Introduction:
Hello Students,
Welcome to lesson 1 of module 3. This time you will be observing how the learners behaved
at the beginning of the day, upon arrival, during their sharing time in the distribution and collection
of materials and in all other learners activities and responsibilities in the classroom. Attendance
will also be checked. After observation, you will noticed that the success of teaching and learning is
determined by the way the class is managed and organized.
ACTIVITY:
Observation Guide
Research/Watch a teaching demonstration video on YouTube. The video must focus on your
area of specialization. Observe and checked the teacher’s classroom management skills
while facilitating the teaching and learning process. These management skills include:
a. Routine activities to ensure classroom discipline such as
checking of attendance
seating arrangement
handling materials and devices
classroom courtesies
b. Monitoring of the learner’s behavior and the teacher’s response to the various
forms of student behavior.
Preliminary Activity:
Be guided by these questions as you do your observation of the classroom management.
Write your notes below and then organize your data in the table that follows.
1. Are the areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage of teaching aids, books, students,
belongings, supplies, etc.) Describe these areas.
The first thing that struck me was how the teacher had set up the books on the right-hand side
of the table. She had also arranged the paper in a transverse pattern. The chairs can be
arranged correctly. At the center of her table is a reflection. For the purposes of the schedule,
she likewise provided a fun bulletin board. The student belongings are located next to the
supplies, and the reading corner, where books are read, is located last.
2. Are the rules and procedures posted in the room? List them down.
The guidelines were specified by the teacher during class. She was able to teach the students
regulatory issues so that they could listen to their teacher while simultaneously timing.

ANALYSIS:
After observation you are ready to answer the following questions.
1. What kind of classroom management does the teacher practice? Why?
The teachers supervise with an authoritative parenting style and an analytical methodology.
The teacher demonstrates the dominant classroom management structure, which strikes a harmony
between teacher control and student engagement. The teacher's proactive measures and camaraderie
while emphasizing the significance of ensuring compliance with the regulations the teacher values
the feedback and observations of the students with regard to the school context. Students' learning
will be subsequently measured through appraisal as practice.
2. Do you think that the management style that the teacher is using in class contributes to the
students learning? Why? Why not?
Yeah, of course! It allows students to learn when they are prompted by their educators to
actively engage in and get embroiled in all of the practices that are prescribed for them. The teacher's
methodology corresponds to the forceful classroom autocratic leadership implies, which is a
compromise of instruction and supervision and classroom participation. As shown via observation,
students are as energized as the teacher, and somehow this makes it comprehensive. The learners are
not really reluctant to cooperate and take any chances. This stimulates advancement and
accomplishment in all domains of learning.
3. If you were the teacher, what management style would best maximize student learning?
When we as teachers embrace the authoritative instructional managerial style, which
motivates students to participate in all tasks so that they can absorb more from them, the results will
be satisfactory. In order for learners to feel empowered and have the conviction to grasp more, it is
crucial to care for them both within and beyond the classrooms. This goes beyond simply stimulating
pupils.

2. How important is classroom management to the teaching-learning process? Why/ Why not?
The accumulation and return of teaching methods, accessing and quitting the room, and
upholding classroom civility are just a few examples of practices that may be incorporated inside
the classroom and save time, effort, and resources. The way a teacher engages with children in
the classroom and how they interact socially with their advisors and one another is an indication
of a positive setting for learning. This ambience should also make it simple to check attendance,
disperse and revert back educational content, enter and leave the class with reverence, and have
decent supervisor-subordinate interactions.

Reflection:
The following questions will guide you to how to observe based on actual action of a mentor.
1. Identify at least three indicators of consistent classroom management used by the teacher and
how well was the teacher able to facilitate learning?
First, the teacher provides additional exercises and always keeps their lesson plans organized.
In her class, she was preparing for the forthcoming lesson. The teacher must be consistently
in the classroom when implementing her various approaches to teaching for something like
the students.
Second, by asking relevant questions and receiving the appropriate replies from the pupils,
the teacher fosters appropriate behaviors or feedback. She inspires the other students to
remark on her subject or gives others an opportunity to take part as well.
In sum up, "the teacher balances diversity and complexity in the pupils' tasks." The variety of
tasks given by teachers to children is clearly relevant to their competence. The teacher
provides pupils with reasonable tasks that allow them to work within their capabilities. The
teaching method becomes engaging and entertaining when the teacher introduces it very well.
2. What constitutes a conducive physical learning environment? How can a teacher come up with
a physical environment that is supportive of learning?
If the teacher wants to teach in a positive environment, they should build a stimulating
classroom. The classroom should continuously be enticing so that students will desire to
study. The educator should also set up a games area in which the students may play while
also understanding, filled with visual appeal and layouts for lessons. The teacher should
determine whether to use a customizable arrangement such that pupils can study in a setting
that suites them. Learners would have to have access to a broad range of resources.
Furthermore, in order to capitalize on ambient light, window curtains must be exclusively
unfastened.

Furthermore, in order to capitalize on ambient light, window curtains must be exclusively
unfastened.
Teachers assess the range and depth of learners' comprehension of various subjects.
Furthermore, student-performed patterns enable the educator to focus on more instructional
practices and the unforeseen occurrences that transpire all throughout the duration of the
school day.
4. What routines can be established for an efficient and effective teaching-learning process?
After teaching these competencies, they should be reinforced and reaffirmed on a regular
basis to ensure interoperability and to emphasize to students the symbolic importance of each
behavior. Students should be shown each technique and what is anticipated of them in a
methodical and situational manner. Teachers should also think about suitable sanctions for
when students comply or disregard rules, and they need to let students know about both
groups of consequences. When a student consistently fails to exhibit the intended behavior,
one method of treatment may be recommended to the teacher; however, if the teacher notices
that multiple students are recurrently unable to participate in the time to do things, that is an
obvious indication that a separate course of action is required. Throughout the academic year,
teachers must keep a close eye on how students perform routines to ensure that what was
expected and instructed is what happens. Students perform more effectively if there is
consistency among teachers' standards, students' responses, and the teaching environment.
Changes to instructional practices can make some students confused about what to expect.
Perhaps it is important to reconsider preconceptions for routine activities with students and to
demonstrate as well as provide pupils more opportunities to practice their competence if a
teacher learns that she (or the students) has changed the pattern in order to bring uniformity
and order back into the room.
4. To what extent does knowledge on the stages of development help the teacher in managing the
class to have an effective teaching-learning?
In order to help students, create appropriate cognitive maps, connect ideas, and modify them,
teachers must first understand the nature of the content. Teachers need to understand how
concepts can be applied to these other disciplines and to daily life.
Comprehension of both child and adolescent development and how to stimulate development
in diverse domains, including cognitive, social, physical, and emotional development, is
essential for comprehending learners' statements and behaviors and creating constructive
interactions for them. Identifying variances that may result from culture, parenting practices,
evolved intelligent beings, and differentiated instruction is also crucial for engaging pupils in
learning.
Teachers should be able to pose tough questions, attach importance, and assess students'
progress conscientiously. For their learners to be capable of exploring ideas, gathering and
communicating ideas, and analyzing and dealing with problems, teachers must be educated
about curriculum technologies and instructional materials. Instructors are also required to
appreciate teamwork, which includes how to coordinate student interactions, communicate
with other teachers, and work with parents to develop the desired environments at both school
and home.
So you have successfully completed the activities and tasks for lesson 1. It is expected that
you have gained insights and meaningful experience in lesson 1. Now, you are already prepared to

The core objective of developing strategies in learning is to empower pupils to start to grasp
the process of learning. Learners can use approaches to circumvent their weak points and
perform at their maximum. Strategies encourage versatile thinking and help pupils recognize
the importance of adapting how they handle numerous operations.
2. What will happen if the teacher will not apply teaching strategies?
If a teacher fails to use excellent instructional practices, students will be less motivated to
study and their educational attainment will suffer. The students are incapable of connecting
the teachings to their own circumstances, which would allow them to synthesize existing
knowledge of existing concepts.

ABSTRACTION:
Communication embraces the variety of behaviors, processes and technologies by
which meaning is transmitted or derived from information (Encyclopedia of
Knowledge, International Edition, 2002). The term is used to describe diverse activities:
conversation, exchange of views, opinions or ideas, expression of feelings and
emotional state of a person. This focused observation on communication is specifically
aimed at how the language, verbal or non-verbal is used as a medium of interpersonal
communication between and among the pre-service teachers, the mentor and the
learners.
There are several important elements of classroom management and one is being
a good communicator. The teacher establishes effective communication which includes
verbal and non-verbal behaviors. The teacher can also communicate clearly in a logical
way using language that learners can understand.
APPLICATION:
Read carefully and answer the following questions based on what you have observed in class.
1. How important are the verbal and non-verbal forms of communications to the teachers?
Since every teacher uses words to orally provide the content to the pupils, verbal and nonverbal
communication are crucial for the teachers. People will discover themselves, grow in their
understanding of themselves, and define their relationship to the outside world through dialogue.
2. How verbal and non-verbal forms of communication affect the students’ learning?
The pupils will boost their ability to communicate while also increasing their ability to learn
steadily and effectively. Learners improve their skills and knowledge while also becoming more
enthusiastic about learning.
3. What forms of communication to the teachers and students need to improve on?
The learners will strengthen their capacity to communicate as well as their learning capacity to
learn methodically and efficiently. Learners gain knowledge and skills while also becoming
more motivated to study.
