Chapter 1 THE TEACHER WE REMEMBER

I. Observe and Notice

A. Do you have a favorite teacher? Why is he/she your favorite?

Yes, because He is very respectful, courteous, and humble. I adore the way he
teaches. He respects every pupil and doesn't think that punishment is necessary. He
prioritizes conceptual clarity above assigning pupils a ton of homework. He never
chastises students or uses anger to convey his worries. Instead, he speaks calmly and
directly to each student, encouraging us to work harder and make improvements.

B. Notice/ Remember the facial expressions, gestures, and actions of your teacher.
The resource teacher's facial expressions, gestures and actions creates interest while
demonstrating the lessons. Increases the student's engagement and their connection
in the teaching-learning process.

C. Review the qualities of good teachers as contained in PPST.

The competencies of teachers are one of the demands of the society from them
about what they look like, possess, and act in the classroom and outside school as
well. PPSTs get exposed to the view of abilities and personalities of one teacher also
TEDx videos add-on explanations on it and realize that it should be practiced. The
competencies talked about are a great teacher listens to students; a great teacher
sings; a great teacher eats apples; a great teacher is a chill; a great teacher notices
when students struggle and so on and so forth. We think these competencies are too
simple and everyone could do that and in deeper understanding, we realize this
simple thing can build relationships and foundation between students and teachers.
The great teacher competencies to possess is teacher listens to his/her students, the
way how she/he understand over the experiencing of the students.

II. Analyze

What three competencies do you find most helpful in the teaching- learning process?
The best teachers are skilled in the following teaching technical competencies:
instructional delivery, formative assessment, and classroom management.

III. Reflect

Which competency do you need to work on and how are you going to address it?

As a future teacher, I should strive to attain competencies to be the best teacher.

Teachers want to leave an imprint of himself/ herself and I want too as well. I realized
that I have tricky overcoming the situation being an introvert, I am a friendly person
and loves talking with other people in small group and typically not comfortable in a
group of people, I am not good at socialization as well as my peers are not in there,
my friends is not beside me and I felt alone in the area. For me, I need to develop
more when it comes to socialization to acquire knowledge and skills from others and
apply it on a daily basis. I know I can collaborate, contribute and participate unless
the shy has no place for me to play the role and this I have to change.

II. Analyze

Is K to 12 an effective curriculum? Interview a teacher, a student, and a parent.

Interview a Teacher
1. Is the K to 12 curriculum effective? What is the evidence that show its effectivity or
lack thereof?

The K–12 educational system works well for me because I can learn about the
curriculum and get better lesson plans and delivery methods. It makes use of various
pedagogical techniques, including the multiple intelligences concept, discipline-
based art education, culture-based education, and brain-based education. When
dealing with a difficult learner, K–12 teachers I've experienced inquire about the
student's family, neighborhood, and accessibility of the curriculum. Instead of
rejecting the learner for not comprehending, we consider their background.

2. Which part of the curriculum do you find challenging?

That is a whole different issue when switching from a different grade structure. The
most difficult to integrate successfully is computational.

3. Is it gender- sensitive curriculum?

Yes, we must continue to be mindful of gender inequalities in all we think, say, and
do in the context of learning. Children need a curriculum that is gender-sensitive,
current, and enhanced by infrastructure, technology, and knowledge.

Interview a Student

1. Do you find the subjects taught easy or difficult to catch on?

It depends on the subject.

2. Are you a full-time student or working part-time?

A full-time Student.

3. Are you amenable with the additional senior high school?

Yes.
Interview a Parent

1. Is your child active in his/ her studies?

Yes.

2. Does your talk about school in the house?

Yes, they open about what going on in their school.
3. What is your opinion on the additional two years added to high school studies?
The students will be better prepared with the skills, knowledge, and values
required for a successful future in their fields or course of study with the addition
of two years in high school.

III. Reflect

Are the instructional objectives aligned with the K-12 Curriculum? As a future
teacher would you recommend that we continue its implementation or opt for a new
one? Why?

Yes, because all the barriers that impede the instructional objectives aligned with the
K-12 Curriculum. Educators who are committed to identifying these obstacles will be
able to properly support K-12 students in settings that are truly free from oppression.
Any teacher cam accomplishes this goal with the aid of these four equity principles:
embrace, empower, educate, and include. On the other hand, I don’t recommend for
a new one because K-12 curriculum is continuing to grow increasingly diverse, many
teachers and schools supporting the academic, social, and emotional needs of the
culturally and linguistically diverse students that they serve.

III. Reflect

Can a teacher teach without a lesson plan? Explain your answer.

Yes, but the lesson will probably be littered with blank spots, lack energy,
ignore elements that would have liked to cover, and leave the students feeling
underwhelmed by what they are learning, among many other problems. Doing a
lesson plan and making visuals for teaching is a must because they are diverse
students and need to be equal in every way.

Chapter 4 APPROPRIATE TEACHING STRATEGIES

I. Observe

Identify 3 teaching strategies you see in the conduct of teaching by your cooperating
teacher.

a. Cooperative Learning

b. Behavior Management

c. Visualization
II. Analyze / Assist

Which strategy do you find most effective in relation to the lesson’s objective/s?

For me, an excellent strategy to improve peer connections in your class is through
cooperative learning. The classroom community can gain a lot when students
cooperate to achieve a common objective. It is vital because in the classes, the
students are the focus. Given that everyone has a voice and a role in the work, the
teaching environment is healthier because of the students getting to know one
another better. They all work for the same objective and help one another.
Cooperative learning needs to be systematic and consistent to be successful.
Opportunities for interaction should promote learning and healthy group
interdependence, but they should also call for students to show that everyone is
responsible.

III. Reflect

What is a teaching strategy that you find applicable in most lessons? Explain.

When it comes to the lesson's goals, as a future teacher, what strategy do I think is
most successful is cooperative learning? Using new technology in the classroom can
help foster a cooperative learning environment that caters to each student's unique
needs while also making the classroom work as a whole. Every student working
together at their tables enables them to assist those who may be having trouble or to
share ideas to help finish the lesson.

terms of pedagogy and content knowledge, they have a thorough comprehension of
the disciplines or fields in which they have completed training. They have the
necessary abilities, values, and expertise to support the teaching and learning
process. Considering their students' academic needs, they organize learning
programs and employ learning-promoting strategies. If there is someone to do
adjustments, it is the teacher. The teacher implemented differentiated strategies
which everybody understands.
