Two days prior to the activity. the practicumers coordinated with the BN8 regarding the
schedule and venue of the activity. The practicumers also requested the feeding program to
be center-based instead of dry rationing in order to eecute the nutrition education
program planned for the participants. The resources that the BN8 and BDC can provide were
also identified. These include the transportation. venue. manpower and consumable supplies
2e.g.6anna rice. other ingredients. and disposable utensils and cups. The participants were then
identified and an invitation to the participants was done right after the meeting.
!
A$*/a' I,-'e,e!*a*.!
4t was agreed by the practicumers and the BN8 to conduct the feeding program in
a center&based form. However. not everybody in the list given by the BN8 was able to
attend since most of them are students. Those who were not reached by the center-based
feeding received their daily food supply still through dry ration.
Out of 16 participants, 11 were
aged 2 to 5 and the last five were aged 6
to 11. The nutrition education strategy
for the day was storytelling using a large
colored and illustrated childrens boo.
This was used since the participants
belong to wide range of ages !2-12
years". #$parting i$ages, actions and
sounds would do to co$pensate the age

for the children.
Then, for the last activity which also served as a review or recap for the
participants, -uestionnaires !%ppendi& ." were distributed to the children. The
-uestionnaires contained i$ages of different nutritious and non-nutritious foods and the
participants are to identify and put circle on the nutritious foods. Twelve participants
were able to get perfect scores. The re$aining four were not able to answer the post-test
since they cannot still write and answer the -uestionnaires. The $others helped their
children in answering the -uestionnaires. #n the end, the $ost outstanding girl and boy
were awarded with crowns as -ueen and ing !in relation with the story told"

The nutrition education $aterials that can be used for the feeding progra$ were
endorsed to the '(). This includes the boo that was used for storytelling as well as
videos and $usic about proper food choices. The group had also given a cooboo
co$prising of rice-based recipes since there had been a te$porary disappearance of
.entury Tuna supply and only +anna 0ice was provided.

The program aimed to introduce new recipes of Century Tuna for the feeding program.
#owever$ during the duration of %ommunity Nutrition &ield 'ractice$ %entury Tuna
temporarily stopped providing supplies to the barangay and gave them to (olanda
victims instead. )ecause of this$ for the mean time$ the practicumers did not insist on
changing the regular recipes mainly using the *anna +ice that the )N, had been using
since the tuna rations had stopped. The practicumers learned to be fle(ibleA adapting to the
communityBs situation. learning about their limitations and potentials. utili:ing resources and
being resourceful.
1uring the actual i$ple$entation, $ost of the children were ,ust watching. (one

This was $ainly because they were still too young or were ,ust shy to spea. The group

was not appropriate for the age of so$e of the participants. #n the end, 12 out of 16 were
able to answer the -uestionnaires.
Another challenge was the call to continue the program in a center&based manner.
The problem was with the schedule of the BN8 and the schedule of the practicumersB
other activities. During the end of the year. the BN8 was very busy with her reports.
gatherings and also with her health condition. The group learned here to ad;ust and
negotiate to be able to meet half way with the BN8.
-
The BN8 needed a space as feeding area. However. there had been a problem
regarding the coordination with the BDC. The group learned that the BN8 works for her
love to the community. 8he had been giving more than what she had been receiving.
Community work really re>uires one to have a heart for the peopleA a selfless one indeed.

or the unresponsive audience. it is recommended that the profile of the
participants should be gathered before deciding what nutrition education strategy and
activity is to be used to find a better match for the participants.
8ince some political issues were involved. the practicumers should bridge the gap
in between the officials by involving them into the activities. especially with the
preparations.

Before the seminar proper. lecture handout was given to the resource speaker to
serve as her guide for the discussion. However. during the seminar proper. the topics
discussed were not concise. The practicumers were not able to give the resource speaker
specific topics.
The practicumers learned that the specific topics should be clarified with the
resource speaker so that in the seminar proper. there will be a smooth flow of the
discussion instead of many topics that can be easily forgotten by the participants. Also.
several mothers in Barangay Aplaya have misbeliefs about deworming that should be
corrected through different programs such as seminars.

Re$,,e!da*.!s"
At least a day before the activity. the specific topics to be discussed should be
clarified to the resource speaker. Also. the practicumers should also listen to the lecture to
identify if there are missing topics and be ready to add information. The practicumers
should also conduct research and read some articles about the topic that can be added
during the seminar.

During the activity proper. especially on the second day. heavy rain fell. The

The group had a problem on the venue on the activity proper. The activity was
supposed to be on the covered court of the barangay. however. the sound system was not
functioning and the rainfall was heavy. 4nstead. the health center was used so that the
participants can still hear the discussion. The uncontrolled noise has also become a
problem since the practicumers do not have sound system.

,ooking for an instructor became a problem to the group. The municipal Gumba
instructor could not be found whenever the group would go to the municipal office. 4n the
end. a known instructor around the barangay was found and was hired with the help of
the barangay health councilor. The group learned that for the activities that were being
prepared and e(ecuted in the barangay. it would be better to repeatedly notify andHor
remind the Barangay Development Council officials that would be involved.
Another identified problem for this activity was the venue. The venue was
supposed to be in front of the barangay hall. but unfortunately it had to be changed
because of the sudden rain fall. 4n addition to this. the class was moved in the afternoon
because the participants did not arrive in the morning. The initial venue for the afternoon
session was the barangay covered court. However the instructor insisted to transfer inside
the health center. There were no light bulbs inside. but he still insisted to do so. 4n the
end. it was agreed to hold the class inside for the comfort of everybody. rom this. the
group had learned to ad;ust to uncontrollable events such as weather changes. and to be
prepared all the time. The group also learned to be careful with scheduling of activities.

Thirteen mothers were oriented about the Pabasa sa Nutrisyon. The group
discussed the details of the activity. The participants were motivated to complete their
attendance by discussing the details of the graduation day including the program and
awards they may get.
After the orientation. the mothers were given the pre&test. 'nly 0!K or 7 out of
!0 of them got a passing score 2!#&0/3. The group guided a mother who is not capable of
reading and writing because she also wanted to learn.
The first session of Pabasa sa Nutrisyon was started after the pre&test. since it was
only an introduction and was done for ;ust a short period of time. The session was all
about the three basic food groups and balanced diet. The mothers were still shy to raise
their hands and answer the >uestions since they were still in the phase of ad;ustment. un
learning activity entitled C6arket @ame !D was played by the mothers. The group had
observed that the mothers were able to apply the lessons discussed. However. there were
still some points in which they had confusions especially with the groupings of foods into
@o. @low and @row. 9ith this. the $abasa leader conducted a recap of the lesson and
reviewed the game.

Although the group had always reminded the mothers that the activity will start at
-pm. they still came late. 8ome of them also brought their children in the session which
made it hard for the group to control the participants.
During the graduation day. there had been a delay in the program. The program
started one hour late because of technical problems. 9ith this. the mothers were
re>uesting to move the program in the afternoon since they still need to cook for the
lunch of their family.
Re$,,e!da*.!s"
An earlier call time may be set to avoid delay in the program. The group also
recommends having a CMaya of the dayD from the team to facilitate the children to avoid
getting the attention of their mothers during the discussion. 8ound system and a dry run
of the program for graduation day are advised to be conducted at least a day before the
activity.

'n the second week of CN$. the group was able to find good and already tested
T&shirt $rinting 8hop at E$,B. The printing shop offered $ !!/ for each shirt. inclusive
of shirt in any color and si:e. and printing. The group had the money 21/K of the total
price3 for the downpayment of !/1 pieces of shirts. However. on the day that the group
should pay the downpayment. the staff of the printing shop refused our payment because
he wanted to make the downpament F/K of the total price. so we ;ust went back on the
other day to complete first the F/K payment which is $ #./#1.//.
4t was a blessing in disguise that the staff did not accept our 1/K payment
because when we returned to the printing shop. it was already closed for good because
they were forced to leave the space for not paying their three years rent. 9e immediately
look for another printing shop at ,os BaIos and 8ta. Cru:.
The group found a good printing shop at 8ta. Cru:A however. their offered price
depends on the color and si:e of shirt. Although its price is really larger than the first.the
group immediately made orders to them to not disappoint the customers and also.
Re$,,e!da*.!s"
The group recommends having alternative printing shops to make the designed t&
shirts. Also. the customers are also needed to be reminded regarding the payment at least
a day before the deadline of the payment.

The group was challenged in inviting the participants who were willing to attend.
Also. punctuality of the participants was also a big challenge. This had affected the
schedule of the event as well as the schedule of the collaborators and speakers who were
present in the events.
C,,/!.$a*.!
The group was challenged to maintain a good communication with the barangay
officials as well as to the other people in the barangay. 8ince the practicumers were ;ust
new to the environment. certain ad;ustments have to be considered. Also. a good
communication was needed to maintain a smooth relationship with the people of the
barangay.
Wea*0er C!d.*.!
There are uncontrollable factors that should be considered when planning an
event. 9eather condition is one big factor. This had affected the punctuality and the
willingness of the participants to attend to the events and programs.
F.!a!$.a'
The group was limited with the funds they had raised from their fund raising
activities. 9ith this many activities. finance had been a great challenge to the group.
9ith this. resourcefulness had been developed within the group.

Coordination with the agencies and collaborators has also been a challenge for the
group. 4t is understandable since these people also have other commitments especially
those who have their own families.

III. Re$,,e!da*.!s
Par*.$.-a!*s
The group recommends to strongly coordinate with the BDC members who may
help to invite the participants. Also. motivational strategies are to be considered such as
snacks. pri:es and awards.
C,,/!.$a*.!
A proper communication should always be maintained with the people in the
barangay since this may affect the relationship of the people of the barangay with the
group.
Wea*0er C!d.*.!
Contingency plans or alternative plans should always be considered and prepared
by the group. These may help to have a smooth flow of the event and it is also to avoid
the delay of the programs.
F.!a!$.a'
und raising activities and solicitations is advisable to be done even before the
practicum proper. But the permission of the faculty should always be consulted.
Budgeting should also be strictly practiced by the group. The group may assign a
treasurer who is responsible for the monitoring of the groupBs financial matters.
Crd.!a*.!
Coordination with the agencies and collaborators should be done ahead of the
programs and events. This is for them to have a chance to check their schedule. 9ith this.
proper scheduling will be done.
