LESSON 4
GUIDED PRACTICE
A. Observe your cooperating teacher in one of his/her classes. List ten (10) teaching strategies
that he/she used and determine the level of participation of the students.
Teaching Strategy Level of Participation
1. Lecture Low
2. Discussion High
3. Question and answer Medium
4. Demonstration Low/High
5. Gaming/Quiz Medium
6. Brainstorming High
7. Assignment High
8. Seminar Medium
9. Team teaching Low
10. Project High
B. Explain the guiding principles in selecting and using appropriate teaching strategies.
1. Learning is an active process.
• In recognizing that learning is an active process, effective teaching strategies should
engage students in activities that encourage participation, critical thinking, and
application of knowledge.
2. The more senses that are involved in learning, the more and the better learning.
• Acknowledging that the involvement of multiple senses enhances learning, educators
should employ diverse teaching strategies that incorporate visual aids, hands-on
experiences, and interactive discussions to optimize the learning process.
3. Emotion has the power to increase retention and learning.
• Harnessing the impact of emotion on learning, educators should create a positive and
supportive classroom environment, incorporating emotionally engaging content and
activities to enhance retention and overall comprehension.
4. Learning is meaningful when it is connected to students’ everyday life.
• To make learning meaningful, teachers should relate concepts to students’ everyday life,
fostering connections that help learners see the relevance and applicability of the
knowledge being imparted.
5. Good teaching goes beyond the recall of information.
• Beyond mere recall, effective teaching involves promoting deep understanding and
application of concepts, encouraging students to analyze, synthesize, and critically
evaluate information for a more comprehensive learning experience.
6. An integral teaching approach is far more effective than teaching isolated bits of information.
• Opting for an integral teaching approach that interconnects various topics fosters a deeper
understanding of the subject matter, as opposed to teaching isolated pieces of
information, promoting a more holistic and interconnected learning experience.
PROCESSING
Examine the data you have gathered. Answer the following questions:
1. Based on your observations, what is the common level of participations of the students to the
teaching strategies used by the teacher?
• It’s important for teachers to recognize that each student has their unique learning style
and preferences, and to incorporate a variety of teaching strategies to meet the diverse
needs of their students. By doing so, teachers can foster a more inclusive and engaging
learning environment that encourages active participation and promotes academic success
for all students.
2. Which among the guiding principles of selecting and using teaching strategies is the most
important? Why?
• I believe that the most important guiding principle of selecting and using teaching
strategies is to consider the diverse needs and learning styles of all students. This is
because every student has their unique way of learning and processing information, and a
good teacher should be able to recognize and accommodate these differences. By doing
so, the teacher can create an inclusive and engaging learning environment that promotes
active participation and academic success for all students.
4. Why do teachers need to use various teaching strategies?
• Teachers need to use various teaching strategies because each student has their unique
learning style and preferences, and a single strategy may not effectively engage and teach
all students. By using a variety of strategies, teachers can reach and teach students with
different learning styles, promote active participation, and foster a more inclusive and
engaging learning environment.
REFLECTION
Write your reflection by completing the following statements:
I realized that:
• Teachers need to consider the diverse needs and learning styles of all students when
selecting and using teaching strategies.

11. Is it well made?
Use
12. Has your cooperating teacher invited the cooperation of the
students?
13. Does it attract attention?
1. All instructional materials are aids to construction. They do not replace the teacher.
• This principle highlights the fact that instructional materials are meant to support the
teacher’s role in facilitating learning, rather than replacing them. Teachers should not rely
solely on instructional materials to deliver instruction, but rather use them as tools to
enhance their teaching and promote student learning.
2. Choose the instructional material that best suits your instructional objectives.
• When selecting instructional materials, teachers should consider the specific learning
objectives they want to achieve and choose materials that align with those objectives.
This ensures that the materials are effective in supporting student learning and helps to
avoid using materials that may not be relevant or useful for the lesson.
4. Check out your instructional material before class starts to be sure it is working properly.
• Before using any instructional material in class, teachers should ensure that it is in
working order and ready for use. This includes checking for technical issues, ensuring
that all necessary components are available, and testing the material to ensure that it
functions as intended. This helps to avoid any potential disruptions or delays during class
time.
PRROCESSING
