TEACHERS REFLECTION FORM By: SLynn & AI*A M.

OBJECTIVE 6

How do you maintain a learning environment that is responsive

to your community's context? Describe the context in your area
and share teacher practices that contribute to further
improvement of your community?
As a teacher in an area where the community is highly adapted to 21st-
century communities, I understand the importance of creating a learning
environment that is responsive to their context. Our students come from
diverse backgrounds and have varying academic and social needs, and it's
important that we as educators meet these needs to support their growth
and development.

To achieve this, I have implemented several practices that contribute to

further improvement in our community. I use technology to facilitate
student-centered learning and make the environment engaging and
interactive. I also integrate real-world scenarios and projects that align with
the students' interests and goals to make learning more relevant and
meaningful.

I make it a point to develop a positive and inclusive classroom culture that

values diversity and promotes respect and understanding. I work to create
an environment where students feel safe to express themselves, share
their experiences, and learn from each other. By doing so, we can foster a
sense of belonging and community within our classroom.
OBJECTIVE 7

How do you develop your teaching practice in accordance with

the existing laws that apply to teaching and the responsibilities
specified in the Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers? How
do you develop your teaching practice in accordance with
existing regulations?
As a professional teacher, I take my responsibilities seriously and strive to
develop my teaching practice in accordance with the existing laws and
regulations that apply to the teaching profession and the Code of Ethics for
Professional Teachers.

To achieve this, I keep myself informed and updated on the latest laws and
regulations that apply to teaching. I make it a point to review and
understand these laws, as well as the Code of Ethics for Professional
Teachers, to ensure that I am meeting my responsibilities and obligations
as a professional educator.

Moreover, I seek out professional development opportunities that align with

these laws and regulations, such as attending workshops or seminars that
address legal and ethical issues in education. These opportunities help me
to develop a deeper understanding of the legal and ethical framework
within which I operate, as well as practical strategies for incorporating
these principles into my teaching practice.

OBJECTIVE 8

In which practices do you show care, respect, and integrity to

learners, colleagues, parents, and other education stakeholders?
How do these practices uphold the dignity of the teaching
profession?
As a teacher, my aim is to create a safe and inclusive learning environment
where all learners feel valued, respected, and supported. To achieve this, I
believe that it is essential to demonstrate care, respect, and integrity in all
my interactions with learners, colleagues, parents, and other education
stakeholders.

One way that I demonstrate care is by showing genuine interest in my

learners' well-being and success. I take time to get to know each student,
their interests, strengths, and challenges, and I use this information to
personalize my instruction and support. I also provide regular feedback that
is constructive, specific, and encouraging, so that learners can feel that I
am invested in their progress.

Respect is also essential in upholding the dignity of the teaching profession.

I show respect by valuing diversity and promoting inclusion in my
classroom. I recognize and appreciate the unique contributions that each
learner brings to the classroom, and I make sure to create opportunities for
all learners to participate and engage in learning. I also respect my
colleagues' opinions and ideas, even if we may disagree, and I maintain a
positive and collaborative relationship with parents and other education
stakeholders.

Integrity is another crucial quality that upholds the dignity of the teaching
profession. As a teacher, I hold myself accountable for my actions and
decisions. I am transparent in my communication with learners, colleagues,
and parents, and I follow through on my commitments. I also model ethical
behavior, such as honesty, fairness, and responsibility, so that learners can
learn by example.

Overall, by demonstrating care, respect, and integrity, I believe that I am

upholding the dignity of the teaching profession. These qualities foster
positive relationships, promote a sense of belonging, and contribute to a
safe and supportive learning environment that encourages learners to
achieve their full potential.

OBJECTIVE 9

As a teacher, what extra curricular activities you engaged so that

you can learned more and have more knowledge about diversity.
As a teacher, I am committed to continuous learning and professional
development, and I recognize the value of extracurricular activities in
expanding my knowledge and understanding of diversity.

One extracurricular activity that I engage in is attending conferences and

workshops that focus on diversity and inclusion. These events provide
opportunities to learn from experts in the field, explore new perspectives
and strategies, and network with other educators who share my interest in
promoting diversity and equity.

I also make an effort to seek out diverse perspectives in my own reading

and research. I read books and articles that explore different cultures,
experiences, and identities, and I make sure to include materials from a
range of authors and voices. This helps me to broaden my understanding
of diversity and to develop more inclusive teaching practices.

Another way that I engage in extracurricular activities related to diversity is

by participating in community events and organizations that promote
multiculturalism and social justice. This includes attending cultural
festivals, volunteering with local advocacy groups, and connecting with
community leaders who are working to create a more equitable society.

By engaging in these extracurricular activities, I am able to deepen my

knowledge and understanding of diversity, as well as to develop more
effective strategies for promoting inclusivity and equity in my teaching
practice. This ultimately benefits my learners by creating a more inclusive
and culturally responsive learning environment that celebrates diversity and
empowers all students to succeed.

Wishing you the best of luck as you pursue your dream of becoming a Teacher 1. Your
dedication and passion for education is truly inspiring, and I have no doubt that you will make a
positive impact in the lives of your future students. Keep pushing forward and never give up on
your goals. Good luck!
