Quarter 1 – Module 1:
The Superhero ME

Gabay sa Magulang/Tagapag-alaga

Nagdulot ng napakaraming pagbabago sa pamumuhay ng bawat Pilipino ang

pandemyang nararanasan ng buong mundo. Sa gitna nito, ang Department of Education ay
kaisa ng inyong tahanan upang maipagpatuloy ang edukasyon ng lahat ng mag-aaral sa buong
Pilipinas. Dalawa sa mga pamamaraang ito ang paghahanda ng Leaning Continuity Plan at ng
Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs).
Sa taong ito, inihanda ang Homeroom Guidance During Crisis MELCs na naglalayong
matulungan ang inyong mga anak upang maipagpatuloy ang pagkatuto sa kabila ng mga
pagbabagong dulot ng pandemya. Ang Homeroom Guidance (HG) ay naglalayong maituro ang
mga kasanayan sa buhay o life skills sa pamamagitan ng self-directed learning modules.
Nakatuon ito sa tatlong mahahahalagang domeyn, ang academic, personal-social at career
development. Binigyang-pokus sa Homeroom Guidance MELCs ang mga gawaing
makatutulong sa lahat ng mga mag-aaral na magkaroon ng Rasyunal na Pag-iisip (Rational
Thinking), Malusog/Maayos na Pag-uugali (Healthy Behavior) at Positibong Disposisyon
(Positive Disposition) na higit na kailangan sa panahong ito.
Malaki ang gampanin ng mga magulang upang mapagtagumpayan ang mga gawaing
nakalatag dito. Kakailanganin ng mag-aaral ang inyong patnubay at gabay sa modyul na ito.
Kung kaya, hinihingi ng Kagawaran ang inyong suporta upang mapagtagumpayan ng magaaral
ang mga hamon sa buhay, maisakatuparan ang mga inaasahang gawain at higit sa lahat,
matutuhan ang mga kasanayan sa buhay na kailangan nilang taglayin sa yugtong ito.
Ito ay naglalayong paunlarin ang mga gawi at pamamaraan sa pag-aaral. Lubhang
mahalaga ang modyul na ito lalo sa panahon ngayon ng pandemya kung saan gagamit ng
alternatibong pamamaraan sa pagkatuto ang mga kabataan nang hindi nangangailangan ng
pisikal na presensya sa paaralan. Mahalagang patatagin ang magagandang gawi ng mag-aaral
gayundin ang mga isinasagawa niyang pamamaraan sa pag-aaral. Inaanyayahan po ang mga
miyembro ng pamilya na makilahok sa mga gawain sa modyul na ito na nangangailangan ng
inyong partisipasyon tulad na lamang ng mga naoobserbahan ninyong gawi mag-aaral.
Hikayatin ang ibang mga anak na makilahok sa gawaing nabanggit. Mangyaring tulungan ang
mag-aaral upang maisagawa ang mga itinakdang gawain para sa modyul na ito. Siguraduhing
may magagamit siyang kagamitan. Isa rin itong magandang pagkakataon upang magkaroon ng
interaksyion ang mga miyembro ng pamilya. Ang inyong suporta at paggabay ay napakalaking
bagay. Tiyakin na sasagutin ng mag-aaral ang bawat bahagi ng modyul at siguraduhing
maipapasa sa gurong-tagapayo ang natapos na mga gawain.

challenges.

challenge our positive dispositions. However, let us not be disheartened; we have the
means on how to overcome it – you have that in you! Embark on this journey of
overcoming your weaknesses and optimizing your strengths in transforming into a better
version of yourself!

Keep in Mind
SELF WORTH vs. SELF-ESTEEM: LET’s CLARIFY!

Self-worth and self-esteem are two different things, despite the fact that they are
used at interchangeably. Self-esteem is concerned more on your confidence and
healthy admiration of yourself, while self-worth is how you value yourself—an inner
sense of value. It is you who can determine how outside factors influence your
selfworth. These factors are actions or reactions and judgments of other people.
Researches say that an individual who validates his/her self-worth from external factors
may more likely have low self-worth. However, individuals who consider their internal
aspects tend to develop a healthy inner sense of value.

How to Improve your Self-worth

• Stop comparing yourself to others. Evaluating yourself based on standards of

other people may lead you to self-destruction or may develop maladaptive
behavior.

• Challenge the critical inner self. Find effort to see who you really are. Listen to
your inner voice. Start understanding and appreciating your own feelings,
thoughts, desires and values. If you will challenge your critical inner voice and
stop comparing yourself to others, you can begin to get a feeling for your own
self-worth.

How to Improve and Raise Your Self-esteem

• Be with people who treat you well. Some people act in ways that tear you
down. Others lift you up by what they say and do. Learn to tell the difference.
Choose friends who help you feel OK about yourself. Find people that you can be
yourself with. Be that type of friend to others.
• Set goals and work toward them. If you want to feel good about yourself, do
things that are good for you. Maybe you want to eat a healthier diet, get more fit,
or study better. Make a goal. Then make a plan on how to do it. Stick with your
plan. Track your progress. Be proud of what you've done so far. Say to yourself,
"I've been following my plan to work out every day for 45 minutes. I feel good
about it. I know I can keep it up."
• Give and help. Giving is one the best ways to build self-esteem. Tutor a
classmate, help clean up your neighborhood, help in a donation drive campaign.
Help out at home. Make it a habit to be kind and fair. Do things that make you

7
 proud of the kind of person you are. When you do things that make a difference
(even a small one) your self-esteem will grow.

You can do it
