Introduction
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio IV

“Experience gives us the tests first and the lesson later”


Education is a life-long learning process, and in order to become efficient and successful,
techniques, tactics, and teaching styles must be improved. This is the period for trial and error, as
well as building confidence and the beginning of expertise. It is no longer a time for perfection,
but rather for aiming for competence. Though field study is a process in which a potential
teacher proves to himself/herself and others that he/she has the resourcefulness to survive with
educators, he/she must first understand the value of continuous learning because this could be the
most effective tool in molding individuals into better and more competitive individuals.
The first important step in going from amateur to professional status is to put educational
ideas and procedures into reality through student teaching. Student teaching is, first and
foremost, a learning environment. This is the craft he or she must master before putting his or her
talents on display in his or her own classroom.
This is the student teacher's opportunity to learn from his or her mistakes without
endangering his or her students. As we all know, teaching is a noble career. This is the moment
for the student teacher to discover a genuine teaching environment. The prospect teacher obtains
new experiences that will serve as a credential in their journey. It takes a long time to prepare
and additional training sessions to be ready for the real world that awaits them in the near future.
Student teaching serves as an internship in the education profession where theories, knowledge,
attitudes, and abilities grow through course work and observation.

“MY BELIEFS IN TEACHING (PRE)”

When I think of my role as a teacher, one thing that comes to me is the relationships I've
established with my pupils. I appreciate talking with kids about topics and concerns that are
important to them and learning how they feel about and experience the world and the stuff that
we are covering in class. I want my classroom to be less of a class and more of a community,
where we can all share ideas, communicate, and learn from one another. This is one of the
reasons I chose to teach in the elementary grades; the pupils' innocence allows them to easily
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio VII

explain their own thoughts and feelings. I am a firm believer that if given the correct information
and tools, young people have the potential to create significant changes in the world.

I am very enthusiastic about working with elementary pupils. They are at the age when
they are just starting to evaluate who they are and where they want to go in life, and I feel that
this is one of the most critical phases in human growth. Elementary pupils are vulnerable; they
want for acceptance, encouragement, and acknowledgment, and their dreams can be destroyed
by a careless remark or a disappointing outcome. These characteristics bring a positive challenge
to the prospective of teaching in the elementary grades; I want to be a positive role model and
"cheerleader" for my pupils, as well as a listening ear, knowledgeable resource, and partner for
problem solving in class. I also want to give my students some autonomy in terms of the work
they complete in class; at this age, the majority of students want greater responsibility and
control over their own achievement. I want to provide them opportunity to practice these abilities
while they are in my class.

A healthy connection between an elementary teacher and pupils, in my opinion, is


founded on mutual understanding, respect, and trust. To assess students' goals and needs
effectively, teachers must first understand their pupils and where they are coming from. Because
not all students and parents will take the initiative, the teacher must be the first to open the doors
to healthy communication. He/she must also be willing to explain her personal expectations to
the class; having a genuine attitude toward his/her pupils and demonstrating compassion for both
their classwork and their life is essential. Mutual respect is formed when both the instructor and
the pupils comprehend each other's aims and points of view. Instructors and students both desire
and deserve respect as human beings and people; teachers also seek respect in the professional
sense, but they must tread carefully. I will be in a position of power as a teacher, but I do not
want to be an authoritarian or dictator.

I have the opportunity to be a companion to many of my pupils, but I don't want to go too
far. The writing teacher must be especially cautious to describe scenarios in which he or she may
have to break a student's trust in order to comply with the law, such as if pupils indicate via their
writing that they are being mistreated or that they are an accomplice in a crime.

My teaching beliefs are founded on what I know and have observed at this stage in life.
As a future educator, I am confident that my views on teaching will evolve. That is one of the
benefits of being human: we may make mistakes, learn new things, and make a positive
difference. I'm looking forward to the chances that await me.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio VIII

“MY BELIEFS IN TEACHING (POST)”

As a student and future teacher, I feel that keeping a high level of motivation in
the classroom is one of the most effective strategies to speed up the learning process. While
students have their own reasons for learning, we will play a critical part in assisting learners in
maintaining and increasing their motivation. Students' confidence can also be boosted
through innovative instructional methods. Showing learners how the class subject matter links to
their own lives and the actual world is part of creative teaching. This can assist them in gaining a
stronger sense of purpose. I believe that getting to know our potential students and knowing
about their backgrounds will assist us in developing the most relevant lesson plans. Tasks, in my
opinion, should be tough but doable for pupils. Students believe they are not developing in their
language acquisition if an assignment is not demanding enough. As a result, kids may get bored
and disengaged from the instruction. Students, on the other hand, may grow frustrated if tasks
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio IX

are too difficult. As a future teacher, we must also establish a favorable environment that
allows kids to learn more. Students' ability to learn will be hindered if they are afraid to
participate in class discussions. In the classroom, I believe it is necessary to create a
helpful and comfortable environment. I strive to accomplish this by encouraging students
and giving them plenty of positive feedback. Instead of whole-class discussions, I attempt
to personalize every lesson topic and construct pair and group exercises. Finally, continuous
reflection and review can aid in the upkeep of good teaching standards. We should be able to
reflect on and analyze our own teaching techniques on a regular basis. We may feel "stuck" in
our routines and less motivated to educate after working for a long time. We should strive to
attend different training sessions or webinars organized by our university or the Commission on
Higher Education in order to keep on track and learn about some of the latest trends in
education. We can also subscribe to a number of fantastic blogs that offer a variety of inspiring
lesson ideas.

Education is a life-long process of learning and to become an efficient and effective one,
the strategies, tactics and teaching styles must be upgraded. It is the time of trial and error and for
growing confidence and beginning of expertise. It is not the time of perfection but of striving for
competence. Though pre service teacher, is a process whereby a potential teacher confirms to
himself/herself and others that he/she has the resourcefulness to survive with educators, he/she
must first understand the value of continuous learning because this could be the best tool in
molding individuals into a better and more competitive one. The first major step in moving from
amateur status toward gaining competencies that mark the real professional is the student
teaching opportunities to the educational theories and methods into practice. Student teaching is
first and foremost a learning situation. This is the craft before he or she has to put his/her skills
on the lime in the own classroom. This is the student teacher’s chance to learn from his mistakes
without causing harm to his/her students. This is the time for the student teacher to find out an
actual teaching situation, the prospect teacher gains more experiences that would serve as a
credential in their path. As we all know, teaching is a noble profession. It requires a long
preparation and more training sessions to be equipped in facing the real environment that awaits
them in the near future. Student teaching serves as an internship in the education profession
where theories, knowledge, attitudes and skills develop through course work and observation

1 G EPISODE The School Environment
FS 1 1

SPARK Your Interest

This episode 1 provides an opportunity for students to examine and reflect on a school
environment that promotes learning and development.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

 At the end of this episode, I must be able to determine the characteristics of a


school environment that is safe, secure, and is supportive of learning (PPST 2.1.1).

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

1. A physical environment conducive for learning is one that has consistent practices
that:
 Keep the school safe, clean, orderly and free from distraction;
 Maintain facilities that provide challenging activities; and
 Address the physical, social, and psychological needs of the students.

2. Display boards can be powerful in communicating information about the learning


environment. They help in building and establishing the school culture. Those boards
become one way for everyone to learn about the vision-mission, goals, and values that
the school upholds.

3. As a basic part of the school’s visual environment, display boards have for general
purposes:

 Decorative- they offer visual stimulation and appeal to aesthetics. They set the
social and psychological atmosphere of the school.
 Motivational - they encourage students to perform better and have greater
confidence. An example would be the display of students’ outputs that show that
each output is recognized and valued. The bulletin boards help celebrate the
learners’ growth and progress.
 Informational - they are used as a strategy to readily disseminate information.
 Instrumental - they move students to respond and participate through interactive
displays. They get students to think about and communicate their learning.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 2

4. The set of criteria for evaluating bulletin board displays includes effective
communication, attractiveness, balance, unity, interactivity, legibility, correctness,
and durability.

surely give a very big motivations to the students to learn more and comfortably.
The environment of the school is peaceful and secured. Other school facilities
such as offices and comfort rooms are very suitable to the members of the
schools. Teachers and principal were also approachable and friendly.

ANALYZE
How do the school campus and the classroom in particular impact the learning of
the students going to school? What are your conclusions?
The school campus and the classroom should be covered in an atmosphere conducive
for the learning students. The reason for this is that, the school is a community where

3. What kind of classroom is conducive to learning?
Based on what I observe, the classroom could be conducive for learning if the teacher
is well trained. Having a good moral value and know how to handle the different
attitude of the student. In addition, a classroom become conducive for learning if there
an enough learning material that needed for the learning process. Furthermore,
classroom must also be well organized, and everything is at its place, well ventilated

information that they need to know and it will help to increase their knowledge.

Did the board display design reflect the likes/interest of its target audience? Why? Why

not?

Yes, because they use simple word that appropriate to the level of their target audience.

Was the language used clear and simple for the target audience to understand? Why?

Why not?

Yes, because all of the information posted in the bulletin board is useful and you can learn a
lot.
Was the board display effective? Why? Why not?

Yes, board display is effective since the display message or content is valid and accessible. It

is also effective because all of people who works in institutions usually use this way to

convey message and inform everyone especially in educational institution.

What suggestions can you make?

Put title in every board display so that the viewers can easily understand what they read then

they can easily find information.


Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 17

Based on your suggestions, propose an enhanced version of the display board. Use the form
below.
My Proposed Board Display
Theme:

 ACTIVITY BOARD

Board Title:

 READ & LEARN

Rationale
(Purpose)

 The purpose of this board display is to helps student to enhance their vocabulary.

Objectives:
 At the end of the day, student will have additional knowledge of information aside
from what they have discussed in their classroom.

Best Features of my proposed bulletin enhancement:


 It consists of list of the words with meaning and trivia question about different
subject taught in school.

Content Resources (Name each needed resources and give each a brief description):

 Books- is a number of pieces of paper, usually with words printed


 Internet- a global computer network providing a variety of information and
communication facilities
 Dictionary- a book or electronic resource that lists the words of a language and gives
their meaning.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 18

Materials for aesthetic enhancement:

 Bond paper
 Construction paper
 Marker
 Styrofoam
 Cutting material/ Pictures

REFLECT
1. Name at least five skills that a teacher should have to be able to come up with
effective board displays. Elaborate on why each skill is needed.
 Artistic- the teacher must have a sense of art in order to make an attractive board
display.
 Informative- the board display must have varied yet appropriate information.
Information placed on the board may provide additional knowledge to the
audience. That is why teacher must gather information from all types of sources.
 Resourceful. A board display doesn’t need to be expensive for it to be nice.
Resourcefulness of the teacher may contribute to the beautification of the board.
 Idealistic – the teacher must think an idea of what his/her board display would
look like and how will it work for the learning of the viewers.
 Observant- assessment is very important in order for the teacher to identify what
is the need of the student. That is why a teacher must develop the assessment skill
so that he/she will have an idea of what type of board display he/she will make.

2. Which of the skills you named in # 1 do you already have? Recall your past
experiences in making board displays. How do you practice these skills?
• Being resourceful because during my high school day I already experiencing a lack of
financial in making my project so, in that why I practice being resourceful.

3. Which skills do you need to develop? What concrete steps will you take on how you
can improve on or acquire these skills?
 I think the skill that I need to develop is being artistic. The things that I need to
do to develop that skill is to watch the tutorial in the YouTube in creating
different design that will make your board display attractive.

1 EPISODE Developmental Characteristics, Needs and Interests
FS 1 2

SPARK Your Interest

Episode 2 provides me with an opportunity to observe learners of different ages and grade
levels. It highlights the differences in their characteristics and needs. As a future teacher, it is
important for me to determine my learners’ characteristics and needs so that I will be able to plan
and implement learning activities and assessment that are all developmentally appropriate.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

 At the end of this Episode, I must be able to describe the characteristics, needs and
interests of learners from different developmental levels. (3.1.1).

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

Here are major principles of development relevant to this Episode:

1. Development is relatively orderly. Development follows directional patterns such as, from the
head to the toe (cephalocaudal), and from the center of the body then outwards
(proximodistal).
2. Development takes place gradually.
3. All domains of development and learning physical, social and emotional, and cognitive are
important, and they are closely interrelated, (NAEYC, 2009).
4. Development proceeds toward greater complexity, self-regulation, symbolic or
representational capabilities, (NAEYC, 2009).

To realize the Intended Learning Outcomes, I will work your way through these steps.
Step 1 Observe 3 groups of learners from different levels (preschool, elem., and high
school).
Step 2 Describe each of the learners based on my observations.
Step 3Validate my observation by interviewing the learners.
Step 4 Compare them in terms of their interests and needs.

OBSERVE

Use the observation guide and matrices provided for you to document your observations.

An Observation Guide for the Learners Characteristics

Read the following statements carefully. Then write your observation report on the provided
space. Your teacher may also recommend another observation checklist if a more detailed
observation is preferred.

Physical
1. Observe their gross motor skills how they carry themselves, how they move, walk, run, go up
the stairs, etc.

2. Are gross movements clumsy or deliberate/smooth?


3. How about their fine motor’s skills? Writing, drawing, etc.

Social
1. Describe how they interact with teachers and other adults.
2 Note how they also interact with peers. What do they talk about? What are their concerns?

Emotional
1. Describe the emotional disposition or temperament of the learners (happy, sad, easily cries,
mood shifts).
2. How do they express their wants needs? Can they wait?
3. How do they handle frustrations?
4. Describe their level of confidence as shown in their behavior. Are they self-conscious?

REFLECT

1. While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own experiences when
you were their age? What similarities or differences do you have with the learners
you observed?
While I was observing the learners, I remember the times when I’m in their age, I already
experience of going to of the class without asking permission with my teacher was somewhat
similar to the learners that I observed.

2. Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons. How did she/he
help or not help you with your needs (physical, emotional, social and cognitive)? How did
it affect you?
The teacher that I will never forget was my teacher during elementary days, because she
punished me because I didn’t do my assignment. At that time, I experience embarrassment
with my classmates, but that’s the reason why I become diligent in making my homework.
3. Share your other insights here.
Teaching is not easy profession. Teacher is the foundation of every learners to become a better
individual. As a future teacher I become a good role model to my future pupils and I will do
my best to become an effective teacher for everybody.

SHOW Your Learning Artifacts

Which is your favorite theory of development? How can this guide you as a future teacher?
Clip some readings about this theory and paste them here.
I choose Piaget’s theory of development. The Jean Piaget’s Theory of cognitive
development suggest that children move through four different stages of mental development.
His theory focuses not only on understanding how children acquire knowledge, but also on
understanding the nature of intelligent, this theory helps me to align my teaching strategies
with the student cognitive level. Through looking in every stage that suggest by Piaget, you
can know what kind of learning that students need in that ‘age.

FS 1 3Indigenous Peoples

SPARK Your Interest

Episode 3 provides an opportunity to observe how differences and gender, racial,


cultural and religious backgrounds, including coming from indigenous groups influence
learner behavior, interaction, and performance in school. One will also analyze and reflect on
practices that teachers used in leveraging diversity in the classroom. It also provides an
opportunity to observe how differences in abilities affect interaction in school and learn about
strategies that teachers used in addressing the learners needs toward effective teaching and
learning.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:


 describe the characteristics and needs of learners from diverse backgrounds:
 identify the needs of students with different levels of abilities in the classroom:
 identify best practices in differentiated teaching to suit the varying learner needs in a
diverse class (PPST 3.1.1): and
 demonstrate openness, understanding, and acceptance of the learners' diverse needs
and backgrounds

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

Here are principles and concepts relevant to this episode:


1. Principles of Development
a. Development and learning proceed at varying rates from child to child, as well
as uneven rates across different areas of the child's functioning. (NAEYC
2019)
b. Development and learning are maximized when learners are challenged to
achieve at a level just above their current level of mastery, and also when they
have many opportunities to practice newly acquired skills.
c. Differentiated instruction is a student-centered approach that aimsto match the
learning content, activities and assessment to the different characteristics,
abilities, interests, and needs of the learners.

2. The PPST highlighted the following factors that bring about the diversity of learners:
a. Differences in learners’ gender, needs, strengths, interests, and experiences
b. Learners' linguistic cultural socioeconomic and religious backgrounds
c. Learners with disabilities, giftedness, and talents
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 33

d. Learners under challenging circumstances which include geographic isolation,


chronic illness, displacement due to armed conflict, urban resettlement or
disasters, child abuse, and child labor.
Effective teachers are knowledgeable about how issues related to the factors
mentioned affect learners. The teachers develop in them sensitivity and empathy. They
remember that the learners respond and perform at different levels. The teachers assure the
students that their gender identity, culture and religion are respected, their strengths are
recognized, and their needs will be met. These teachers declare to all that everyone has the
chance to learn and succeed. They create a learning community where everyone can work
together and contribute regardless of their abilities, capacities and circumstances.
Teachers who celebrate and leverage student diversity in the classroom:
 use strategies to build a caring community in the classroom
 model respect and acceptance of different cultures and religions
 bring each of the student's home culture and language into the shared culture
of the school
 provide more opportunities for cooperation than competition

3. Focus on Indigenous Peoples


A young teacher's approach to indigenous peoples starts with a keen awareness of
one's own identity, including one's beliefs and cultural practices. Through serious
reflection one may realize that the self is a product of all the influences of key people
in one's life and the community, real and virtual. Similarly, learners from indigenous
groups carry with them their beliefs, views and cultural practices. One's attitude needs
to be that of openness and respect. Come in not with the view that one's own culture
is superior. We approach with the sincere willingness and deep interest to know and
understand the indigenous peoples' culture. We aim to make teaching-learning
facilitative rather than imposing.
a. From your professional education subjects/courses, most likely you have
discussed indigenous peoples in the Philippines. You learned that our country has
about 110 ethno-linguistic groups, majority of which is in Mindanao, some in
Northern Luzon and fewer in the Visayas. (UNDP Philippines, 2010). They
represent about 10-20% of our total population. There are two big indigenous
peoples groups which have several smaller ethnic groups within them, the non-
muslim groups called the Lumads in Mindanao, and the logorots in Northern
Luzon. Among others, we have the Badjaos. Ati and Tumandok,Mangyans, and
Aetas.
b. Republic Act 8371 (1997), the Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act, recognizes and
protectsthe rights of indigenous cultural communities (ICC) and indigenous
peoples (IP). Our country was admired by other nations for enacting this law.
However, years later, so much still has to be done to improve the lives of millions
of people from indigenous groups. (Reyes, Mina and Asis, 2017)
c. Guided by RA8371, in 2015 Dead Issued DO 12. 2015, Adopting the Indigenous
Peoples Education (IPED) Curriculum framework. Most useful for you as a
future teacher to remember in the 5 Key Elements of an Indigenous Peoples
Education Curriculum (DO 32, s.2015enclosure.pp. 15-18)
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 34

1. Curriculum Design, Competences and Content. Interfacing the national


curriculum with Indienos. Knowledure systems and practices (IKSPs) and
Indigenous Leaming systems (ILS) the desire of a culturally appropriate and
responsive curriculum has the following features:
a. Anchors the learning context on the ancestral domain, the community's
work view, and its indigenous cultural institutions.
b. Includes and respects the community's expression of spirituality as part of
the curriculum context.
c. Affirms and strengthens indigenous cultural identity,
d. Revitalizes, regenerates, strengthens, and enriches IKSPs, ILS, and
indigence languages.
e. Emphasizes competencies that are needed to support the developmentand
protection of the ancestral domain, the vitality of their culture, and the
advancement of indigenous peoples' rights and welfare.
f. Supports the community's efforts to discern new concepts that will
contribute to the community's cultural integrity while enabling meaningful
relations withthe broader society.

2. Teaching Methodologies and Strategies.A culturally appropriate and


responsivecurriculum employs teaching methodologies and strategies that
strengthen, enrichand complement the community's indigenous teaching-
learning process.

3. Learning Space and Environment. A culturally appropriate and


responsivecurriculum recognizes that the ancestral domain where IKSPs are
experienced, lived and learned is the primary learning environment and
learning space of indigenouslearners

4. Learning Resources. Instructional materials, and other learning resources


shall bedeveloped and utilized in line with the described curriculum content
and teaching learning processes.

5. Classroom Assessment. Assessment shall be done utilizing tools appropriate


to the standards, competencies, skills, and concepts being covered. Their
design and use shall address the needs and concerns of the community and
shall be developed with their participation.

The learners' differences and the type of interaction they bring surely affect the
quality of teaching and learning. This activity is about observing and gathering data to find
out how student diversity affects learning.

To realize the Intended Learning Outcomes, work your way through these steps:

Step 1. Observe a class in different parts of a school day. (Beginning of the day, class time,
recess, etc.)

Step 2. Describe the characteristics of the learners in terms of age, gender, and social and
cultural diversity.

Step 3. Describe the interaction that transpires inside and outside the classroom

Step 4. Interview your Resource Teacher about the principles and practices that she uses in
dealing with diversity in the classroom.

Step 5. Analyze the impact of individual differences on learners’ interactions.

The observation form is provided for me to document my observations.

OBSERVE

An Observation Guide for the Learners’ Characteristics

Read the following carefully before you begin to observe. Then write your observation
report on the space provided on the next page.

1. Find out the number of students. Gather data as to their ages, gender, racial groups
religious, and ethnic backgrounds.
During class:
1. How much interaction is there in the classroom! Describe how the students interact with
one another and with the teacher. Are there groups that interact more with the teacher
than others.
2. Observe the learners seated at the back and the front part of the room. Do they behave
and interact differently?
3. Describe the relationship among the learners. Do the learners cooperate with or compete

OBSERVATION REPORT

Name of the School Observed Abang Suizo Integrated School______________________


School Address Prk. Abang, Buenaflor, Tacurong City, SultanKudarat__________
Date of Visit February 22, 2022____________________________________

There are 28 students, consisting of 17 boys and 11 girls.

Base on my observation inside the class, almost of the student participate in the class
discussion but sometimes there’s a time that some student is not focusing in their lesson. There’s
a student that always active when the teacher asks a question but other they always silent during
discussion. The teachers always make a motivational activity in which the student who feel
sleepy become active. The student sitting in front are those students who are always participate in
the class discussion while the students who are sitting in the back area are those students that are
noisy. Sometimes when the student called by the teacher and didn’t answer the question, some
student helps their classmates Despite of the differences of every student inside the classroom the
learning process was still successful it’s because of the teacher that can know how to handle the
different attitude of the students.

Outside the class, the students group according to their friends. Student engage with each
other despite of having different culture and personalities. Students ae connected and treat one
another with respect.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 37

ANALYZE

1. Identify the persons who play key roles in the relationships and interactions in the
classroom. What roles do they play? Is there somebody who appears to be the leader, a
mascot/joker, as attention seeker, a little teacher, a double pessimist?

Based on their group activity I observe that some student has a potential to become a
leader. Some student are prefer to work independent but others are prefer to work with
their peers. There are also a student who are dependable with their teacher and always
do want the teacher tell.

2. What makes the learners assume these roles? What factors affect their behavior!

Their personality and behavior influence their decision in life. The factors that affect their
behavior may include their peers, classmate, culture they observe and most especially
their teacher.
3. Is there anyone you observed who appear left out? Are students who appear “different?”
Why do they appear different? Are they accepted or rejected by the others? How is this
shown?
Base on my observation, despite of the differences of each other there no student appears
to be left out because they respect each other. All of them know how to accept the
differences of each other.

What does the teacher do to address issues like this?


The teacher should pay more attention to them and make them feel as if he or she cares
about them instead of making them feel different.

4. How do you spell the teacher influenced the class interaction, considering the individual
differences of the students?
The teacher should treat the student fairly regardless of the differences of the student. The
teacher should always paly as a role model of the student, always willing to correct the
student when they do a bad behavior.

5. What strategies does the teacher use to maximize the benefits of diversity in the
classroom? How does the teacher leverage diversity?
The teacher should know her student well so that she will know what strategery to be
used to become learner more effective. She always gives equal opportunity to her student
to show their talent so that she can discover what is the need of her student.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 38

1. How do you feel being in that classroom? Did you feel a sense of oneness or unity among
the learners and between the teacher and the learner?
Being in the class of Grade 11, I feel comfortable it’s because the students and the teacher
has a good relation with each other’s. Despite of the differences of the students from each
other, they work with unity because they accept each other. The teacher effectively
instructs the pupils by employing a variety of tactics and strategies that make studying
more engaging and enjoyable.

The student in the school that I observe, has different personalities, ability, behavior
and attitude. There’ a student that can easily catch up the lesson and respond to the teacher
quickly while others have a difficulty in doing a task that teachers prepared. In addition,
the student in the front row are actively participating and focus to the teacher while, student
in the back row are unable to focus due to distractions. The teacher skillfully instruction
her student, and she incorporates some learning materials into her lesson delivery, resulting
of an effective learning process. She used different teaching approach to fulfil the different
needs of the student.

OBSERVATION REPORT
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 41

ANALYZE

1. Did your observation match the information given by the teacher?


Yes.

2. Describe the differences inability level of the students in the class? What practices or
strategies are done or should be done to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of the
learners?
Based on my observation, the level of intellectual of every student is different to each
other. Some student can quickly respond to the teacher and the can express their ideas and
views but there a few that gradually improve their performance, and we all know that this
is an important part of their growth. The teacher makes learning more enjoyable so that
she can easily capture the attention of her student. She also used different teaching
strategies and learning material that relevant to the needs of the students.

3. Describe the methods used by the teacher in handling the students’ differences in abilities.
How did the students respond to the teacher? Did the teacher use differentiate instruction?
If yes, describe how?
Yes, because she uses different teaching strategies, to meet the students need despite of
the differences of their abilities by doing some task and activities that surely fit on the
extent of the student’s knowledge and capabilities.

REFLECT
3. Recall the time when you were in elementary or high school. Recall the high and low
achievers in your class. How did your teacher deal with differences in abilities? Was your
teacher effective?
My teacher in elementary and high school is very effective it’s because despite of our
differences inside the classroom they still manage the class with effective learning
process. They always make a way to make us all performed and share our thoughts in any
ways, like oral recitation or written works. They always give an opportunity for every to
learn and showcase our talent inside the classroom.

2. What dispositions and traits will you need as a future teacher to meet the needs of the
learners?
As a future educator, I should improve my communication skills, because for me this is
very important skill that teacher has to become an effective teacher. I also become a good
listener to my future student so that I can truly understand their personalities and interest,
in that I can easily respond with their needs.

Date of Visit ______________________________________________________________

Lumad Bakwit School in Up Diliman in the school that I observed. I observed it


while viewing a film of Atom Araullo chronicling Lumad Bakwit School. Their situation
has been extremely difficult due to a lack of permanent and formal school, lack of
equipment and learning materials, a lack of teachers, and lack of space in their faculty.
Military strikes school bombing, and the death of many people are the reason why people
opt to flee their homes and seek peace elsewhere.
The student are also taught to plant vegetables at this school, since acvording to the
bakwit, it is the life of their ancestors and source of livelihood for their Mindanao
Community. Lumad student continue to hope for an opportunity to attend regular school, a
good educator and acceptance and fair treatment from others.

LEARNING Learner Diversity:


FIELD STUDY 1
EPISODE The Community and Home Environment
FS 1 4

SPARK Your Interest

Episode 4 provides opportunities for you to have more in-depth look into the factors that
affect the development of a learner. Focus will be on the early experiences and characteristics of
the leaner as described by the family and other significant others. You will also focus how the
teacher linkswith the community to maximize the learning and development of students.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcomes

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:


 describe the influencing factors in the home environment that affect the students learning;
 seek advice concerning strategies that build relationships with parents guardians and the
wider community (6.2.1); and
 identify effective strategies on how teachers can work together with the family.

REVISIT the learning Essentials

1. Urie Bronfen brunner's bio-ecological model presents the learner within the context of layers
of relationship systems that make up the learner's environment. The layers are:
Microsystem Mesosystem Ecosystem Macrosystem Chronosystem
includes the the connection the bigger Outmost layer the element of
structure such between the social system which includes time patterns of
one's family structures in the which includes cultural values stability and
school and microsystem the city customs and pacing of the
neighborhood government, laws child's everyday
the workplace life
and the mass
media

The model helps the teacher look into every aspect in the learner's environment to understand
his behavior. The teacher's important role is not to replace what is missing at home (if any), but
to work so that the school becomes an environment that welcomes and nurtures families. The
teacher works to create work to create a partnership with the family and the community to bring
out the best in every learner.

2. Baumrind's Parenting Styles


Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 54

Authoritarian. Parents are very firm with their child and expect unwavering andunquestioning
obedience. Rules are set by parents and misbehavior is met with withdrawal of affection,
physical punishment or threats.
Permisive. Parents are not firm or controlling. They have few expectations. May be warm and
caring but appear to be uninvolved and uninterested.
Rejecting-Neglecting. Parents are disengaged with children.Neither demanding nor responsive
to children. Provide no structure, supervision, support or guidance.
Authoritative. Parents achieve a good blend. They are firm yet loving. Have clear andreasonable
expectations and limits for their children. Treat children with respect and warmth. Make
children understand consequence of their behavior.
Children of:
Authoritarian Parents;are often unhappy, fearful, withdrawn, inhibited, hostile and aggressive.
They have low self-esteem and difficulty with peers.
Permissive Parents; believe that their parents do not care for them. They are oftenimpulsive,
aggressive luck self control that they have low levels ofindependence and responsibility.
Rejecting-NeglectingParents; are found to be the least competent in their overall functioning
and adjustment.
Authoritative Parents:are socially competent, self-reliant, and have greater ability to showself-
control. They have higher self-esteem and are better adjusted.

REFLECT
1. Reflect on your own development as a child. What type of parenting did you experience?
How did it affect you?
The parenting that I have experience with my parents was authoritative parenting it is because
may parents always set rules and standard but not too much. This parenting has a good impact for
me, because of this I learn how to become independent and have social skills.

2. As a future teacher, how would you establish good home-school collaboration? How can you
work well with the parents? How can you help them? How can they help you?
To establish good home-school collaboration  constant communication will help keep parents on
track with what is taking place in the classroom each and every day. Always inform the
parents if their child has a problem in school the allow parents to talk about with their
children so that you can know the attitude of their children.

EPISODE Creating an Appropriate Learning Environment
FS 1 5

SPARK Your Interest

This learning Episode provides an opportunity to mine how classrooms are structured or

designed to allow everyone's maximum participation for effective learning. You should be able to

examine how classroom management practices affect learning. This Episode enhances the

application of the theories learned in the following professional subject such as Facilitating learner

Centered-Teaching and The Child and Adolescent Learners and Learning Principles

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:

 plan on how to manage time, space, and resources; and

 provide a learning environment appropriate to the learners and conducive to learning.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

The classroom climate that is conducive for learning is one that is non-threatening yet business-

like. It is a classroom where, when creating audio-visual presentations, the following are observed:

 Specific classroom rules and procedures are clear

 Classroom rules and procedures are discussed within the first few days of the school.

 Students are involved in the design of rules and procedures

 Techniques to acknowledge and reinforce acceptable behavior are employed.

 Clear limits for unacceptable behavior are established and negative consequences for such

are communicated

 Classroom processes are democratic

Resource Teacher: Mrs. Queenie G. Antonino Teachers Signature: ___________


School: Abang Suizo Integrated School
Grade/Year Level: Grade III- Maunawain Subject Area: __________________
Date: February 22, 2022

OBSERVE

Observe and use the observation sheet provided for you to document your observations

1. As you observe the class, look into the characteristics of the learners. Note their ages.
Based on my observation as I join in online class of grade 3 student they have different
personalities, some are actively participated in the class while other are always silent and
listen what the teacher said. Since the class occupies the grade 3 pupils that age range are in 7
to 8 years old.

2. How many boys are there? How many girls?


The Grade 3 consisting of 13 boys and 8 girls with the total of 21 pupils.

3. Focus on their behavior. Are they already able to manage their own behavior?
As what I have observe during the learning process, there are some pupils who can
manage their behavior. Some pupils were still needing guidance by the parents and
teacher.

4. Can the learners already work independently?


There are some student that can work independently but there’s also a student that
can’t work independently.

5. Describe their span of attention.


Base on my observation the time of their attention is longer because they can finish 1
jour class, sometimes since this is online its vary on their internet connection.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 6

ANALYZE

Analyze and answer these questions on observed classroom management practices. It is also
good to ask the teacher for additional information, so you can validate your observation. Write
your notes below; and then organize your data in the Table that follows.

1. Are there areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage age of teaching aids, books,
students' belongings, supplies, etc.). Describe these areas. Will it make a difference is these
areas for specific purposes are not present?
- The areas for specific purposes are present in the classroom. The blackboards are placed in
the front of the room while the teachers table is at the back. The seats are placed at the center
portion with two rows and containing 11 pairs. The storages are placed in the left side areas
beside the windows together with the teaching aids. These areas make a difference since it adds
supporting factor on the space or learning environment

2. Are there rules and procedures posted in the room? List them down. Do these rules reinforce
positive behavior?
- Since, we are in the new normal now, this is the new set rules that I have seen in the
classroom, wear face mask, practice social distancing, always check body temperature,
keep classroom neat and clean, and avoid touching in noise and eyes. This rule helps them
to become safe from the virus.

3. Did the students participate in making the classroom rules? If the Resource Teacher is
available, ask him/her to describe the process. What's the effect of student’s participation in
rule-making on student's behavior?
-Unfortunately, I cannot observe if the student follows the rules that set by the teachers it is
because the class is held in an online platform.

4. What are the daily routines done by the Resource Teacher? (prayer, attendance, assignment of
monitors, warm-up activities, etc.) How are they done?
Yes, even the class is held online the teacher still follow the daily routines which they
conduct prayer before the class, checking of attendance and other activity that conducted
during face to face class.

5. Is there a seating arrangement? What is the basis of this arrangement? Does this help in
managing the class?
-From now on the setting arrangement inside the classroom has a one-meter distance apart for
the preparation of limited face to face. Consisting only 11 chairs every classroom.
6. Observe the noise level in the classroom. How is this managed?
- Since this is online we cannot avoid the noise around, to handle that the teacher suggest
that student must mute their microphone of their cp and open only if they want tp answer.
7. If a learner is not following instruction or is off-task, what does the Resource Teacher do?
Describe the behavior strategies used.
- The teacher calls the attention of the student who do not follow her and talk with them.
8. What does the Resource Teacher do to reinforce positive behaviors? (behavior strategies)
- As what I observed, the teacher uses reward system, praise and nonverbal
communications (like nods, thumbs up, clapping and smiling) as strategy to motivate
REFLECT

Reflection as a future teacher

1. Why do you need to enforce positive discipline?


- It is important to enforce positive discipline among student so that they can practice good
behavior and prevent bad behavior.

ANALYZE

1. How did the classroom organization and routines affect the learners' behavior?
- The classroom organization and routines affect the learner behavior in a sense that it serves
as a guide for the students on how to manage their task and it also serve as a guide for them to
change their attitude because they know that their teacher is monitoring their behavior.
2. What should the teacher have in mind when she/he designs the classroom organization and
routines? What theories and principles should you have in mind?
- The teacher should bare in his mind when he designs the classroom organization and
routine, the effects of those to the learners, what would be the outcome of those things if it is
effective or not. I guess the theory of John Dewey which is the experimental learning or the learning
by doing.

3. Which behavior strategies were effective in managing the behavior of the learners? In motivating
students? Why were they effective?
- Positive reinforcement is the effective way in managing the behavior of the learners. Giving
reward and praising for student once they do excellence in the class help them to become more
motivated in every task they have.

REFLECT

Reflect on the following and write your insights.


1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade year level do you see
yourself? What routines and procedures would you consider for this level? Why?
- Since I am future elementary teacher I see myself teaching in grade 5 or 6. First I will explain to
them the rules inside the classroom to make our everyday class smooth and free from distraction.
The class will start always with prayer, to be follow by checking of assignment and reviewing
the past lesson before introducing the new lesson. After a class I will do an assessment to
evaluate if they truly learned from our discussion.
2. Make a list of the rules you are likely to implement in this level. Why would you choose these
rules?
- Always be on time.
- Keep the classroom clean and neat.
- Observe proper wearing of uniform
- Participate in class discussion
- Respect each other
I choose all of these because I assure that if they follow this rules the learning process will
become successful.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 9

3. Should learners be involved in making the class rules? Why?


- For me, it’s better that they involved in making the class rules because sine it is chosen by both
teachers and student they have no reason to not follow the rules because they agree on
implanting those rules.

LINK Theory to Practice

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:
 identify the two (2) classroom management; and
 determine the classroom management strategies that the Resource Teacher
employed in his/her class.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials


Classroom management refers to the wide variety of skills and techniques that teachers
use to keep students organized, orderly, focused, attentive on tasks and academically productive
in class.

Ref: edglossary.org
Importance of Effective Classroom Management
 Increases chance of student success.
 Paves the way for the teacher to engage students in learning.
 Helps create an organized classroom environment.
 Increases instructional time - creates consistency in the employment of rules and
regulations.
 Aligns management strategies with school wide standards.
 Decreases misbehavior in the classroom.
 Gives student boundaries as well as consequences

ANALYZE

Analyze the different elements of personal/physical classroom management and answer the
following questions?
1. How does the voice of the teacher affect classroom instruction?
- If the voice of the teacher is load clear in announcing the classroom instruction the student
can easily acquire accurate information.
2. How does the punctuality of the teacher affect classroom discipline?
- The punctuality of the teacher affects the classroom discipline because I believe student
learn based on what they observe from the teacher. If the teacher show punctuality a chance
that the student follows with the behavior of the teachers.
3. Why do we need to check on the physical aspects of classroom management?
- It’s important to check the physical aspect of classroom management because if the
classroom is not organized it leads to a distraction for the learners.

REFLECT

Reflect on the aspects of personal and classroom management.

1. What does this statement mean to you as a future teacher? Explain.


“No amount of good instruction will come out without effective classroom management”.
-This phrase tells us that If a teacher in a certain classroom doesn't know how to
effectively manage a classroom, then he/she will also not be able to formulate and give any good
instruction that sometimes leads to the failure of the students to learn.
2. What are your plans in ensuring effective classroom management?
- For me, to ensure an effective classroom management I will let the students to engage in
formulation the classroom rules for them to be aware and since there all agree with the rules that
we are set they have no reason to not follow this.

FIELD STUDY 1
EPISODE Understanding the school Curriculum
FS 1 8 Close Encounter with the School Curriculum

SPARK Your Interest

Formal education begins in school. Schools are institutions established to design total learning
activities appropriate for each team in each grade level. Thus schools have recommended curriculum
which is the enhanced K to 12 curriculums. The recommended curriculum was translated into
written curriculum like books, modules, teachers' guides and lesson plans which are the basis of the
taught curriculum. A teacher who implements the curricula needs support materials (support
curriculum) to enhance teaching and learning so that the written and the taught curricula can be
assessed (assessed curriculum) in order to determine if learning took placed (learned curriculum).
However, there are so many activities that happen in schools but are not deliberately planned. This
refers to the hidden curriculum.

A classroom teacher plans, implements and evaluates school learning activities by preparing a
miniscule curriculum called a lesson plan or a learning plan. The teacher then puts life to lesson plan
by using it as a guide in the teaching-learning process where different strategies can be used to
achieve the learning objectives or outcomes. There are many styles of writing a less plan, but the
necessary parts or elements such as (a) Learning Outcomes (b) Subject Matter (c) Teaching --
Learning Strategies, and (d) Evaluation or Assessment should always be included.

All of these elements should be aligned so that at the end of the teaching-learning episode,
learning will be achieved with the classroom teacher is a guide.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome


At the end of this Episode, I must be able to;
 identify the different curricula that prevail in the school setting;
 describe how the teacher manages the school curriculum by planning, implementing lessons
through different strategies and assessment of learning outcomes; and
 analyze if the teacher aligns the objectives to subject matter, to teaching strategies and
assessment

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

School Curriculum: What is this about?


From a broad perspective, curriculum is defined as the total learning process and
outcomes as in lifelong learning. However, school in this course limits such definition of total
learning outcomes to confine to a specific learning space called school. Schools are
formalinstitutions of learning where the two major stakeholdersare the learners and the teacher.
Basic education in the Philippinesthe Department of Education orDepEd and the
recommended curriculum is the K-12 Enhanced Basic Education Curricula of 2013. All basic
education schools offering kindergarten (K) elementary (Grades 1 to 6) and Secondary (Grades 7-10,
Junior High School and Grades 11 to 12, Senior High School) adhere to this national curriculum as a
guide in the implementation of the formal education for K to 12.
What are the salient features of the K to12 Curriculum? Here are the features. It is a
curriculum that:

16. strengthens the early childhood education with the use of the mother tongue,
17. makes the curriculum relevant to the learners. The use of contextualized lessons
andaddition of issues like disaster preparedness, climate change and information and
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 26

communication technology (ICT) are included in the curriculum. Thus, in-depth knowledge,
skills and values, attitude through continuity and consistency across every level and subject,
18. builds skills in literacy. With the use of Mother Tongue as the main language in
studyingand learning tools from Kto Grade 3, learners will become ready for higher level
skills,
19. ensures unified and seamless learning. The curriculum is designed in a spiral
progressionwhere the students learn first the basic concepts, while they study the complex
ones in the next grade level. The progression of topics matches with the developmental and
cognitiveskills. This process strengthens the mastery and retention,
20. gears up for the future. It is expected that those who finish basic education in Grade 12
willbe ready for college or tech voc careers. Their choice of careers will be defined when
they go to Grade 11 and 12,
21. nurtures a fully developed youth. Beyond the K to 12 graduates the learner will be ready
to embark on different career paths for a lifetime. You will recall that a school curriculum is
of many types for the Kindergarten to Grade 12 in the country.

• The enhanced curriculum K to 12 curriculum is the Recommended Curriculum. It is to


be used nationwide as mandated by Republic Act 10533.
• When the curriculum writers began to write the content and competency standards of the
K to 12 Curriculum it became a Written Curriculum. It reflects the substance of RA
10533 or the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013. In the teacher's class it is the lesson
plan. A lesson plan is a written curriculum in miniscule.
• What has been written in a lesson plan has to be implemented. It is putting life to the
written curriculum, which is referred to as the Taught Curriculum. The guidance of the
teacher is very crucial.

A curriculum that has been planned, and taught needs materials, objects, gadgets, laboratory and
many more that will help the teacher implement the curriculum. This is referred to as the
Supported Curriculum.
• In order to find out if the teacher has succeeded in implementing the lesson plan, an
assessment shall be made. It can be done in the middle or end of the lesson. The
curriculum is now called the Assessed Curriculum.
• The result of the assessment whensuccessful is termed as Learned Curriculum. Learned
curriculum whether small or big indicates accomplishment of learning outcomes.
• However, there are unplanned curriculums in schools. These are not written, nor
deliberately taught but they influence learning. These include peer influence, the media,
school environment, the culture and tradition, natural calamities and many more. This
curriculum is called Hidden Curriculum or Implicit Curriculum.

So what will be the roles and responsibilities of the teacher in the relations with the school
curriculum, specifically in the K to 12 or the enhanced curriculum for basic education?
Teachers then should be multi talented professionals who
• know and understand the curriculum as enumerated above;
• write the curriculum to be taught;
•plan the curriculum to be implemented;
•initiate the curriculum which is being introduced;
•innovate the curriculum to make it current and updated;
• implement the curriculum that has been written and planned; and
• evaluate the written, planned and learned curriculum.

Are these all found in the school setting? How do curricula relate to one another?
Yes, all of this is found in school setting and its related to one another because it is all helpful
in student learning process and both beneficial for teachers and learners.

Draw a diagram to show the relationship of one curriculum to the other.

REFLECT

Make a reflection on the diagram that you have drawn.

The relationship between the different types of curriculum is highly connected and they
both serve to enhance each other. Each curriculum has a role that can help for other curriculum
to become more effective for both teacher and learners. Curriculum is one of the important tools
used to in teaching process to become learning effective for learners. Through the use of this
curriculum makes teaching easy because you have a guide on what you need to do to achieve
your learning objectives.

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:
 identify the teaching-learning practices that apply or violate the principles of teaching
Learning;
 determine the guiding principles on lesson objectives/learning outcomes applied in
instruction;
 judge if lesson objectives/intended learning outcomes are SMART;
 determine whether or not the intended learning outcomes are achieved at the end of the
lesson;
 observe the teaching methods used by the Resource Teacher, and
 differentiate the different methods of teaching

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

These are the time-tested principles of teaching and learning


1. Effective learning begins with setting clear expectations and learning outcomes,
2. Learning is an active process, "What I hear, I forget; what I see, I remember; what I do, I
understand."
3. Learning is the discovery of the personal meaning of ideas. Students are given the
opportunity to connect what they learn with other concepts learned, with real world
experiences and with their own lives.
4. Learning is a cooperative and a collaborative process.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 37

A teaching method consist of systematic and orderly steps in teaching-learning process. It is the
practical realization or application of an approach. All methods of teaching can be classified
either as deductive (direct) or inductive (indirect).

OBSERVE

Observe class with the use of the principles of learning given in Revisit the Learning Essentials. I
will identify evidence of applications/violations of the principles of learning. I can cite more than
one evidence per principle of learning.

of learning outcomes prepared to lesson and present to the class.

2. Learning is an active process Students were encouraged to participate fully


in class discussions and educational learning
activities by the teacher.
3. Learning is the discovery of personal The teacher gives learners the opportunity to
meaning and relevance of ideas think about and express their thoughts on the
topic, as well as discuss it in front of the class.
4. Learning is a cooperative and a The teacher assigns students to interpret the
collaborative process. Learning is poetry by producing, brainstorming ideas with
enhanced in an atmosphere of their peer groups, and debriefing their final
cooperation and collaboration thoughts in a group work exercise

ANALYZE

1. What principles of learning were most applied?


Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 38

Most Applied

 For me, the most applied principle of learning is learning


cooperative, because teacher always grouped the learners to share
their ideas about the topic.

Least Applied

 For me, learning is the discovery of personal meaning and


relevance of ideas because almost of the time spent by teacher
explaining her/his ideas.

Give instances where this/these principle/s could have been applied?


 In class, the teacher did the majority of the work. This is in sharp
contrast to a teacher who mostly assists students in their learning
while the students, are the ones who contribute ideas to a given
topic.

REFLECT
From among the principles of learning, which one do you think is the most important?
 For me, the most important principle of learning is learning is an
active process because this principle must be actively interested,
engage in higher-order cognitive tasks such as analysis, synthesis,
and assessment.

2. Cite pieces of evidence that these learning outcomes were achieved.

1. The learner’s output

2. The paragraph presented by the student

3. Picture of student painting a landscape.

ANALYZE
1. Do SMART objectives make the lesson more focused?
Yes, because it will serve for the teacher on what they need to do and accomplish.
Without clear objective the teachers become distracted and not focus for the lesson because they
cannot now what they need to do.

REFLECT
Reflect on the

Lesson learned in determining SMART learning outcomes

Determining SMART learning outcomes will help teacher reaching lesson outcomes. It is
important to have a clear learning objective because serve as guides for student on what they

need to achieve in this class discussion. In that why they can easily respond the teacher question.
It also help for the teachers to choice the best teaching strategies in order to achieve the learning
outcome.

OBSERVE
I will observe one Resource Teacher with the use of this observation sheet. Using the guide
questions, I shall reflect on my observation and analysis.

Teacher-centered Student-centered

Did teacher lecture all the time? Were students involved in the teaching-
learning process? How? Were they mere
passive recipients of instruction?

Was the emphasis on the mastery of the Was the emphasis on the students’
lesson or on the test? Prove. application of the lesson in real life? Give
proofs.

Was class atmosphere competitive? Was class atmosphere collaborative? Why?


Why?

Did teacher focus only on one Did teacher connect lessons to other
discipline/subject? disciplines/subjects?

What teaching-learning practice shows that teaching approach was:


a) Constructivist-connected to past experience of learners; learners constructed new
lesson meanings
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 41

b) Inquiry-based

c) Developmentally appropriate-learning activities fit the developmental stage of


children

d) Reflective

e) Inclusive- No learner was excluded; teacher taught everybody.

f) Collaborative- Students worked together

g) Integrative- Lesson was multidisciplinary- e.g. In Science, Math concepts were


taught

ANALYZE
1. What are possible consequences of teaching purely subject matter for mastery and for the
test?
 The he students will be enclosed in the four corners of the
classroom; the learning will not extend to the real world because
the students are just bombarded with concepts but with no
application. Students will study just for the sake of examinations
and what the teacher had taught would be easily be forgotten

2. If you were to reteach the classes you observed, would you be teacher-centered or
student-centered? Why?
 For me, I prefer to use student centered to help the students
increase their participation, encourage teamwork, and improve
discipline.it allow them to learn from their own.

REFLECT
Reflect on Principles of teaching worth applying

It is important to apply the principle of teaching because it will help to the teaching become
effective and successful. If I become a teacher someday I will create an active learning
environment in which all student has an opportunity to show or express their ideas and thoughts.
I also create a classroom that conducive for learning so that the learning process become
effective.

EPISODE The Instructional Cycle


FS 1 10
SPARK Your Interest
This Episode centers on the guiding principles in the selection and use of teaching
methods. It will also tackle lesson development in the OBTL way. The K to 12 curriculum and
teacher education curriculum are focused on outcomes, standards and competencies. This means
that lessons must be delivered with focus on outcomes. Likewise, this Episode dwells on types of
questions, questioning and reacting techniques that teachers make use of. The type of questions
that teachers ask and their manner of questioning and reacting to student responses have a
bearing on class interaction. This Episode strengthens the theories learned in the course,
Teaching Methods and Strategies and in other professional subjects in Education.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcomes


At the end of this Episode, I must be able to;
 identify the application of some guiding principles in the selection and use ofteaching
strategies
 determine whether or not the lesson development was in accordance with outcomebased
teaching and learning
 identify the Resource Teacher's questioning and reacting techniques
 outline a lesson in accordance with outcome-based teaching-learning

REVISIT the Learning Essentials


These are the guiding principles in the selection and use of teaching methods;
1. Learning is an active process
2. The more senses that are involved, the more and the better the learning
3. A non-threatening atmosphere enhances learning.
4. Emotion has the power to increase retention and learning
5. Good teaching goes beyond recall of information
6. Learning is meaningful when it is connected to students' everyday life.
7.An integrated teaching approach is far more effective than teaching isolated bitsof
information.

Realizing the importance of these guiding principles in teaching and learning, the
Department of Education promotes Standards and Competency-Based teaching with its K to
12 Curriculum Guide. The Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has
been ahead of DepEd and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in the practice of
Competency.

Standards-Based Teaching and Assessment.CHED requires all higher education


institutions in the country to go Outcome-Based Education (OBE) in the CHED Memo 46, s.
2012. Outcome-Based teaching and learning (OBTL) is OBE applied in the teaching-learning
process. It is equivalent to competency-Based and Standards-Based teaching and learning in
the K to 12 Curriculum.
When you apply OBTL, you see to it that the teaching-learning activities (TLAs) and in
turn the Assessment Tasks (ATs) are aligned with the intended learning outcomes. In other
words, is OBTL you first establish your intended learning outcomes (lesson objectives). Then
you determine which teaching learning activities (TLAs) and also assessment tasks (ATs)
you will have to use to find out if you attained your ILO’s.
In lesson planning, the ILOs are our lesson objectives, the TLAs’ are the activities we use
to teach and the AT’s are the evaluation part.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 45

OBE and OBTL are not entirely new. They are importantly new. With mastery learning
of Benjamin Bloom (1971), we were already doing OBE and OBTL.
Likewise, it is also important that teachers must be able to have the mastery of the art of
questioning and reacting techniques to ensure the effective delivery of instruction.
These are the types of questions that teachers ask.

Types of questions that Teachers Ask


1. Factual/Convergent/Closed/Low Who, What, Where, When questions with
level one acceptable answer

2. Divergent/Open-ended/High Open-ended; has more than one acceptable


level/Higher-order/Conceptual answer

a. Evaluation

e.g. When the phone rang and Liz picked it


b. Inference up, she was all smiles. What can you infer
about Liz?

c. Comparison

d. Application

e. Problem-solving

3. Affective e.g. How do you feel?

These are also some of the reacting techniques that teachers use:
1. Providing acceptance feedback
2. Providing corrective feedback
3. Giving appropriate and sincere praise
4. Repeating the answer
5. Explaining the answer/ expanding the answer
6. Rephrasing the question
7. Asking follow up questions
8. Redirecting questions to other pupils
9. Soliciting student questions
10. Encouraging through non-verbal behaviour
11. Criticizing respondent for his/her answer
12. Scolding for misbehaviour or for not listening
13. Overusing expressions such as “okay”, “right”

ANALYZE

What is the best method of teaching? Is there such a thing?


For me, all teaching method good but it depends on the situation and on how to use it.

REFLECT

Reflect on this question.


How do we select the appropriate strategy for our lesson?

In selecting the appropriate strategy for your lesson, try to look back to the learning
objective that you have. Use teaching strategy that can suitable for your intended learning
outcomes.

OBSERVE
Observe a class and answer the following questions.

1. Did the teacher state the learning objectives/intended learning outcomes (ILOs)
beginning of the class? Did he/she share them with the class? How?
 Base on my observation the teacher presents first her learning
objective before starting the class discussion. She presents through
power point.

2. What teaching-learning activities (TLEs) did he/she use? Did these TLAs help
him/her attain his/her lesson objectives/ILOs? Explain your answer.
 The activities that the teacher used was lecture and she use power
point presentation to present her topic. This activity helps her to
achieve the learning objectives.

3. What assessment task/s did teacher employ? Is/are these align to the lesson
objectives/ILOs?
 The teacher asks a question to the student about the lesson to
assure that the learning outcome was truly achieve.

ANALYZE

What are your thoughts about Outcome-Based Teaching and Learning (OBTL)?
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 48

Outcome-Based Teaching and


Learning (OBTL) is a student-
centered approach
that was being adopted by the new
curriculums. OBTL focused not on
what the teacher
intended to teach but rather the
emphasis is on what the outcome

OBTL is a student-centered approach to learning and teaching, which has been widely
adopted in universities across the world. They should be measurable and indicate the
teaching intentions.

REFLECT

Reflect on the use of OBTL.


OBTL helps you to identify the intended outcomes or goals of a module or programmed
and then aligning teaching, learning, and assessment to maximize the likelihood that
students achieve those outcomes.

ANALYZE

1. Neil Postman once said: “Children go to school as question marks and leave school as
periods! “Does this have something to do with the type of questions that teachers ask
and the questioning and reacting techniques that they employ?
For me, yes because asking question is very important as a student especially when intern
on the lesson through this, they can clarify their concern and make them understand the
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 50

lesson. The type of question will also affect how student will response, it will depend on
how they understand the question given for them.

REFLECT

Reflect on
The importance of using various reacting techniques

Reacting techniques is very importance because asking question for student it could help
them to develop their thinking skill and improve their critical thinking. Once the teacher
asks a question the student is trying to think to answer the question that given by his/her
teacher. Asking question, it also one way of teacher to assess the student if they truly
learn from the lesson. In that way the teacher will explain again if they having difficulty
in understanding the lesson.

DAILY JOURNAL

DAY 1: February 21, 2022


February 21 was our first day of deployment for our field studies 1 and 2. Today, Ma'am
Mary Grace Gallego instructed us to gather and prepare our important documents like CCTS,
vaccination cards, and notarized parent's consent, along with our school ID. After an hour of
waiting, Ma'am Gallego finally arrived at the venue. She immediately checked our documents
and attendance to see if everybody was present. We did pictorials for our documentation. After
so many errands, we decided to go to our cooperating school. When we arrive at our cooperating
school, the faculty and staff welcome us warmly. Ma'am Gallego forwarded our documents and
files to the head teacher of the school, and then after that, we underwent orientation, reading of
MOA, presenting and explaining the rules and regulations of the school, introduction of teachers,
distribution of pre-service teachers to their respective cooperating teachers, and Sir Ronald
Pelitro gave the chance to the cooperating teacher to orient us, the pre-service teacher. Me and
Joylen are assigned to the same cooperating teacher, which is Ma'am Queenie G. Antonino. We
are assigned to the Grade Six section, Waling-waling. After a little discussion, Ma'am Queenie
gave us ample time to do our chores and personal things. Ma'am Queenie is indeed a kind-
hearted and happy person. I like her personality, especially her sense of humor, which I do not
have. That's all for today.
DAY 2: February 22, 202
Today is our second day of field study. I could definitely say that our cooperating school
was a friendly school. Not only was the school itself friendly, but the faculty and staff were all
kind and smart. On our second day, we cleaned the front area of our designated room. We swept,
watered the flowers, picked up trash, and wiped dirt from the windows. As a pre-service teacher,
these tasks are important to me. They are all easy and light jobs for me, but I know that through
these jobs I can show my help and show our cooperating teachers that the products of SKSU are
all responsible and well trained. Nothing really hard or tiring happened today, but I will keep and
continue being an obedient and responsible pre-service teacher because I know someday, I will
do the same thing, but not as a pre-service teacher but as a certified public teacher in God's
perfect timing. Have a nice day! 
DAY 3: February 23, 2022
Benchmarking is the process of comparing your school's spending with similar
schools and schools with similar challenges. It allows your school to look at spend in different
areas such as staffing, supplies and services; buildings and land; as well as against the individual
Consistent Financial Reporting (CFR) codes.
Today is our busy day because we are expecting visitors from the Lambayong District,
specifically from Zeneben Integrated School. This day, me and Joylen are busy cleaning our
areas and arranging some files that are needed for the benchmarking. We are preparing our room
because our grade and section have chosen to do the benchmarking with the school's visitors.
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 54

We, the pre-service teachers, quietly observe and listen to the teachers while Ma'am Queenie
explains to her co-teacher what they are going to do and teach them some easy ways in order to
have a good output or solutions to every problem that the visiting school may encounter. As I
listen to them, I rarely ask myself why I chose this career because it is so exhausting and
draining.But, I am proud that I am becoming a licensed public teacher and these challenges and
doubts that I have encountered today will be overcome, and I will use them as a motivation for
pursuing and fighting for my future.
DAY 4: March 01, 2022
Today is the first day of March, and it is our fourth day here at Abang Suizo Integrated
School. Days went by, and this day is just another normal day. We did flag raising and we
introduced ourselves in a creative way to the teachers, and lastly, we did hataw sa umaga
or zumba in order for us to be energized the whole day. In the morning, as usual, we swept our
front area, picked up some trash, watered the flowers, and cut some grass. During lunch time, we
checked some of the modules that our pupils had passed and then we compiled the modules
properly. Before we went home in the afternoon, Joylen and I burned some dead leaves, dried
trash, and grass to keep our area clean. Today, I learned that many of our pupils cannot
understand the how and wh questions because I clearly saw and read their answers. Their
answers were way too far from the questions. That is why I concluded that they lack both
comprehension and reading skills. It is all because of the pandemic. Many students are
unfortunate to not have a quality education, and the result is that they are not academically built
and ready to step up to the next level. Face-to-face classes are very necessary for some neglected
students, especially.
DAY 5: March 02, 2022
Today is Monday. It is a happy Monday because some of my classmates or co-interns
have already worn their pre-service uniforms. They are so clean to see and very professional.
Today we checked so many modules and encoded some grades for our pupils, tutoring some cute
little ones and helping some of my friends with their chores. We also cleaned our designated
room. We swept and mopped the floor until it shone like new, cleaned the toilet, washed some
dishes, and wiped the windows that were full of dirt. In the afternoon, we watered the dried
flowers, cut some grass, and burnt some trash. This day I can feel some boredom and I am a little
tired but happy.
DAY 06: March 03, 2022

Today, March 8,2022, is a fortunate 8 day. I'll merely jot down my observations from my
field studies. My impressions about supporting my cooperating teacher are as follows: She
designs lessons to meet the needs of diverse and special-needs kids. Familiarize yourself with
your kids' conduct. Create an effective and consistent strategy to classroom management.
Effectively manage time and transitions. She employs both vocal and nonverbal communication
approaches that are successful. She is quite proficient in Filipino and has rehearsed the tactics
she utilized throughout her class lectures. Reflect on teaching approaches on a regular basis and
develop goals for continuous improvement. She examines the students on a regular basis in order
to develop educational goals. Above all, she is a role model of integrity, honesty, and discretion.

DAY 07: March 04, 2022

It is my responsibility in this profession to follow and obey the instructions of my


cooperating teacher. In doing so, it is extremely beneficial for me as a student teacher to follow
her guidance. Accept constructive criticism and ideas about my teaching methods so that I can
improve. Whatever scenarios happen as a result of my performances, I must remain open-
minded. Because my cooperating teacher had a lot of expertise in many ways of teaching the
students in a meaningful way, learning the subject matter was more engaging and enjoyable.

DAY 08: March 07, 2022

As noticed, the learners I am working with are courteous to instructors, other school
personnel, and us, their foster teachers. They are accountable and appreciate their values. In
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 55

particular, in my class, they cherish one other's company both inside and outside of the
classroom. They were not a bother to manage in class because they are smart learners with
responsible attributes. When they are given new jobs, they work on them until they are
completed. Aside from that, these students participate in classroom discussions. They may do
any assignment assigned to them by the teacher. They are cooperative in the sense that they
assist one another in completing duties inside the classroom. They are capable of completing any
chores assigned to them by the teacher. They are cooperative in the sense that they assist one
another in completing duties inside the classroom. They are helpful to their classmates,
professors, and other professionals. Students who are well-behaved when the teacher is teaching
in front of them or in between topics. In general, these students have positive attitudes and
actions.

DAY 09: March 08, 2022

It is not an easy job to be a teacher. There are several preparations that must be
completed, including lesson plans, instructional materials, teaching approaches, and so on.
Teachers provide the oxygen and vitality in the classroom. They are the vital thread that connects
the learners to the lifelong learning process. Similarly, I, as a teacher, expect to be prepared all
the time, physically, emotionally, and mentally, because there are circumstances that I may not
expect to happen with my clients, such as misbehaviors, irregularities, and other flaws and
inconsistencies. All of these factors contribute to the difficulties of the teaching profession. But
then I learned that in my line of work, I am assisting, encouraging, teaching, and inspiring my
students to achieve their full potential.

DAY 10: March 09, 2022

My prayers were fulfilled by God. I requested a compassionate, caring, courteous, and


instructive cooperating teacher who could assist me in improving and broadening my teaching
knowledge and abilities. And I succeeded in capturing her. She was courteous to me. She showed
me the books needed for the class, the lesson she was working on, and the teaching guide she
was using. Although she is not a talkative instructor, I have the impression that she is a highly
clever teacher capable of developing one's confidence, skills, and talents. She is a person who
places a high value on what she does. She has a pleasant personality. The day we first met, he
was joyful to me. I know she can look after me, help me along the road, and give me adult
advice. I know she can look after me, help me along the road, and give me adult advice. I am
aware of her readiness to assist, and I feel she is capable of answering my queries and providing
recommendations on how to improve my teaching abilities. I may look forward to Ma'am Juriefe
in my future job to help me become a more competitive person or mentor. Throughout the
teaching and learning process, I expect her to collaborate with me and vice versa. She offers me
criticism to help me better my deficiencies and gives me the opportunity to explore and find
since I feel there are many concepts, lessons, and principles to learn and implement.

DAY 11: March 10,2022

As a result, I must be more competitive in terms of people for various fields of


employment. Try to enhance what the environment requires. Setting objectives empowers my
students to select where they want to go and what they want to achieve. Knowing what they aim
to accomplish will allow me to assist them focus on the lessons for their personal learning
growth. My students can quantify and clearly state their objectives. I will allow them to be proud
of themselves for achieving these objectives. Students will increase their academic performance,
drive to accomplish, pride and pleasure in performance, and self-confidence by setting the
purpose, vision, and goals in my collaborating school. Students will improve their academic
performance, motivation to achieve, pride and satisfaction in performance, and self-confidence
by establishing the mission, vision, and goals in my cooperating school. In order for us to learn,
it is important to listen to the cooperating teacher's advice because she is the most reliable source

of information in terms of teaching and classroom routines. Furthermore, preparing for the things
needed in class ahead of time can reduce tension. Planning is critical because possible results
will be maximized for a future teacher's success.

DAY 12: March 11,2022

All children must attend school on a daily basis. Students who attend school on a regular
basis are more interested in their study, have a stronger feeling of belonging to their community,
and are more likely to graduate from high school. 

In terms of student attendance, my observation is that there is a permanent seat


assignment set within the classroom so that the allocated student or the teacher may simply
verify the attendance for each class. Every part has a seat layout imposed by my cooperating
teacher.

DAY 13: March 14, 2022

My encounters with my pupils were so unforgettable because each student has a unique
set of exceptional qualities. Even though I had difficulties dealing with their misbehavior at
times, we had a wonderful connection. A good personal relationship that is stable, trustworthy,
and compassionate may boost a learner's sense of belonging, self-esteem, and self-acceptance.
For me, being a student teacher provided an opportunity to apply instructional approaches that
were appropriate for the learner's prior knowledge, cognitive capacities, and learning and
thinking processes. As a result, the students were eager to learn more and contributed to the
establishment of a secure environment for exchanging ideas and actively engaging in the
learning process. I discovered several approaches, strategies, and ways to pique my trainees'
interest and willingness. Because what benefits could you provide them if teaching is not your
passion, the students help me to love the teaching profession even more. 

Every time I worked with my students, I felt like a true teacher since they depended on
my thoughts about what they were learning. It is quite difficult for me. I am grateful and
delighted to have them as students since we are learning from one another. I've learnt to adapt to
the many types of learners they are. In order to grow my abilities and extend my teaching
capacity, I must overcome the sorts of learners I have. These experiences will serve as a
reminder to me in the future when I am already in the area of teaching. Working with the pupils
was the most fulfilling experience I had as a pre-service teacher.

DAY 14: March 15, 2022

My critique instructor was a fantastic teacher. I learnt a lot from her. She reminds me of
the techniques, methods, and approaches I should use every time I do a demonstration. She is
particular about SMART; precise, measurable, achievable, dependable, and time-bound methods
of presenting the subject and establishing the classroom atmosphere. She exhibited the context of
interaction between and among instructors and students. How to interact with students with
Stephanie C. Montilla Field Study 1 Portfolio 57

strong rapport and empathetic listening abilities, not only about life in the classroom but also
about their lives in general. Knowing the students personally, their likes and dislikes, the
personal issues impacting their conduct and performance, continually behaving in a warm
personal manner while maintaining a professional distance from the kids. Knowing the students
individually, their likes and dislikes, the personal situations affecting their behavior and
performance, consistently behaving in a friendly personal manner while maintaining professional
distance from the pupils, providing reinforcement and encouragement for the pupils, assisting
pupils in succeeding by using differentiated instructions and encouraging them to be responsible
for their own learning These are the lessons I've taken from my cooperating instructor. It would
be easier for me to manage problems in the future, especially my students, because I now know
how to deal with them. Finally, in the teaching profession, I should stick to my promises and
follow through on my goals. In the teaching profession, I should stick to my promises and follow
through on my intentions.

DAY 15: March 17, 2022

Today is the 15th and last day of our field research. We set the chairs and brought them
all the way up to our allocated room from the school gym. Following that, we make plans for the
supervisor to check in again. My takeaway from the entire field study experience is that teaching
is not an easy job. There are several preparations that must be completed, including lesson plans,
instructional materials, teaching approaches, and so on. Teachers provide the oxygen and vitality
in the classroom. The destiny of the kids are on their shoulders. They are the important thread
that ties the learners to the process of lifelong learning. Similarly, as a teacher, I expect to be
prepared all of the time, physically, emotionally, and psychologically, because misbehaviors,
irregularities, and other defects and inconsistencies may occur with my students in unexpected
ways. All of these factors contribute to the difficulties of the teaching profession. But then I
learned that in my line of work, I am assisting, encouraging, educating, and inspiring my
students to bring out the best in them and help them achieve their full potential and goals.
