accomplish something for my learners. I have made a daily activity plan to guide me.
_______planner_____________

CASE 4: I need a poem to celebrate the World Teacher’s Day. I composed one to be used in
my class in Literature. ___writer________________

CASE 5: My class is composed of learners from different home background and culture. I
cannot use a “one-size-fits all strategy” in teaching so I can respond to the diverse background.
In my readings, I discovered that there are ways of teaching. I tried one myself and it worked.
_______knower____________

CASE 6: Knowledge is limitless. What I learned in college is not enough. I need to know more,
so I enrolled in the graduate school to advance my learning. _________knower__________

CASE 7: At the end of the year, my performance as a teacher is reflected in the school
performance of my students. So I need to provide a monitoring tool to measure how they are
progressing. The result will inform me how I will address my learners’ weakness and enhance
their strengths. _________evaluator___________

CASE 8: I am teaching in a very far away barangay with no electricity yet. Many of the
instructional aids for teaching sent to our school are films and video tapes which need power. I
cannot use them, but the lessons are very important. So I thought of thinking of making an
alternative activity. I took my class to the river and waterfall instead of doing the lesson.
___innovator
CASE 9: My principal asked me to attend a write shop to make the lesson exemplars in the
teaching of science in Grade 7. In the workshop, I used my experiences as a science teacher
for ten years, and my knowledge of the subject matter. At the end of three days, I was able to
produce lesson exemplars which I am proud of. __implementor__________________
CASE 10: In grade 7 to grade 10 of the K to 12 Enhanced Curriculum, science as a subject is
presented, taught and learned in a spiral manner. This is part of the DepEd implementing
guidelines of knowledge about the other areas of science such as Physics and Earth Science.
Because of this dilemma, I have to request the principal that we have team teaching. Which role
of the curricularist, am I trying to do? _____initiator______________
