INTRODUCTION
It is said that education is the gate and the key of everything. Being ignorant doesn’t
mean you’re nothing; remember that there is always a chance to learn. Learning always existing,
it’s up to you on how you’re going to apply everything. There are times that most knowledgeable
person will lose in a bottle against those uneducated one, maybe because they are very confident
that their learning is more than enough to win the battle but they forgot to use it in a good way,
and in a fair way.
Because of the challenges that are happening n our lives today, everyone is aiming to
become educated, to know everything and become updated with all the things. Not all may grant
the thing that they wanted to become but by the great courage and wisdom they can surpass and
pursue what they really wanted to be. Educators have that great contribution in the success of
everyone for they are foundation of the knowledge that they are using in the daily lives.

Being a teacher is a noble profession. It is a job that your heart should love; in teaching young
children, doing a ton of paper works, taking care of your students and the school itself. A teacher
should always step and walk in the school with courage and passion to continue the job that its
heart choose.
Before, I thought that the role of a teacher only ends at the four corners of the classroom. I
thought that teachers only gives the lessons to its students and leave the school. But through this
field study I realized that teachers work to build a future, successful and respectful individuals. It
is a job that carries a big responsibility in making a beautiful community; a community of good
professionals. Teachers help the students to grow and discover themselves; their talents and
where they are good. Teachers are the one who encourage and pursue their students to get out in
their comfort zone and to be somebody. They direct the students to follow the path where they
become successful in the future.
Teachers and we future teachers must believe that we have something to do, this is to build,
create and form a good young individuals. We are one of the instruments that help them engage
in the school activities and in the community.

LEARNING
FIELD STUDY 1 EPISODE
FS 1 1
SPARK Your Interest
This episode 1 provides an opportunity for students to examine and reflect on a school
environment that promotes learning and development.
At the end of this episode, I must be able to determine the characteristics of a school
environment that is safe, secure, and is supportive of learning (PPST 2.1.1).
1. A physical environment conducive for learning is one that has consistent practices that:
Keep the school safe, clean, orderly and free from distraction;
Maintain facilities that provide challenging activities; and
Address the physical, social, and psychological needs of the students.
3. As a basic part of the school’s visual environment, display boards have for general
purposes:
Decorative- they offer visual stimulation and appeal to aesthetics. They set the social
and psychological atmosphere of the school.
Motivational - they encourage students to perform better and have greater confidence.
An example would be the display of students’ outputs that show that each output is
recognized and valued. The bulletin boards help celebrate the learners’ growth and
progress.
Informational - they are used as a strategy to readily disseminate information.
Instrumental - they move students to respond and participate through interactive
displays. They get students to think about and communicate their learning.
4. The set of criteria for evaluating bulletin board displays includes effective
communication, attractiveness, balance, unity, interactivity, legibility, correctness, and
durability.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 8
To realize the Intended Learning Outcome, work my way through these steps:
1. Visit a school, look into facilities and support learning areas in the campus, then in the
classroom.
2. Observe and use the checklist as you move around the school premises.
3. Analyze your gathered data about the school environment.
4. Reflect on the characteristics of a school environment that promotes learning.
5. Present your idea of a good school environment through any of these:
a) Descriptive paragraph b) Photo essay
c) Sketch or drawing d) Poem, song or rap
OBSERVE
As you move around the campus, observations forms are provided for you to document
your observations. It is advised that you read the entire worksheet before proceeding to the
school site. A good understanding of the activities and tasks to be accomplished in the activity
sheets will yield better learning results.

MY OBSERVATION
As I entered the school, I noticed that the campus was clean and had many tables and chairs
placed under the trees. The flower gardens in front of classrooms and offices added to the
campus's charm. As for the classrooms, they didn't have much space inside, but they could
accommodate the entire class. They looked plain and didn't have any posters or decorations on
the walls. The equipment they used, like televisions, wasn't too large.
The overall school appearance was excellent. They are approachable and well-equipped in terms
of teachers, faculties, and amenities. The facilities both on the outside and inside of the campus
were also examined, and they accommodate individuals with special needs.
During class observation, I noticed that students in different sections had different
behaviors.There are students in the class that are very participative when it comes to answering
the teachers question and one thing that I amazed is that almost of the boys are very participative
compare to the girls. However, there also some who weren't paying attention or participating in
the class. Some students were noisy, others were sleeping, and a few were busy with their own
activities.
ANALYZE
How do the school campus and the classroom in particular impact the learning of
the students going to school? What are your conclusions?
- The campus appears clean and peaceful, and the classrooms don't have any posters on the
walls. This helps students stay focused and motivated to learn because the environment is
pleasant and comfortable.
How does this relate to your knowledge of child and adolescent development?
- Classrooms at the institution are especially important for students' growth and learning because
they spend most of their time there. These classrooms play a significant role in shaping their
development and educational journey.
1. Would you like to teach in the school environment you just observed?
Why? Why not?
- Yes, because the school environment, especially the educators, motivate me to explore and
experience more about the real-life role of being a teacher. Watching how teachers handle
students and various situations inspires me to serve and educate students.
- As a future educator, I've noticed that the learning environment affects students views about
learning. So, having a clean and relaxing school environment and classrooms will significantly
enhance students learning. It will help them stay focused, motivated, and develop into positive,
motivated, and develop into positive individuals as they pursue their education.
The display board, or what we are commonly refer to as bulletin board, is one of the most
readily available and versatile learning resources.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 16
To achieve the Intended Learning Outcomes, work your way through these steps: 1.
Examine for bulletin board displays. Include samples of those found at the entrance, lobby,
hallways and classrooms. 2. Pick one and evaluate the display. 3. Propose enhancements to make
the display more effective.
OBSERVE
As you look around and examine board displays, use the observation guide and forms

An electronic (computer) drawing/illustration or layout
A collage
ANALYZE
Did the board display design reflect the likes/interest of its target audience? Why? Why not?
- Yes, I can say that boards overall concept reflect the interest of its students in a way that
directly adds to the progress and interest of kids, instructors, and other school personnel.
Was the language used clear and simple for the target audience to understand? Why? Why not?
- Yes, the language used was clear and simple for the target audience to understand because you
can instantly understand its content just by looking at it.
Yes, it is effective because learners can stay updated about specific announcements and
intructionss to follow. This will help students to apply what is posted in the school bulletin.
What suggestions can you make?
I think adding more bulletin boards around the campus would be advantageous, as it would help
keep students, teachers and other school personnel informed about school activities and events.
Based on your suggestions, propose an enhanced version of the display board. Use the form
below.
My Proposed Board Display
Theme: Latest update with regards to important announcement, upcoming Activities, and the
memorandum of the school

• The inform students, educators and other personnel of important announcements, upcoming
ativities and the school memorandum.
Objectives:
Organized – the information was well arranged. divided into three sections, with one side for
announcement, another for activities and the last is for memorandum.
Attractive – the simplicity of board display makes it more appealing and not distracting to
viewers.
Effective communication - The posted materials is easily understood since it is clear and well-
organized
Content Resources (Name each needed resources and give each a brief description):

the viewer.
• Glue, tape, pins and etc. – helps to attach chosen object on bulletin boards.
Materials for aesthetic enhancement:
The following supplies should be employed to improve aesthetics, colorful paper, sticker,
images, decorative tapes and most importantly, glass to make it clean and durable.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 22
REFLECT
1. Name at least five skills that a teacher should have to be able to come up with effective board
displays. Elaborate on why each skill is needed.
Creative - Teachers must be creative when making bulletin boards to engage students. They
should use imaginative designs, especially for important announcements.
- Critical thinking - Teachers should understand where the information comes from and spot
any mistakes when creating a bulletin board display.
- Resourceful - Being resourceful is necessary since purchasing new materials is not good
idea and it helps reduce waste.
- Systematized - Teacher must also be systematic in arranging materials needed.
- Technology literate - Teacher should know how to use different various of technology since
board display need some information or design made in technology.
2. Which of the skills you named in # 1 do you already have? Recall your past experiences in
making board displays. How do you practice these skills?
- Among the five skills mentioned, I believe I am resourceful, and as a future educator, I consider
this skill essential for creating bulletin board displays. It's not only about making our boards look
good and creative but also about inspiring the audience to be resourceful.
3. Which skills do you need to develop? What concrete steps will you take on how you can
improve on or acquire these skills?
- I think being technology literate, honestly, im not very good with technology, even though I
know some basics. That's why I want to become better at using technology, especially since there
are many useful tech tools for education nowadays. To improve my skills, I think I need to focus
on learning about specific types of technology I need to know. It's also important to practice and
get familiar with them so that I can easily get better at using technology.

FIELD STUDY 1 EPISODE Focus on Gender, Needs, Strengths, Interests,
Experiences Language, Race Culture, Religion, Socio-
FS 1 3
economic Status, Difficult Circumstances, and
Indigenous Peoples
Episode 3 provides an opportunity to observe how differences and gender, racial, cultural
and religious backgrounds, including coming from indigenous groups influence learner behavior,
interaction, and performance in school. One will also analyze and reflect on practices that
teachers used in leveraging diversity in the classroom. It also provides an opportunity to observe
how differences in abilities affect interaction in school and learn about strategies that teachers
used in addressing the learners needs toward effective teaching and learning.
2. The PPST highlighted the following factors that bring about the diversity of learners:
a. Differences in learners’ gender, needs, strengths, interests, and experiences
b. Learners' linguistic cultural socioeconomic and religious backgrounds
c. Learners with disabilities, giftedness, and talents
d. Learners under challenging circumstances which include geographic isolation,
chronic illness, displacement due to armed conflict, urban resettlement or
disasters, child abuse, and child labor.
Effective teachers are knowledgeable about how issues related to the factors mentioned
affect learners. The teachers develop in them sensitivity and empathy. They remember that the
learners respond and perform at different levels. The teachers assure the students that their
gender identity, culture and religion are respected, their strengths are recognized, and their
needs will be met. These teachers declare to all that everyone has the chance to learn and
succeed. They create a learning community where everyone can work together and contribute
regardless of their abilities, capacities and circumstances.
Teachers who celebrate and leverage student diversity in the classroom:
Activity 3.1 Observing differences among learners' gender, needs, strengths, Interests,
and experiences; and differences among learners' linguistic, cultural, socio-
economic, religious backgrounds, and difficult circumstances.
The learners' differences and the type of interaction they bring surely affect the quality of
teaching and learning. This activity is about observing and gathering data to find out how student
diversity affects learning.
To realize the Intended Learning Outcomes, work your way through these steps:
Step 1. Observe a class in different parts of a school day. (Beginning of the day, class time,
recess, etc.)
Step 2. Describe the characteristics of the learners in terms of age, gender, and social and
cultural diversity.
Step 3. Describe the interaction that transpires inside and outside the classroom
Step 4. Interview your Resource Teacher about the principles and practices that she uses in
dealing with diversity in the classroom.
Step 5. Analyze the impact of individual differences on learners’ interactions.
The observation form is provided for me to document my observations.
OBSERVE
Read the following carefully before you begin to observe. Then write your observation
report on the space provided on the next page.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 35
1. Find out the number of students. Gather data as to their ages, gender, racial groups
religious, and ethnic backgrounds.
During class:
1. How much interaction is there in the classroom! Describe how the students interact with
one another and with the teacher. Are there groups that interact more with the teacher
than others.
• Theres a lots of interaction happening inside the classroom. It usually happened during
the discussion some students are very participative by simple raising their hand to answer
questions, add opinions and ideas. While it mostly happened when both students are
interacting with each other when they talking and doing some things.
2. Observe the learners seated at the back and the front part of the room. Do they behave
and interact differently?
• During my observation, I've noticed that students seated in the front are generally more
behaved during class compared to the students seated at the back. Those in the back often
engage in conversations with their seatmates, use their cellphones, and sometimes do not pay
attention to the class discussion. However, it's worth noting that some of them also participate
by answering questions when the teacher asks.
3. Describe the relationship among the learners. Do the learners cooperate with or compete
against each other?
• The students have a good relationship with each other, and as I noticed, they don't compete
with each other; instead, they support each other and correct mistakes when they occur.
4. Who among the students participate actively? Who among them ask for most help?
• There's some students who actively participate during the class it's either boys or girls
which mostly seated in front since they can foucuse and afraid making noise because the
teacher is in front of them. I can say that some of the students asking for help it's either
students seated in front and back. Asking is help is a part of students learning in as a teacher
it's a good feed back to able to know if the learning is effective or not.
5. When a student is called and cannot answer the teacher's question, do the classmates try
to help him? Or do they raise their hands, so that the teacher will call them instead?
•Yes, during my observation, there's always a scenario inside the classroom where a student
is called to answer the teacher's questions, but they can't answer. Instead, other students,
without hesitation, raise their hands if they know the answer. If it's not the case, the teacher
calls on someone else, especially those students who are not listening to the lesson being
discussed.
Outside class:
• As I've noticed, everyone is openly accepted regardless of their age, gender, ethnic groups,
or even interests. Everyone has their circle of friends, whether it's a mixed group of boys and
girls, gays, or even within their specific grades. Everyone is friendly, and they seem happy and
contented within the groups where they belong.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 36
2. Notice students who are alone and those who are not interacting. Describe their behavior.
•Some of the students who are alone and not interacting, especially with their peers, are what
we call introverted individuals, whether they are boys or girls in the class. One behavior I've
observed about them is that they don't like talking to their seatmates like others do; instead,
they simply listen to the discussion every time there is one or engage in other activities that
interest them. But one thing I've noticed is that almost all of them with this behavior can
provide correct answers to the teacher's questions.
Interview the teachers and ask about their experience about learners in difficult circumstances.
Request them to describe these circumstances and how it has affected the learners. Ask about
the strategies they use to help these learners cope.
Ask the teachers about strategies they apply to address the needs of diverse students due
to the following factors
OBERVATION REPORT
sharing ideas, and answering questions. I've noticed that those in the front tend to behave
better than those in the back, who often chat with friends, use phones, or lose focus.
However, some back-seat students still participate when the teacher asks. The students
have a friendly relationship and support each other rather than competing. Some boys and
girls in the front participate more because they can concentrate and avoid making noise.
And lastly, students asking for help is important feedback for teachers to gauge effective
learning.
When it comes to outside class, everyone is openly accepted, regardless of their age,
gender, ethnic background, or interests. Everyone has their circle of friends, whether it's a
mixed group of boys and girls, or within their specific grade levels. Everyone is friendly,
and they appear happy and content within their respective social groups. Some students
who don't interact much with their peers, can be described as introverted. I've observed
that they don't engage in conversations with their other, instead they prefer to be alone.
ANALYZE
1. Identify the persons who play key roles in the relationships and in and interactions in the
classroom. What roles do they play? Is there somebody who appears to be the leader, a
mascot/joker, as attention seeker, a little teacher, a double pessimist
• In the class, there is always a student who plays some of these roles, even in different
sections. Some of these are what we call a leader, who always stops their classmates from
making noise every time they have class; an attention-seeking kind of student who constantly
seeks ways to get their classmates' attention; and, of course, the joker students who are the reason
why relationships and interactions keep building because their humor serves as a bonding
element among them as classmates.
What makes the learners assume these roles? What factors affect their behavior!
• Learners assume various roles like being a joker, attention seeker, or leader due to a
combination of personal and emotional factors. These factors include their personality traits,
beliefs, expectations, emotions, and mental health, all of which can influence their behavior in
these roles.
2. Is there anyone you observed who appear left out? Are students who appear “different?”
Why do they appear different? Are they accepted or rejected by the others? How is this
shown?
• No, everyone in the class has embraced their own uniqueness. They are different in a good
way, and both are accepted for who they are inside and outside the four corners.
What does the teacher do to address issues like this?
• If there's a possible issue that happens, I think the teacher should apply fairness inside the
classroom because I do believe every student should be treated fairly, and everyone should be
appreciated despite their differences.
How does the teacher influence the class interaction considering the individual differences of the
students?
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 38
• The teacher influences class interaction by simply promoting fairness inside the classroom
despite students' differences and also by encouraging students to be kind and considerate with
their peers.
3. What strategies does the teacher use to maximize the benefits of diversity in the classroom?
How does the teacher leverage diversity!
• The teacher develops a friendly relationship with her students, encouraging them to be open
to communication and instilling respect in the classroom by allowing them to discuss their
cultural backgrounds. ••The teacher also tries to incorporate cultural differences into every lesson
in any way she can, for example, by using activities that allow students to learn about each
other's cultures, such as sharing, role-playing, and so on.
REFLECT
1. How did you feel being in that classroom? Did you feel a sense of oneness or unity
among the learners and between the teacher and the learner?
• I felt welcome and comfortable since the teachers starting day one have been very kind and
humble, as well as the students, who show their respect to us even though we are just in our field
study to observe. They are very interactive with each other, both teachers and learners, especially
if they do exciting parts related to their discussion, which, as an observer, made us feel united
with them as we also enjoyed what they were doing. But sometimes, I can say that we also feel a
sense of oneness since we are just in the back doing our observation and we can't interact with
them more.
Activity 3.2 Observing differences among learners with disabilities, giftedness, and
talents.
To realize the Intended Learning Outcomes, work your way through these step.
1. Observe at least two of these classes
a.SPED class with learners with intellectual disabilities
b. SPED class with acts with physical disabilities
c.SPED class for the gifted and talented
d. a regular class with inclusion of learners with disabilities
2. Note the needs of the learners that the teacher should address
3. Interview the teachers to find out more about the learners.
4. Write your observation report
5. Analyze your observation data
6. Reflect on your experience
OBSERVE
Use the observation guide provided for you to document your observations
Read the following carefully before you begin to observe. Then write your observation report
on the space provided
• I have noticed that the students have their own different abilities, specifically their own
uniqueness. During my observation inside the four corners, some of the students were very
participative by simply answering the teacher's questions during the discussion and giving
their own ideas, opinions, or even experiences relating to the lesson they had. I was amazed
that the majority who always participate are the boys, and it makes me happy to see them that
they always raise their hands. But, opposite to that, there are also students who are not similar
to what others did. In the classroom where I was assigned to make my observation, I didn't see
any students with special needs they were just regular students. As I've observed, teachers
methods of teaching are very effective with the students, so they keep participating, asking,
and raising their hands.Teachers always accommodate everyone's needs they are all treated
equally so that the interactions between them are good.
OBSERVATION REPORT
ANALYZE
2. Describe the differences inability level of the students in the class? What practices or
strategies are done or should be done to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of the
learners?
• The students have different levels of ability some of them have lower ability, which makes it
difficult for them to understand the class lessons, while others have high ability, which makes it
easy for them to acquire knowledge and skills. I think the strategies the teacher should use to
meet the needs of the learners, specifically those who have lower abilities, are to make his or her
lesson relatable to the real-life scenario and, of course, set a good example so that they can
understand it clearly.
3. Describe the methods used by the teacher in handling the students’ differences in abilities.
How did the students respond to the teacher? Did the teacher use differentiate instruction? If
yes, describe how?
• As I've observed, the teacher's method of handling student differences is treating them
equally, like everyone is free to share ideas and opinions, and he always answers everyone's
questions. So that the interaction goes well and the lesson is enjoyable and understandable for the
learners.
REFLECT
1. Recall the time when you were in elementary or high school. Recall the high and low
achievers in your class. How did your teacher deal with differences in abilities? Was your
teacher effective?
• I remember that during elementary school, I had some of my classmates who weren't able to
read English fluently even when we were in grade. What my teacher did was assign students who
could teach students who had a hard time reading that particular subject. It was memorable to me
since I was assigned it to my cousin to teach her to read. I can say that teachers are effective
because everyone who has low achievers makes progress, and those who have high achievers let
him share knowledge and ideas by simply helping fellow classmates.
2. What dispositions and traits will you need as a future teacher to meet the needs of the
learners?
• As a future educator, I need to meet the needs of my students through the use of effective
strategies for them to learn, improve skills, and grow as good individuals. I need to be committed
to my students, set good examples, and lastly, interact with them equally and without
discrimination

As I watched the provided video, it focused on the National Indigenous Peoples' education,
which emphasizes the importance of learning, even in remote areas where they face poverty
and a lack of learning resources. They believe in their right to education, fighting for their
rights, and preserving their culture. They are eager to learn, not just for themselves but also for
their culture. Because of the DepEd order, it acknowledges past mistakes, which serves as an
invitation for indigenous people like them to change their perspective from what they grew up
with.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 43
As we know, many indigenous people didn't attend school because they didn't value education
due to their cultures where education wasn't seen as very important in their society. But
because of the DepEd order, our indigenous brothers and sisters are gradually realizing the
great importance of education. That's why, nowadays, many indigenous people have graduated
and achieved their dreams. They are the proof that education know no tribe or status in life
because it is for all.

and knowledgeable about their culture and language so that they can make good communication
and relationships to each other.

2. What did you appreciate most from your experience in visiting the school with indigenous
learners? Why?
• As I've done, my virtual visit on social media, I really appreciate first the missionary teachers
who are dedicated to their job just to go in the far and remote place where the indigenous
children live so that they can teach and do their job as a teacher. And lastly I really appreciate IP
students who have a strong and dedicated heart. Despite the inconsistencies and lack of material,
they are willing to learn for their future.
Uphold and celebrate their culture, beliefs, and practices by learning their own culture and
language.
With the principle of individual differences in mind, what methods and strategies will
you member in the future to ensure that you will be able to meet the needs of both the high
and low achievers in your class? Make a collection of strategies on how to address the
students' difference ability levels.
Teaching Strategies
Invest time in getting to know each of my students so that I will be able to know their
strengths, weaknesses, interests, and objectives in life for me to build rapport and respond
to their needs since they are all different from each other.
Reduce pressure impose to them but rather make motivating and enjoying activities for
them to have fun while learning.
Allow the use of Filipino and English language for recitations or question and to answer
inquiry so that all my students will be given an opportunity to share their ideas, learnings,
and opinions with less pressure.
Vary the subject related activities and tasks into individual, group, and pair work so that
students have an opportunity to interact, communicate, forms relationship and learn from
their classmates for them to be able to relate with one another.
Pay close attention to the low achievers in class and conduct a counseling to discover
their problems, difficulty and even hindrances to their focus in learning so as a teacher
one will be able to address it accordingly.

kinesthetic learning, differentiated instruction, inquiry-based learning, exploratory
learning, game-based learning, and students-center learning to match the multiple
intelligence of the students: verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, intrapersonal,

Environment
Episode 4 provides opportunities for you to have more in-depth look into the factors that affect
the development of a learner. Focus will be on the early experiences and characteristics of the leaner
as described by the family and other significant others. You will also focus how the teacher links
with the community to maximize the learning and development of students.
The model helps the teacher investigate every aspect in the learner's environment to understand
his behavior. The teacher's important role is not to replace what is missing at home (if any), but to
work so that the school becomes an environment that welcomes and nurtures families. The teacher
works to create work to create a partnership with the family and the community to bring out the best
in every learner.
Authoritarian. Parents are very firm with their child and expect unwavering and unquestioning
obedience. Rules are set by parents and misbehavior is met with withdrawal of affection,
physical punishment or threats.
Permissive. Parents are not firm or controlling. They have few expectations. May be warm and
caring but appear to be uninvolved and uninterested.
Rejecting-Neglecting. Parents are disengaged with children. Neither demanding nor responsive to
children. Provide no structure, supervision, support or guidance.

SPARK Your Interest
This learning Episode provides an opportunity to mine how classrooms are structured or
designed to allow everyone's maximum participation for effective learning. You should be able to
examine how classroom management practices affect learning. This Episode enhances the
application of the theories learned in the following professional subject such as Facilitating learner
Centered-Teaching and The Child and Adolescent Learners and Learning Principles
.
TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome
OBSERVE
Observe and use the observation sheet provided for you to document your observations
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 60
1. As you observe the class, investigate the characteristics of the learners. Note their ages.
• As I observed, each student in the class has different characteristics inside the classroom.
Some are noisy and not attentive, while others are kind and participative. These are just some of
the characteristics I see in the classroom. The students' ages range from 14 to 15 years old.
• The student population inside the classroom is 49, with 10 boys and 28 girls.
2. Focus on their behavior. Are they already able to manage their own behavior?
• I can say that some of the students who can manage their own behavior inside the
classroom are mostly girls. As I've noticed, some of them behave maturely and have matured
thinking. However, the majority of boys in the section are unable to manage their own behavior.
Some of them are attention seeker, and display other disruptive behaviors.
ANALYZE
Analyze and answer these questions on observed classroom management practices. It is also
good to ask the teacher for additional information, so you can validate your observation. Write
your notes below; and then organize your data in the Table that follows.
1. Are there areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage age of teaching aids, books,
students' belongings, supplies, etc.). Describe these areas. Will it make a difference is
these areas for specific purposes are not present?
• The classroom has several areas, including a section for cleaning materials located on
the left side of the room at the back, along with a table in the front equipped with teaching
aids. The students keep their belongings on their own chairs. Having well-organized
classroom areas makes a difference as it helps students to learn more easily and also
motivates the teachers.
2. Are there rules and procedures posted in the room? List them down. Do these rules
reinforce positive behavior?
• No, there are no rules posted on the classroom wall due to the DepEd order.
3. Did the students participate in making the classroom rules? If the Resource Teacher is
available, ask him/her to describe the process. What's the effect of student’s participation
in rulemaking on student's behavior?
• Yes, students play an important role in establishing classroom rules as it helps guide
them on what to do and what not to do, enabling them to understand their limitations.
4. What are the daily routines done by the Resource Teacher? (Prayer, attendance,
assignment of monitors, warm-up activities, etc.) How are they done?
• As I observed, my resource teacher's daily routine includes starting the class with a
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 61
prayer, checking the attendance to identify absent students, monitoring the students'
assignments/projects, and conducting activities such as asking the previous topic covered.
5. Is there a seating arrangement? What is the basis of this arrangement? Does this help in
managing the class?
• Yes, the seating arrangement is organized in two columns with alternating boys and girls,
allowing them to socialize with the opposite sex. This arrangement will help students focus in
class and learn effectively.
• The students' level of noise is moderate; sometimes they are noisy in a positive way
when they want to share their experiences, ideas, or answer questions related to the
discussed topic. I noticed that the teacher is able to manage the class by addressing the
noisy students by name, ensuring they don't distract their classmates.
7. If a learner is not following instruction or is off task, what does the Resource Teacher do?
Describe the behavior strategies used.
• Based on my observation, the teacher repeats the lesson and provides the simplest
instructions possible in such cases.
8. What does the Resource Teacher do to reinforce positive behaviors? (Behavior strategies)
• As I noticed, the teacher always emphasizes and ensures respect for both the students and
the teacher. He also employs a strategy of complimenting students' performance and accepting
everyone's ideas and opinions.
REFLECT
Reflection as a future teacher
• It is necessary to the teachers to establish a positive discipline among students in order for
them to constructively handle the disputes that may develop in the classroom without being too
harsh on children. Implementing positive discipline helps students manage misbehaviors and
build confidence and self-esteem, it also helps to foster strong relationships between teachers and
students, which is one of the most essential things. Through this it easier for the instructor to
instill good morals and ethics in the students.

Activity 5.2 Identifying the Different Aspects of Classroom Management Resource Teacher
OBSERVE
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT MATRIX
ANALYZE
1. How did the classroom organization and routines affect the learners' behavior?
• The organization and routines of the classroom significantly affect students' learning behavior
by helping them understand their limitations, learn how to follow rules, and, most importantly,
effectively aid in their development as learners.
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 63
2. What should the teacher have in mind when she/he designs the classroom organization and
routines? What theories and principles should you have in mind?
• The teacher should keep in mind that he or she is the one who creates the
classroom order and routines for her students. He or she must be able to visualize the outcome
of his or her activities and be knowledgeable about arranging and implementing procedures. It
should have a beneficial and effective effect on the students' learning. Behaviorism is one of the
theories and ideas to keep in mind because it incorporates repetitive actions, verbal
reinforcement, and incentives to participate. It is excellent for creating rules, particularly for
behavior management within the room.
3. Which behavior strategies were effective in managing the behavior of the learners? In
motivating students? Why were they effective?
• I think one effective way to manage student behavior is through the use of positive
reinforcement. The teacher can offer rewards or positive comments for each positive action the
student takes in a give-and-take process. This approach can help keep learners motivated to do
well and actively participate in classroom learning."
REFLECT
Reflect on the following and write your insights.
1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade year level do you see
yourself? What routines and procedures would you consider for this level. Why?
• I imagine myself handling Grade 8 students, as I would love to interact with students who are
participative, obedient to the teachers, and retain the innocence of their developmental stage as
teenagers. As a teacher, I aim to develop practical routines and practices to maintain a neat and
conducive classroom for learning. My goal is to create a classroom where they feel comfortable
and at home while learning, with specific, organized areas for learning resources that will be
well-maintained. Lastly, I envision a classroom where students understand the value of their
surroundings, are responsible for following rules, and are motivated to learn.
2. Make a list of the rules you are likely to implement in this level. Why would you choose these
rules?
• Yes, it is relevant that teachers and students are both involved in making the rules inside the
classroom. Since students are the ones who follow these rules, they should implement them
together with the teacher. In this way, they are all informed of the rules, and there is no need to
2. Learners are more likely to internalize and follow classroom rules when _________.
A. the teacher clearly explains the rules she prepared
B. the learners know the punishments for not following the rules
C. the learners participate in the rule-making process
D. the teacher gives additional points for those who follow the rules
3. For a teacher to establish and maintain consistent standards of learner’s behavior, they should do
all EXCEPT ___________.
A. give immediate feedback to reinforce appropriate behavior of learners
B. be open to exceptions each time a learner misbehaves in class
C. communicate and enforce school policies and procedures clearly and consistently
D. handle behavior problems promptly and with due respect to learners' rights
Paste pieces of evidence of classroom rules that work in class. You may also put pictures to the
of the physical space and learning stations which contribute to the effective implementation of
classroom management.

6. Passing of books /
8. Tardy students /
9. Absent students /
15. Lining up /
ANALYZE
Analyze the routines set by the Resource Teacher by answering the following questions.
1. Were the routines effective in ensuring discipline and order in the class? Why?
Why not?
• Yes, because these are helpful in promoting discipline and maintaining order in the class. It
helps students learn specifically to follow the rules, learn good behavior, and become responsible
individuals.
2. Which of those routines where systematic and consistently implemented? Explain your
answer.
• The routines that were systematic and consistently implemented inside the classroom are
asking questions during lessons, checking assignments, submitting projects, working with pairs
or groups, asking for assistance, joining classroom activities, using classroom supplies, and
others. The mentioned routines were implemented regularly and in orderly fashion by the teacher
and students. These routines effectively help students learn and develop.
REFLECT
1. Which of the routine will you most likely apply in your class? Why? Why not?
• I think asking questions during class routines is that I most likely use in my classroom.
Nowadays, teaching is more student-centered. Because of this, I want my students to learn
effectively by simply asking questions about the topic we discuss, even in previous topics. To let
students share their ideas, opinions, or experiences. In this way, it helps them to learn effectively
and to know the feedback as a teacher.
OBSERVE
Observe a class and list down the classroom rules formulated by the Resource Teacher.
Cite the importance of these rules.
Classroom rules are imperative and must be reinforced for learners' safety and security.
Rules also teach discipline and self-control. Rules eliminate stress and will provide a more
pleasant, secured and non-threatening environment. Rules in sure the students' engagement and
focus in their classroom activities.
ANALYZE
1. Analyze each given rules. What circumstances led to the formulation of the to the rule?
• The purpose of having classroom rules is to help students become responsible and aware of
the dos and don'ts inside the classroom. To shape their behaviors and improve their learning so
they can apply it not just inside but outside the classroom.
2. Are classroom rules important?
• Classroom rules are crucial because they not only minimize the possibility of student
wrongdoing but also shape their behavior and discipline and enhance their learning. It also helps
students develop responsibility and awareness of classroom dos and don'ts.
REFLECT
Reflect on the various classroom rules set by the Resource Teacher. Will you have the same
rules? If not, what rules are you going to employ? Explain your answer.
• As I observed, most of the rules implemented by the resource teacher are likely to be the
same as mine, including honesty inside the classroom. For instance, during a quiz, being
honest with yourself by simply avoiding cheating and being honest about your scores, even
Shiny Babes P. Medilo FS 401 Portfolio 70
if they are low, as long as you did your best and it is still appreciated. One of these rules is
designed to teach students how to behave appropriately and safely in the classroom, thereby
increasing student learning.

ANALYZE
Analyze the different elements of personal/physical classroom management and answer the
following questions?
• The teacher voice significantly affect classroom instruction through captivate students to
pay attention and listen throughout class discussion. Teachers voice is crucial in teaching
students inside the classroom so that students will clearly understand each instructions even
small details that they need to acquire and apply.
• If the teacher sets a good example for his or her students, then they will probably engage
with what you show them. For instance, if the teacher values time so much in a way that he or
she doesn't want to be late for class, then I think it will impair the discipline of the students
because they should know how to value and manage their time.
REFLECT
Reflect on the aspects of personal and classroom management.
“No amount of good instruction will come out without effective classroom management”.
• As a future teacher, this statement emphasizes how important classroom management is for
learning. We all know that the classroom has a significant role in teaching and learning. That is
why it is important to maintain the classroom that we use because it is not just a classroom but
also a home for teachers and learners every day and is a big part of every student's success.
•To ensure effective classroom management, I'll focus on setting clear expectations, establishing
consistent routines, using positive reinforcement, and incorporating engaging and interactive
teaching methods to keep my students motivated and attentive learners.

• In my observation, I noticed that almost all strategies were employed by the teacher, as
indicated in effective classroom management strategies. This allows the teacher to better control
not only the classroom but also the students, allowing them to learn not just the lesson but also to
develop them as good individuals.
2. What were not used by the Resource Teacher? Were these important? What should have
been used instead? Explain.
• As I noticed, the classroom doesn't document rules due to the DepEd order requiring the
removal of all classroom wall decorations or posters. However, having documented rules inside

the classroom is also important, as it serves to remind students of what they should and shouldn't
do.

• As a future educator, the classroom management strategies that I must employ to respond to
diverse types of learners are practicing the cultural sensitivity of learners to avoid certain
situations in the future, and giving students freedom and flexibility because I believe that we are

Formal education begins in school. Schools are institutions established to design total learning
activities appropriate for each team in each grade level. Thus, schools have recommended
curriculum which is the enhanced K to 12 curricula. The recommended curriculum was translated
into written curriculum like books, modules, teachers' guides, and lesson plans which are the basis of
the taught curriculum. A teacher who implements the curricula needs support materials (support
curriculum) to enhance teaching and learning so that the written and the taught curricula can be
assessed (assessed curriculum) to determine if learning took placed (learned curriculum). However,
there are so many activities that happen in schools but are not deliberately planned. This refers to the
hidden curriculum.
A classroom teacher plans, implements, and evaluates school learning activities by preparing a
miniscule curriculum called a lesson plan or a learning plan. The teacher then puts life to lesson plan
by using it as a guide in the teaching-learning process where different strategies can be used to
achieve the learning objectives or outcomes. There are many styles of writing a less plan, but the
necessary parts or elements such as (a) Learning Outcomes (b) Subject Matter (c) Teaching --
Learning Strategies, and (d) Evaluation or Assessment should always be included.
All of these elements should be aligned so that at the end of the teaching-learning episode,
learning will be achieved with the classroom teacher is a guide.

includes lessons, reports, and written resources. The teaching-learning process involves
collaboration between learners and teachers, with instructors acting as facilitators. Supported
curriculum, including materials, artifacts, gadgets, and labs, aids in implementing the program.
Assessments assess progress and provide feedback for improvement. Successful assessments

evaluation are interconnected and vital for effective teaching and learning. These
components collectively ensure a well-rounded and comprehensive learning
experience.
2. Will the outcomes be achieved with the teaching methods used? Why?
• Yes, that must be attainable. When a teacher designs a lesson, they should
consider how well it will fit with the teaching strategy they are employing to
achieve the targeted learning outcomes. Both the learning outcomes and the
instructional strategies used must be in sync in order to achieve the desired
learning.

• When creating a lesson plan, I've learned that you need to match three things to reach your
goals. First, decide what knowledge, skills, and values you want your students to have. Then,
choose the best way to teach them, and finally, test them to see how well they've learned what
you've taught.
What value will it give to the teacher if the three components are aligned?
• If the teacher lines up the three parts, then he/she find success in teaching well and sharing
knowledge effectively with students.

This Episode centers on the guiding principles in the selection and use of teaching
methods. It will also tackle lesson development in the OBTL way. The K to 12 curriculum and
teacher education curriculum are focused on outcomes, standards, and competencies. This means
that lessons must be delivered with focus on outcomes. Likewise, this Episode dwells on types of
questions, questioning and reacting techniques that teachers make use of. The type of questions
that teachers ask and their manner of questioning and reacting to student responses have a
bearing on class interaction. This Episode strengthens the theories learned in the course,
Teaching Methods, and Strategies and in other professional subjects in Education.
Realizing the importance of these guiding principles in teaching and learning, the
Department of Education promotes Standards and Competency-Based teaching with its K to
12 Curriculum Guide. The Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has
been ahead of DepEd and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in the practice of
Competency.

1. Neil Postman once said: “Children go to school as question marks and leave school as
periods! “Does this have something to do with the type of questions that teachers ask
and the questioning and reacting techniques that they employ?
• When kids start school, they have lots of curious questions about life and everything
around them. But as they grow up, they sometimes stop being open to new ideas and only
accept things that fit their existing beliefs. This closed-off thinking can make them
believe in made-up stories and wrong information because they don't question what they
hear. This is a big problem because it stops them from trying to understand things better
and can cause harm to both kids and society.
