nang tapat at maipapasa sa petsa at oras na
itinakda ng kanyang Gurong-Tagapayo.
