1. Take note of the following:
• Your Resource Teacher comments, facial expressions, gestures and actions in class
- My Resource Teacher uses right facial expressions, gestures and actions in class
Analyze
1. From the PPTs, the Southeast Asia Teachers Competency Standards and the TEDx videos that
you viewed, what competencies does a great teacher possess?
- According to the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPSTs), great teacher never
stops when it comes to learning. When the teacher gained the qualification on becoming
professional teacher, the next stage will be the becoming proficient that can turn to a highly
proficient teacher and finally a distinguished one. Whereas, based on the frameworks given by
the
Southeast Asia Teachers Competency Standards, great teacher knows and understands what to
teach, helping students learn, engaging to the community, and becoming a better teacher every
day. Engaging themselves to teaching profession means engaging to a wider role that goes
beyond the classroom. From the video that I viewed; great teachers have deep understanding to
their students. They should know how to listen and understand every learner because every
learner has their own way of thinking. Additionally, great teachers have a power to bring out the
best version of their students. They have also deep understanding and they can see the potential of
the learner’s despite of the struggles and challenges that may encountered by the learner. They
facilitate every learner that can help to their future decisions and dreams.
3. For a teacher to be great, is it enough to possess the professional competencies to plan a lesson,
execute a lesson plan, manage a class, assess learning, compute and report grades? Explain your
answer.
- In my own perspective, professional competencies are not enough to be called a great
teacher because there are lot of qualities that can be possessed by the teacher that not required
professional competencies. Planning a lesson, executing a lesson plan, managing a class,
assessing learning, computing and reporting grades are part of professional competencies.
A great teacher doesn’t have always show their professional competencies. A great
teacher must possess also personal qualities such as ability to understand what is the learner’s
needs, interest, capabilities, strengths and weaknesses. A great teacher who can understand their
learners will be able to support and have knowledge on how they will handle their every learner
along their learning process. It is important to know and understand every learner because it can
help to determine whether the learner is struggling in learning or not. Also, the ability to captures
the interest and willingness of a learner to learn because a great teacher is a great communicator.
Reflect
Which personal traits do I possess? Not possess? Where do I need improvement in?
- For me, both are important because professional competencies and personal qualities are
equally essential as a teacher. In order to be called great teacher both professional competencies
and personal qualities should be possessed by them. Professional competencies are necessary to
learn the basics of methods of teaching, techniques also to plan a lesson, execute a lesson plan,
manage a class, assess learning, compute and report grades. Personal qualities including being
good communicator and interpersonal skills are required so that teacher can understand the needs,
interests, capabilities, strengths and weaknesses of a learner so that the learning process is
effective.
REFLECT
2. The lack of these personal traits and professional competencies (mentioned in #1) may be
caused by lack of connecting with students.
PLAN
3. I would like to address this problem (mentioned in #2) by conducting action research on
the impact of behavior in their learning process of grade 7 students.
ACT
4. a.) The main objective of my action research is to identify the impact of behavior to the
learning process of the grade 7 students. b.) My specific research questions are:
- What is the student profile in terms of age, gender, and family monthly income?
- What does the teacher can suggest to help the behavior of students?
- What are the strategies inside the classroom to motivate learning?
c) To answer my research questions, I will use the descriptive method to answer my specific
research questions.
Work on my Artifacts
As a future teacher, both professional competencies and personal qualities should be
possessed because it can help to facilitate learners. Professional competencies are more on
planning a lesson, executing a lesson plan, managing a class, assessing learning, compute and
report grades. Also, personal qualities should be considered as a teacher because it includes being
good communicator and interpersonal skills that can understand the needs, interests, capabilities,
strengths and weaknesses of a learner so that the learning process is effective.
Teachers must provide both professional competencies and personal qualities enable to
have skills that will help them work collaboratively and know how to understand every learner,
and choose the right learning strategy for learners. Teachers need a wide range of different skills
such as communication, critical thinking, empathy, listening and also digital skills in order to face
the complex challenges of today’s world. A great teacher who can understand their learners will
be able to support and have knowledge on how they will handle their every learner along their
learning process. A teacher who we remember the most was the one who are makes us realize that
we are capable of everything when it comes to learning.
As a future teacher, I will not stop learning enable to give more learnings to my future
learners and improve my skills so that I can determine and be considerate to the needs and
interests of my future students. I will strive to be better teacher to make the school a safe,
effective learning environment for all students.

I. Title of Action Research
III. Abstract
This action research project was conducted to improve reading comprehension of grade III
pupils of Baya Elementary School, Ragay District, Division of Camarines Sur for the school
year 2011-2012. The researcher intends to improve the reading comprehension by using the
higher-order thinking skills such as predicting, making connections, visualizing, inferring,
questioning and summarizing. In his classroom the researcher modeled these strategies through
the think- aloud process and graphic organizers. This is followed by the pupils using these
The pre-experimental one-shot case method of research was utilized in which the treatment
was the instruction of Reading strategies. Documentary analysis was also employed since the
results of schools PHIL-RI and Meta-comprehension Strategy Index were used as the source of
data. The researcher gathered information prior to implementing the strategy interventions. The
Meta-
comprehension Strategy Index indicated a lack of pupil’s knowledge of strategies to use
before, during, and after reading. The PHIL-IRI given to the grade III pupils identified 9 of the
16 pupils below target level.
The information gathered by the researcher after the intervention had been modeled and
practiced showed improvement with the grade III pupils. The post intervention scores for
the Meta-comprehension Strategy Index showed a significant increase in pupils’ knowledge of
the reading comprehension strategies. The Phil – IRI post intervention scores indicate only 2 of
the 49 pupils of the grade III pupils remained non-reader. The table on Level of reading
comprehension it shows that along frustration level, indicated a decrease of 32.65%, under
Instructional indicated an increase of 32.65% and 6.13% for Independent Level.
The objective of this research project was to improve reading comprehension in the thirdgrade
pupils through teacher modeling and think aloud process using six strategies. The researcher
used to predict, making connections, visualizing, inferring, questioning, and summarizing
strategies. Beginning in September 2011, the strategies were introduced and practiced over a
sixteen-week period ending with an assessment at the end of January 2012. The strategies were
first modeled by the researcher through the think aloud process and the use of graphic
organizer. Next the strategies were practiced by the whole class then small groups, and finally
independently.
V. Identify the Action Taken in the Study One tool the researcher used to collect data, analyze pupils’
use, and pupils’ understanding of the reading strategies was an observation checklist. Beginning in
October 2011, once a month, the researcher used checklist to observe which reading comprehension
strategies were being used by the pupils in small groups. The researcher found two problems with
using checklists. The researcher observed that pupils had a problem using the strategies within the
group setting without a guide sheet to follow. Therefore, the researcher developed a group record
keeping sheet for the various strategies pupils were to use before, during and after reading the story in
their group. This record keeping sheet aided the researcher in monitoring pupils’ progress since
observing groups at one time was a second problem.
Following the teaching of the reading strategies, the researcher administered
Metacomprehension Strategy Index (MSI) to see if the strategies changed pupils approaches in
reading. The
MSI measures pupils’ knowledge of reading strategies used before, during, and after reading. The
researcher noted the new activities led to an increase in pupils’ knowledge of the reading strategies in
all parts of the MSI.
Preparing
The Learning
Environment: An
Overview
What will you do to assist your mentor in setting up a conducive learning environment in the
following conditions:
Bulletin board is important in any educational setting. They can be used to give
information to students, reinforce lessons, display student work, and more. I can assist
my mentor in setting up an effective bulletin board by incorporating a theme to it, such as
school events or holidays. I can also contribute an appealing design and structure that
would help attract students’ attention, and would encourage them to interact with what’s
displayed on the board.
2. Small Group Discussion
Small group discussion is a method wherein students are formed in a small group to help
each other learn. While the teacher serves as a facilitator, my role during this method is to
become a class moderator. It should be my responsibility as a moderator to prohibit the
students from disrupting one another or speaking at the same time. In that way, I can help
maintain a peaceful and successful small group discussion.
In a virtual classroom, the teacher usually checks the attendance just like the way they
used to do in a face-to-face class. In this case, I can assist my mentor by keeping track or
a record of the student’s performance in terms of class-wise attendance and behavioral
analysis. By doing this, it eases the task of attendance and I could also help my mentor
manage data on real time basis.
Notice
Learning Environment 1:
• What have you noticed of the display in the class bulletin board? What message of theme
does it convey?
- Mission and Vision of the school
- Health board
Learning Environment 2:
• If the teacher is using a distance delivery of learning through the modules, where is most
likely the learning space of the students?
- Home
- The learning environment can be distracting because of different barriers can occur in
the learning process.
• How can you as a teacher help to make such environment conducive for learning?
- In a distance delivery, I can ask help to parents of the learners in promoting creativity
and critical thinking, which are important life skills that students should inculcate
when they are in school. Also, in giving the modules or learning materials I have to
be more creative it also helps students to stay focused and refreshed when studying.
Lastly, by giving rewards because students learn best when they are motivated and a
great way to keep them driven is by rewarding achievements.
Analyze
As a teacher, in which of the two situations would you prefer to manage for learning?
Choose between Learning Environment 1 or Learning Environment 2.
Explain your choice: Why?
- I chose Learning Environment 1 because it depicts the learners in classroom and it
can make students to have the opportunity to ask questions during the learning
process. It also allows students to participate in small group discussions, school
activities and classroom participation.
Reflect
REFLECT
What solutions can I think of to solve the problem?
To solve this problem, the teacher or the administrator should visit the homes of every student to
identify their problem and also how to solve them. The teacher also should have plans on how to
meet the learning outcomes of every learner’s and also to meet the needs and interests of learners.
Teachers should be creative and have the problem-solving skills.
PLAN
How should I do it?
Enable to identify the problem of the students the teacher should coordinate with school
administrator, parents and also the students. The teacher should create all of necessary learning
materials. As a teacher, the needs of the students should be provided by possessing professional
competencies and personal qualities. Also, the teacher should exert efforts and willingness to help
the learners in their learning process.

Reflect
Do you think making the learning environment conducive for a face-to-face classroom will enable
the leaners to achieve better learning outcomes? Yes. Explain your answer.
- Conducive learning environment will enable the learners to achieve better learning
outcomes because it motivates the students to learn. Also, the students will
continuously absorb the learning by themselves or with peers, and they will learn
how to reflect and explore on the learning they received.

Creating my
Classroom/Remote
Learning
Management Plan
Philosophical Statement
I will create a safe, enjoyable, and cooperative learning environment. Discipline will be applied
as soon as possible and as necessary. A well-designed remote learning provides opportunities
for learners to explore topics, piques their interest, and offers options for assignments the
learners find challenging and interesting.
To ensure the discipline of my students, I will establish classroom rules and procedures such as:
• Show your teacher respect and pay attention to what he or she is saying.
• Raise your hand to speak if you want to.
• Remain silent when your teacher speaks.
• Share new concepts
• Maintain a clean classroom at all times.
• Stick to the seating arrangement.
• Use positive language.
• Remain alert at all times.
• Obey all school regulations.
• Have a good behavior
Teacher-Student Relationship
In order to maintain positive relationships with my students, I will treat them equally and
having also respect for my students. I'll teach them to do the right thing and avoid wrong
doings. I will also teach them to have respect with one another. I find that using rewards rather
than punishments will keep them motivated. I'll teach them both how to speak and how to
listen
In terms of time and scheduling, I will organize my class schedule based on what the school
and I agreed upon. I should always consider my students' perspectives. I will make every
part of my lesson interesting and interactive in order to keep my students' attention on the task
at hand. I should always draw the attention of all of my students. I should also take into
account their emotions and circumstances.
I will provide materials that can help the development of my students in order to create a
conducive learning environment in my classroom. I will also include some technology that
we’ll use in class on a daily basis. Furthermore, in my classroom, I will eliminate anything that
can cause distractions and stress.
Classroom Safety Rules and Procedures
To ensure the safety and security of my students, I will provide a medicine cabinet in case
something goes wrong. For security reasons, I will impose rules such as requiring students to
sign to logbook whenever they are going outside the classroom. They should notify or a
security guard if they have any concerns. Also knowing their parents or guardian contact
number in case of an emergency, and prohibiting students from leaving campus during class
hours to ensure their safety.
Strategies for Rewards and Consequences
I intend to impose class rules and procedures that will hold students accountable for their
actions, and I believe that students will comply if sanctions and rewards are attached to each
rule.
Notice
After reading and reviewing the classroom/learning management plan from different
sources and creating your own plan, answer the following question.
- I noticed that as teachers, we should always be aware of each student's needs. In order for
students to learn and reflect, we must first know the needs of the students in order to
determine where we can help them. This episode will focus on classroom routines and
procedures.
2. Why is there need to utilize the information to create your classroom management plan?
3. What were the significant things that you noticed when you were implementing your
plan?
- The most important thing I've discovered while putting my plan into action is that planning
is the key to having a well-managed and organized classroom. The Classroom
Management Plan assists students in focusing on learning and understanding what is
expected of them. One of the primary goals of this plan is to provide a conducive and
effective learning environment .
4. Were there items in your classroom / remote learning management plan which were not
tailored to the needs of your students? How will you improve on this?
- No, and I believe that in order to improve, I should focus on the items that they will use
rather than those that will only be displayed in the classroom
Analyze
1. What elements in your classroom/remote learning management plan were mostly
followed/complied?
- The cleanliness of the classroom and the students' moral character were mostly followed;
respecting teachers and students, using positive language, and so on.
2. What elements in your plan were the most difficult to implement? Why?
- Have a good behavior was the most difficult aspect of my plan to implement because
some students can’t control their behavior without the teacher.
Reflect
What were your realizations after creating and implementing your classroom/ remote learning
management plan?
OBSERVE
1. The problems/ challenges I encountered in writing my classroom Management Plan is that
they are diverse; some of them have domestic responsibilities that may affect the

My Classroom Management Plan
Philosophical Statement
I will create a safe, enjoyable, and cooperative learning environment. Discipline will be applied
as soon as possible and as necessary. A well-designed remote learning provides opportunities
for learners to explore topics, piques their interest, and offers options for assignments the
learners find challenging and interesting.
To ensure the discipline of my students, I will establish classroom rules and procedures such as:
• Show your teacher respect and pay attention to what he or she is saying.
• Raise your hand to speak if you want to.
• Remain silent when your teacher speaks.
• Share new concepts
• Maintain a clean classroom at all times.
• Stick to the seating arrangement.
• Use positive language.
• Remain alert at all times.
• Obey all school regulations.
• Have a good behavior
Teacher-Student Relationship
In order to maintain positive relationships with my students, I will treat them equally and having
also respect for my students. I'll teach them to do the right thing and avoid wrong doings. I will
also teach them to have respect with one another. I find that using rewards rather than
punishments will keep them motivated. I'll teach them both how to speak and how to listen
In terms of time and scheduling, I will organize my class schedule based on what the school
and I agreed upon. I should always consider my students' perspectives. I will make every
part of my lesson interesting and interactive in order to keep my students' attention on the task
at hand. I should always draw the attention of all of my students. I should also take into
account their emotions and circumstances.
To ensure the safety and security of my students, I will provide a medicine cabinet in case
something goes wrong. For security reasons, I will impose rules such as requiring students to
sign to logbook whenever they are going outside the classroom. They should notify or a
security guard if they have any concerns. Also knowing their parents or guardian contact
number in case of an emergency, and prohibiting students from leaving campus during class
hours to ensure their safety.
Strategies for Rewards and Consequences
I intend to impose class rules and procedures that will hold students accountable for their
actions, and I believe that students will comply if sanctions and rewards are attached to each
rule.

lesson/learning plans?
- HOTS questions are important in learning plans and lessons. Also, use engaging
motivational activities in learning process.
4. What were the best features/areas for improvement of your lesson/learning plans?
- In my opinion, the best part of my lesson is when I allow students to create their
own thoughts about the topic. I believe it has the potential to promote learning because
students will collaborate to explore and discover things on their own. Meanwhile, one
aspect of my lesson that I can improve is the manner in which I will conduct motivational
activities wherein a strategy to avoid boredom.

REFLECT
Why is lesson planning an integral part of the instructional cycle?
- Lesson planning is an important part of the instructional cycle because it enables teachers
to plan ahead of time what they want their students to learn, what teaching and
learning activities they will use, and how they will assess understanding. It also
allows teachers to focus and to be guided on what they need for their lesson, what
they want to teach, and it establishes a time frame for what must be completed.

Paste one (1) lesson plan and write your simple reflection.
I realized that as a teacher, I must prepare a lesson plan so that I am able to be guided on what I
have to in class. I also learned that the strategies, methods, and techniques used in lesson
planning must encourage engaging student-centered activities in order to promote higher learning
processes and ensure that students retain the lessons well. I also realized that creating a
lesson plan is essential because it serves as a road map for reaching your objectives. It serves
as a guide for completing the lesson objectives. Furthermore, the fact that lesson planning
entails preplanning your lesson gives me confidence to discuss the subject. A lesson plan forces
you to predict when you will be able to finish the entire unit of your lessons and if you don't have
a lesson plan, you're planning to fail at delivering the lesson.
