Call Me By My Name ( February 02, 2010 – Tuesday )

The motivation comes first on the teacher itself . Facial expression, being sweet to your pupils will show it.

Our first day of observation in Bldg. 1 was a good experience. I and my groupmates, Kaye, Viena, Ruffa and Jemimah went to the principal’s good office, Mrs. Clarita Albos, Principal III at 9:30 in the morning as we reported for our first day observation. She is very accomodating and were glad that she shared her knowledge about teaching from traditional to modern, school culture, four pronged approach and many more. We learned so much from her. As we are having our conversation, Ma,am Sario and Ma,am Capistrano came. Ma,am Albos introduced us to them. It’s good that they told us that they oriented us about the PHIL. IRI after we observed in Mrs. Capistrano’s intern, Erika Noscal. At 9:50, we are asked to observe the teaching of the intern, Mrs. Erika Noscal. It was a continuation of her previous lesson which about the parts and functions of a book in the subject of Filipino. I noticed that most of her pupils are not participating in class discussion thinking that the pupils are grade IV and section I. She is not also calling the names of her pupils as she calls them to answer to her questions. She has a powerful voice. It seems that she is mad, a reason for the pupils not to participate in class discussion. Inspite of the negative comments, as a whole, she has a sharp mind because she knows her lessons very well, she did not stutter as she discussed the lesson. There are still rooms for improvement. I know she can do a lot of improvement. Just keep up the good works and accept changes.
