Your Analysis
Do the guidelines and procedures facilitate easy access to the materials by the
teachers? Why? Why not?
Yes, the guidelines are pretty much simple and the teachers can
easily access the materials because the in-charge of the facilities is
always around. The school implemented some of the own set of
rules that will facilitate access to the instructional materials
because of these, they can maximized the use of each material for
the sake of the students.
The library needs better lighting especially during cloudy days and
better ventilation on warm humid days.
My Reflectios
Among the materials in the learn resources at GMA ,the books really
caught my interest because ever since I was a kid I really love reading books,
despite some difficulty in relating some topics.

YOUR TOOLS
3. What are the displays about? What images and colors do you
see? How are the pieces of information arranged?
I will suggest adding more design that jibe to the topic or to the
theme, adding more information that helps the learners to learn
more. And add more appropriate information like such as trivia
corner, or message for the day to catch the attention.
1. Did the board display design reflect the likes/interests of its target
audience? Why? Why not?
Yes, the display actually reflects the interests of its target audience
because it tackles about nutrition and it catches the viewers of different kinds
of fruits and vegetables.
2. Was the language used clear and simple for the target audience to
understand? Why? Why not?
Yes, the language used is clear and simple – in fact the diseases are
written in Filipino and in English..
3. What do you think was the purpose of the board display? Was it effective?
Why? Why not?
I think the purpose of the board display is to know the update of the
school program or activities. It is effective specially to the parents and
students because they will exactly know easily to update.
1. Name at least 5 skills that a teacher should have to be able to come up with
effective board displays. Elaborate on why each skill is needed.
The skills that a teacher should possess in order to come up with an effective
board display are
· Elegance – she/he must strive for balance between vibrant and conservative
design so that the
· Ingenuity – she/he will be able to apply problem solving skills in coming up with
a display.
2. Which of the skills do you already have? Recall your past experiences in
making board displays. How do you practice these skills?
I feel that I need to develop more elegance and ingenuity in coming up with
designs not only in making a board display and other instructional materials. I
can improve on these skills by constant practice and by research on various
designs helpful in coming up with instructional materials.

2. What difficulties, if any, did the teacher experience? How can this be
managed?
The difficulties that the teacher had while the class was going on, is
primarily on making the students relate to the story (it was “Ang
Tipaklong at ang Langgam”, although the story was relayed in Cebuano by
the teacher). She was able to manage by gently explaining the story and by
pointing out experiences that they may have that relates to the story.

4 What other materials can you make? (like flash cad, poster,
cut-outs, transparencies)?
My Reflectios
1. Which of the materials did you like making the most? Why?
AI especially liked the using the video analysis software because it enables the
class to analyze the components of motion of a certain object.
2. What difficulties, if any, did you encounter in making the materials? How did
you overcome them?
Making most of these materials on my own would be really difficult but some
can be made with the help of professionals who have expertise and the proper
equipment. In order to overcome such difficulties, I will just find alternative
materials that are readily available and affordable.
3. What tips can you give teachers regarding preparation of teaching materials?
In preparing teaching materials teacher should know if the materials are easy to
provide and easy to understand by the students and more colorful so that the
students will focus.

Episode 5
Your Target
With a lot of reflective thinking coupled with your creativity, you can
design hand-outs that will truly work well to make learning effective. You will
see that preparing hand-outs is not just any paper work. When you produce
high quality hand-outs and eventually try them out, you will discover that,
indeed, paper works! To reach you target, follow the steps below:
Your Analysis
A good handout helps students prepare for the coming lesson. Also, it must
give the students a clear description of the activities or procedures that they
have to do in order to understand the lesson.
In the sample, I have already given a good contrast and All of these are
present on handout I made.
The sample I made lacks concept elaboration and examples for application.
My Reflectios
1. What difficulties, if any did you encounter in making the handouts? How did
you overcome them?
All information that students will known is on the handout but you need to be
more specific and the information should put in be more understandable by the
students.
In making handouts, it is always best to start with an outline so that one will be
guided on what topics to include. Now, it might be time-consuming to create
one’s own illustrations, but then you can always use this illustrations for other
instructional materials like exams and slide presentation
FS 3 Technology in the learning Environment
Episode 6
A good slide show presentation must be concise, direct to the point and
insightful at the same time.
2. Which of these features are present in the slide presentation you made?
Among the features mentioned above, the slide presentation I made has
appropriate transitions and animations, where the format and design is
congruent to the concept presented – it does not clutter the slide.
3. Which features are not present in the slide presentation you made?
I am afraid that the slide presentation I made is neither short nor concise.
My Reflectios
What difficulties, if any did you encounter in making the slide presentation?
How did you overcome them?
In making the slides, so far, the difficulty encountered is choosing the
information that should appear on the slide, since there is a lot of information
being discussed in the reference materials.

“THERMOMETER CHECK”
Your Target
At the end of this activity, you should be able to describe through your
reflection of how the school promotes partnership and dialogue.
You Map
1. Visit a school and study its vision, mission, and goals in relation to the
school’s curriculum.
2. Observe the interaction between and among students, teachers and
other school personnel.
3. Write down your observation and discuss with your classmates and FS
teacher.
4. Generate insights from your observation and discussion.
5. Reflect on your experiences.
My Observation Report on Interaction
Interaction between the students more time consume than their interaction
to their teacher inside the classroom. Those students interact to their seatmates
that are not with the subject. More on boys are so talkative to their classmate
whether they have the teacher or more. Everyone has their own topic but not
related into the lesson.
Always show their best while the teacher was around. It can be observed
in classroom during discussion student to teacher.
Your Tools
Teacher-to-Student Interaction Patterns:
Teachers are concerned to the needs of every students that why they never
stop teaching every day. They want to share their knowledge and to educate each
student. Teacher is the most respective person in the classroom.
Create a scenario where any of tthe above interactions occur in the school.
Make a script of their dialogue,bearing in mind that this partnership is built on
developing a climate of respect,harmony and cooperation.
My Script
(Teacher-to-Student-Interaction)
Student: Yes
Teacher: It means all objects that makes line are can use.
Student: Yes
Teacher: Okay on page 32, answer the activity. Read the instruction together.
Student: Color all the straight line and circle all the non-straight line.
After 10 minutes
Student : Yes
Student: Okay
Your Analysis
There are different kinds of people; those who work hard, those who play hard,
those who do both and those who do neither.
What are found in the classrooms that are similar to what can be observed in
society?
We can find different personalities inside the classroom: They have different
kinds of attitude, opinion, interest and dreams so as in a society. Varied
personalities exist.
The Cooperation and Partnership must come together because they are
interrelated to each other in designing, selecting or choosing content and
activities and the determination of what to evaluate.
We discuss about how students socialized with other students on what are
they talking when there is no classes when there are classes. We also discusson
students cooperation during classes. And whose students are actively
particpate.
FS4 Exploring the Curriculum
Episode 2
Your Target
At the end of this activity, the students should be able to describe the
interaction pattern that occurs between the teachers and learners as provided
in the curriculum.
You Map
1. Visit a school and observe how the teacher provides the opportunity to
the learners to interact with one another in doing one’s roles.
2. Record how roles are performed by the teacher and the learners.
3. Make your own documentation of the dialogue or conversation based on
the observed roles that each one performs which you feel could have
been livelier.
4. Highlight the aspect of the dialogue that indicates the teacher as a role
model in developing the values in the process of learning.

My Observation Report
Observations:
Pupils are responsive to the learner. The teacher corrects the pupils if their
answers are wrong.
Situation
(Describe how the teacher communicates the lesson and howthe learners are
responding to the teacher. Take note at the manner the teacher accepts or
rejects the responses of the learners. You may present your observations
through direct quotes from the teachers and learners in the dialogue.
The teacher did not reject the wrong answer of the pupil. She did not tell
directly "that is wrong" but instead, she said that it is meaning of the other
sentence. I think it is effective because it did not made the pupil feel rejected
or downed unlike if he was told "your answer is wrong " the pupil may feel
somehow that he is humiliated, and this may cause him lose self esteem.
Your Analysis
What learning benefits could teachers and students draw form intentional
classroom dialogue?
They will learn not only the lessons but also social interaction betweenone
another. Good conversations result in good and harmonious relationship.

“ CHECK POINTS”
1. Visit a school and choose a class to be observed. Then arrange with the
teacher that you are going to conduct a class observation.
I visit the school of Gloria Marizz Academy and i observed the Grade 4
students.
2.Take note of the different learning environment provided in the lesson plan
for specific subject area. Generate information on the following: Objectives,
Strategies, and Assessment tools used.
3.Find out whether or not strategies are aligned with the objectives and
assessment of learning. Make a matrix of information from the observation
made.
The strategies used should include drills pointing to what makes a quotation
mark misplaced in the sentence. If the objective had been that "The student
will use quotation marks correctly, the content taught would probably be the
same. The instructional strategies and the assessment tools for measuring
accomplishment of objectives should, however,
All FS and episode as well those experience will reflects in time and there will
come that the episodes that I took will reiterate on my in service time.
Thoughts the final episode is a seed that i sowed n my premier career, so I
really expect that to know, to gain, to train and to understand what ponders
most during and after this profession. And exploring the curriculum is not new
to everyone the case is that not all are aware of it is a challenge to be one of
the curriculum planners.
