Teacher’s Creed

Teacher’s Philosophy of Education

The philosophy is that people must believe in something. According to John Dewey, education is by its nature an endless circle spiral. It is an activity, which includes science, because in its process, it raises problems to be studied which then reacts upon demanding more through, more science in an everlasting sequence.

This definition of education makes it imperative to a person to have a philosophy of education and beliefs in the function of teaching.

A teacher should believe in the intended processes and activities to produce desirable changes in the behavior of students. We must believe in the capacity to effect these changes, promote and facilitate these changes through the mastery of the subject matter and the use of appropriate methods and techniques of teaching.

A teacher also functions as manipulator of teaching learning situations. As a manipulator, she believes in her ability to create a series of operations directed to change specific behavior. These are just the parts of a teacher’s educational philosophy.

As a student teacher, she must believe in something that will eventually help her in setting the goal of her life. This will focus on the values and objectives of the new social order; the will help the teacher in analyzing and organizing her objectives; crystallizing the thoughts that will serve as a guide to prevent a teacher from getting lost their maze of her many-faceted chores. The school occupies premier place in the construction of the society, particularly in the matter of changing the attitudes toward community. The role of the teacher plays will be a crystallizer and an evaluator of the educational program under the democratic society.

Field Study Experiences

Field Study 1
The Learner’s Development and Environment

Field Study 1 is focus on Learner’s Development and Environment, the learning environment as well as the psychological environment that may affect the students’ way of learning. .A physical environment that is conducive for learning may be the product of physical and psychological atmosphere that creates interaction between student to student and teacher to students, it had a great impact to teaching-learning process. Every students are unique they are differ from each other. Teacher must consider the differences of the students, respect them and treat them equally.

Field Study 2
Experiencing the Teacher-Learning Process

Field study 2 is design to help the field study students observe how the different principle of teaching and learning are applied to make the teaching and learning process interactive, meaningful, exciting and enjoyable. In teaching, teacher must consider the feelings, ideas, interest and needs of students. Having on actual learning will lead them to better understanding. When it comes to teaching strategies, there is no such thing as best method. The best method is the one that works, the one that yields result and the one that promote harmonious relationship between the teacher and the students.

Field Study 3
Technology in the Learning Environment

This course is designed to realize the importance of technology in teaching and learning. The teacher must apply the different principle in utilizing instructional materials suit to the needs of the learners. And these also enrich the student’s experiences in developing appropriate technology to facilitate learning. It shall also provide students exposure and hand – on opportunities in the use of information communication technology. Field Study 4
Exploring the curriculum

This field study have the concept of curriculum is a dynamic as the changes that occur in the society. It is refers to the total learning experiences of individuals not only in schools but in society as well. Field study 4 is about the effective curriculum design and assessment. It includes the different persons involve in the implementation and assessment of the curriculum.

Field Study 5
Learning Assessment Strategies Field study 5 provide us an opportunities to acquire knowledge about the different kind of students while assessing them, and one of the best assessment to learning is the assessment in affective domain which emphasized measurements of reasoning and the mental faculties of the students, it emphasized feeling, an emotion or a degree of acceptance and rejection. In this kind of assessment and strategies the student can broadcast their opinion and their shared their own knowledge, information and ideas to other learners.

Field Study 6
On becoming a Teacher

New teachers overwhelmingly say they love what they do. They say it allows them to contribute to society and help others. I am now entering on the step of the real world teachers directly affect the lives of the students they teach. Think about how much time students spend in school; most of that time is spent with a teacher.
Field study 6 provide us in – dept understanding, series of experiences that will motivate, encourage and enable to go on and appreciate more the valuable things/experiences about on becoming a professional teacher on the future. In teaching profession you must have dedication to public interest, and strong commitment to the profession, moral and ethical values.

OBSERVATION

It was November __, 2010 when I started my observation. It was assigned by the principal, Dr. Milagros B. Puon, of Mabitac National High School to observe of all year level to see the teachers’ strategies and technique in handling such different kinds of students with different learning styles and behaviors. I was very excited and quite nervous because we were in the beginning of a difficult task of our studying.

On the first day, I was endorsed to Mrs. Lani C. Cabiedez and Ms. Vivien B. Claro, a Mathematics Teachers, to be my cooperating teachers. I was very happy in observing their class, they easily disciplines their students but in the good way. I really admired them when they was teaching Mathematics because they always used motivation to catch their attention and to arouse the interest of their students. They always equipped with visual materials that is needed in the lesson. They mastered the subject matter and executed every lesson very well. When it comes to students, they are very active and talented bur some of them are slow learners.

I had finished my observation last March __, 2011. I learned that as a teacher, you have to used teaching strategy that is suited for the student because of what we called “Individual Differences”, your voice must be well modulated, this is very important for a teacher and most of all you want to stay in this profession you need an ended patience.

I really enjoyed my observation in Mabitac National High School. I learned beautiful things from all the teachers there and I would like to say thank you to Mrs. Lani C. Cabiedez, Ms. Vivien B. Claro and Dr. Milagros B. Puon.

Personal Reflection

of

Pre – Service
Teaching

ACtual Teaching Student Teaching is the actual Teaching and our major role and responsibility. During this period, we need to cat like a professional teacher. After three months observations, we are now to apply all the knowledge and good things we got during our observation period. But before that, there is some orientations that were given to us on how to perform our duties and responsibilities’ as a student teacher. All teacher with concern especially our pre- service supervisor, Mrs. Arlene G. Advento, with our dean, Dr. Corazon N. San Agustin, for us to be ready and capable enough to handle different kinds of student and apply all principles and methods that we have learned in our years of schooling. November 29, 2011, it is a pleasure to see once again the teachers and students of Mabitac National High School. Together with my co-practice teachers, we choose the year level we want to teach. And I choose second year because I already familiar with the second year students. It was December 1, 2011, when I assigned to teach in II - Sampaguita but I request my cooperating teacher, Mrs. Lani C. Cabiedez, that I will observe her to prepare myself to teach in the next class which is II – Lilac, then followed by II – Cattleya. During my first week of teaching, it was very hard for me to act like a real teacher, making lesson plans and visual aids at night. I felt tired during the first week of my teaching. I was always thinking what am I going to do on how can I execute my lesson well. But I was lucky enough to have a very approachable and supportive cooperating teacher because she was always willing to help and support me, share ideas and suggestions to the fullest. Another important part of teaching was on how to deal and building rapport with my pupils. During this period, I felt the joy as I was imparting knowledge to them and in return, they gave me support and respect. With this in my actual practice teaching, I realized being a teacher is very challenging and enjoyable although it is very difficult task but then, with the student who’s eager to learn, cooperative, funny and sweet as inspire the teacher to teach. This was the first time I realized and probe to myself what my teacher told us before that teaching is the most enjoyable and inspiring profession. The much-awaited time of every student-teacher was the final demonstration teaching. March 09, 2012 in the morning was the schedule of my general demonstration. We are ready to the demonstration all the devices, lesson plan well prepared upon seeing the panelist namely: Mrs. Montefalcon, Ms. Bobadilla and Mrs. Advento me and my co – student teachers feel nervous, but through the support and encouragement given to us by the teachers including our students who always there to make us smile we gather all our strength and confidences to begin our lesson. After the demonstration we held short meeting to discuss about the result of our demonstration. We are all happy because our demonstration ended successfully and with flying colors said by our panelist. They welcome us in the world of teaching and all of this is through the help of our Jesus Christ. We continue our practice teaching until march to finish the time needed.

History of Mabitac National High School Mabitac, Laguna

MABITAC NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL can be said to be small school situated in the corner of two barangay: Brgy. Maligaya and Brgy. Libis ng Nayon now called Bernardo Sayarot Street. The total land area of the school is 18 238 sq. meters for the main school and 6000 sq meters for the extension site. These are all donated by the municipal government.

This school started to operate in the year 1971 through the best effort to Mrs. Lydia V. Carpio. She was the first principal in-charge and the founder of the said school.

The school was called Alas-As Barangay National High School, first Barangay High School in Mabitac. The school’s name was changed to Mabitac National High School through the Sangunian Bayan resolution and approved by the NHI (National Historical Institute) on November 15, 1994.

This institute started only two (2) classroom borrowed from Mabitac Cultural School. Also, the Sanguniang Barangay of Lucong was used as classroom through the leadership of Brgy. Captain Mariano G. Bobadilla, who adopted the school for ten years. The Barangay Libis ng Nayon and Barangay Maligaya disowned the school.

Gradually, the school got its integrity. At the start, there are two full time teachers in the person of Ms. Fe L. Reyes and Mr. Nelson V. Vicuña, other teachers are: Mrs. Aimee Albayand and Mrs. Rosario De Guzman.

Yearly, enrolment increases. On the third year of operation, the school is the full pledged high school. In 1974, thirteen students graduated, though there is no graduation rite. On the school year 1974-1975, forty students graduated with a graduation ceremony.

As this is increase on enrolment, number of teachers increase too. The first faculty members are the following: Mrs. Lydia V. Carpio, the principal-in-charge, Ms. Soledad Rellosa, and Mrs. Esmeralda V. Bobadilla, Ms. Gloria Bauyo, Mrs. Yolanda S. Dimaranan, Ms. Fe Reyes, Ms. Fidela G. Gonzales, Ms. Felicidad De Leon, Mrs. Rosita De Guzman and Mr. Nelson V. Vicuña.

On the school year 1977-1978, Mrs. Carpio decided that the school should have a permanent site, and the head teacher designed was Mr. Nelson Vicuña. After a year of being a head teacher, Mr. Vicuña decided to work abroad. Mrs. Mata was assigned as the teacher-in-charge, on 1979-1980. During her administration, school record was organized; sewing machines and science equipments were acquired. Unfortunately, she was not able to pass the Board Examination for Teachers, so Mrs. Yolanda S. Dimaranan took over the position and was promoted to Head Teacher to Principal I.

Mrs. Dimaranan is the leader of the school for twenty-six years. She was able to establish our school on its success. The acquisition of land for the school, different buildings and all equipments needed were patiently acquired for the use of the institution. During her administration, students’ development as well as curriculum development and values were given emphasized.

On December 22, 2006, Mrs. Yolanda S. Dimaranan retired at the age of 65. Due to her retirement, the Division Superintendent,

Dr. Lilia T. Reyes designates Dr. Adelina L. Acelajado, Education Supervisor in H.E. to be the OIC-Principal and now year 2010 the assigned principal of Mabitac National High School was Mrs. Milagros B. Puon Ph.D. a very humble, patience and kind principal of (MNHS).

Presently, the principal of Mabitac National High School is Mrs. Cynthia Dela Torre from Pagsanjan National High School.

a. 2, 5, 8, …… c. 18, 24, 30, ……

b. 9, 7, 5, …… d. -8, -5, -2 , ……

B. Review

1. What is an arithmetic sequence?

2. Give examples of an arithmetic sequence.

C. Introduction / Motivation

Besides the simple sequence studied, there are other sequences that are useful for counting purposes.

D. Presentation

1. Observe the given examples of harmonic sequence together with the corresponding arithmetic sequence below.

|Arithmetic Sequence |Harmonic Sequence |
|1, 4, 7, 10, ….. |1, ¼, 1/7, 1/10, ….. |
|15, 12, 9, 6, 3, 0, ….. |1/15, 1/12, 1/9, 1/6, 1/3, 0, …. |
|3/2, 7/2, 11/2, 15/2, ….. |2/3, 2/7, 2/11, 2/15, …. |

Given nth first term and the common difference, the nth term can be found.

2. Find the first six terms of a harmonic sequence where a1 is 1/3 and d is ¼.

Solution:

The corresponding arithmetic sequence with a1 = 3 and d = 4 will be 3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, ….. Therefore, the harmonic sequence is 1/3, 1/7, 1/11, 1/15, 1/19, 1/23, ….

3. Find the 13th term of a harmonic sequence if a1 = 1/6 and d = 2.

Solution:

The corresponding arithmetic sequence has a1 6, d = ½ and n = 13.

a13 = 6 + (13 -1) ½ = 6 + 12(1/2)

a13 = 6 + 6 + 12

Therefore, the 13th term of the harmonic sequence is 1/12.

E. Exploration

Principles and Methods of Teaching

This book is intended primarily for students in the college of Education and beginning teachers, to have s strong foundation and a through grasp on concepts, theories, principles and teaching-learning process.

This book will also provide teachers who are already in the service for a great long time and who want to improve their competency and to update themselves on current trends, new techniques and strategies in the teaching process.

Field Study

Maria Rita D. Lucas

Field Study is a component of the new pre-service teacher education curriculum that aims to expose the students to actual field study experiences so that they can relate the theories learned inside the classroom with those experiences. These off-classroom experiences would emphasize the importance of

Curriculum Development
Bilbao, Purita P .et al

Curriculum Development is an instructional material in module from which complement the 3 – unit course of the New Teacher Curriculum. It closely approximates the syllables of the CMO 30 s – 2004.

Similar to other materials in project write, curriculum development tries to balance theory and practice. Each Module follows a distinct pattern or format with a short introductory part or take off, the advance reading or focus, the activities to strenghthen the focus or take, reflection for Higher Order Thinking and Self check for evaluation.

OBSERVATION AND PARTICIPATION PHASE

Observation in student teaching must be directed and systematic. There should be specific purposes. During this period, the student teacher participates in the classroom and school activities. They assist the cooperating teacher in the management, maintenance of the classroom and order discipline, preparation of instructional materials, construction of test, checking and usage of test results, accomplishment of school forums and records, extracurricular activities in the school and in the community.

In the actual classroom observation and participation, student teachers must:

1. Follow the schedule of observations; make arrangement in case of changes in schedule.

2. Visit their room at least one day before the observation day.

3. Confer with the cooperating teacher before observation day.

4. Arrive at least an hour before the class starts.

5. Record the observation silently.

6. Thank the teacher or the cooperating teacher.

7. Observe the cooperating teacher at different occasions.

a. Developing a new lesson.

b. Demonstrating in the shop or laboratory.

c. Administering the test.

d. Supervising practical work.

----------------------- This practice teaching portfolio was prepared and developed to provide and share experiences for those who will undergo the same undertakings. Some classroom difficulties and problems that she had encountered are mentioned, and the lesson that she had learned. The greatest value of this practice teaching portfolio is that it serves as the mirror of the practice teacher for their progress and achievement in their practice teaching. And also this practice teaching portfolio was prepared to expose the pre-service teacher experiences so that they can use it in relating their theories learned inside the classroom to become globally competitive. Another purpose of this practice teaching portfolio is that it assess the pre-service teacher’s learning for the preparation in future life in facing the real world of teaching. The pre-service teacher must do always their best in imparting knowledge to the students. Just love your students so in return your students will be embracing you too, with the great things you’ve done to them not only in cognitive side but in affective and psychomotor development.

I am a teacher. I accept the challenge to be sagacious

and tenacious in teaching every student

because I believe every child can learn.

I accept the responsibility to

Create a learning environment conducive to optimum achievement, academically, socially, and emotionally.
I actively pursue excellence, for myself and my students.

I provide a model of decorum and respect that guides my students as well as honors them.
I affirm superlative expectations for my students and myself.
I cherish every child.
I am a teacher.

I change the world, one student at a time.

Pictures of Sample of Materials Used

After graduation I’m going to have a serious review in order to pass the Licensure Examination for Teacher. While waiting for the result of Board Passers I’m going to find way to get a job related to my course. I’m going to help my family I give them the life that I dreamed for them.

If I luckily pass the exam I will be in my teaching career and I will take also my Masters degree when I already have my regular job. After all of that things, I will help my family, friends, relatives etc and I will let myself to enjoy my life while I am still single, then if I am already satisfied with my life of being single I will now soon to face my future life having my own family.

I will pray to our Dear God that he will give me the guidance, strength, and love that I need in order to make this plan come true.
