ANALYZE
How do the school campus and the classroom in particular impact the learning of the students going to
school? What are your conclusions?
-By collecting data on teacher interview I conclude that the teacher can identify which physical aspects
of their classroom need to be improved. Changing the classroom environment can increase academic
engagement and decrease disruptive behavior classroom design has the power to impact students well-
being and motivation either for better or for worse.
How does this relate to your knowledge of child and adolescent development/ how does this relate to
your knowledge of facilitating learning?
-Children, even adults learn, through their senses different stimuli from environment affect the way they
perceive. If the school campus and classroom smells stinky or noisy children may not be interested to
learn. This is because the environment has a great impact to the learning of the student going to school
REFLECT
1. Would you like to teach in the school environment you just observed? Why ? Why not?
When we talk about the school environment I would say yes because the school is not a very big,
they have a less number of students which I can think may the teaching and learning process easier.
But on the other hand, the location of the school is a bit far from where I live.
2. What kind of school campus is conducive learning?
A school campus that is conducive to learning is a pollution free campus whether it is a noise, air or
water pollution. Different facilities, materials and equipment are also present for the teaching and
learning process to become efficient and effective.
3. What kind of classroom is conducive to learning?
The classroom should be decorated with items related to the classroom theme. It should be also
quiet, tidy, properly lit and ventilated. A classroom should have a nice ambiance which help students
feel comfortable, safe and conducive for teaching and learning. A set of rules and regulations on how
students must behave in any circumstances is set and clearly understood by the students.
4. In the future, how can you accomplish your answer in the number 3?
In the future, to accomplish or to have a classroom that is conclusive to learning I should create a
classroom that encourage interaction. Having calm discussion with the students can help them to be
motivated towards positive behavior. I will also make the best out of my classroom space.

REFLECT
1.Name at least five skills that you a teacher should have to be able to come up with effective board
displays. Elaborate on why each skill is needed.
-A teacher should have at least five skills to be able to come up to a effective board displays. These are
the following: Creativity, Resourceful. Originality, Good in Communication and Artistic. Teachers need
to be creative in presenting concepts and content in an interesting way. Resourceful to use the means at
one's disposable to meet the situations and to conserve teacher’s time, effort and money. Next is
originality, it is a work created in a unique style and substance in order for the students to be attracted on
the board. Also an educator needs good communication skill, he should know that words combined with
visual content can often communicate more that words and students can easily comprehend the message.
Lastly, a teacher needs to be artistic to visualize the presentation effectively and impacts them what they
want to apply to the display. They are somewhat like a interior designer.
2.Which of the skills you named # 1 do you already have? Recall your past experiences in making board
displays. How do you practice these skills?
-I think the skills that I already have is being creative and resourceful as I remembered in my past
experiences in making board displays and scrapbooks. I practice my skills by making those stuffs and
browsing on the internet and doing it in real situation. I usually collects recyclable materials and use it
for designing. I think I was able to make some that look like new and presentable.
3Which skills do you still need to develop? What concrete steps will you take on how you can improve
on or acquire these skills.
-The skills I need to develop is Communication skills. I admit I still have imperfect grammar sometimes
and it makes people confused. I should have improve this skill by practicing and studying by all means
the right way to make it correct and better.
