Session 1 – The DepEd’s Mandate

As a newly hired teacher in DepEd, what can you contribute to:


a. Promote quality education?
In education, the teacher plays a vital role. He or she is responsible not just imparting
knowledge to pupils but also shaping the behaviors, attributes, and character of learners.
As a new teacher, I will contribute to the promotion of high-quality education by continuing
my professional development by attending short-term refresher courses, workshops,
seminars, and educational conferences. I will always reflect on my teaching methods, assess
the methods and strategies I employ, and seek out new ways to improve my teaching
practices. I will also urge my students to be active learners by giving them material that foster
collaboration, involving them in debates and discussions, and allowing them to share their
new ideas to make the classroom discussion more interesting.
b. uphold equity in education?
I can uphold equity in education by giving equal opportunity among my pupils regardless of
their race, religion, culture, color, and status. Providing them with varied instruction to
address the different learning styles of my pupils. I will remove the barriers in learning and
promote collaboration in the classroom and give more opportunity to all the pupils to excel.
c. Respond to the needs of the learners?
To respond to the needs of the learners I can contribute through openly involve them in
classroom decision-making in the classroom. I will provide them opportunities to engage in
learning experiences that they have initiated. I will consistently monitor my pupils progress
and provide them with proper intervention.

Session 2: Vision, Mission, and Core Values


As a new public-school teacher, what are your visions for yourself, for your class, and
your school community?

Self: As a new public-school teacher, my goal is to be a teacher that encourages my


students to enjoy learning. I will strive to identify my strengths and then use them to inspire
my students, leading to a positive outcome for each pupil and a shift in the way my teaching
works. My goals are to motivate and engage my pupils through ongoing and everyday
student-centered active-learning lessons, as well as to help all my students discover meaning
in their lives through education.
Class: My vision is to have a class wherein there is collaboration among all my learners. To
create an atmosphere where each individual feels accepted and valued. To create a
classroom wherein there is no bias and there is equal opportunity for learning to everyone. I
want to create a classroom that is conducive to learning and promote love for learning.

School Community: My vision to my school community is to be a learning environment that


are deeply united have an array of benefits for students, teachers, parents, and the wider
school. A community that has a strong leadership to help the school in providing quality
education to all learners.
Key Topic 1: DepEd’s Vision
Scenario 1:
Teacher Johanna is a Grade 7 teacher at Jacobo Z. Gonzales Memorial National High
school. She encourages her learners to demonstrate their love of country through practicing
acts of kindness inside and outside the school premises. Provide at least two ways of
integrating this in her lessons. You may respond in 3-5 sentences.

Teacher Johanna should think first of the subjects where she can integrate and achieve her
lesson objective, say for example she integrates it in AP and ESP then she can use it as a
group task or individual task to her pupils wherein they demonstrate practicing act of
kindness.

Key Topic 2: DepEd’s Mission


Scenario 2:
One of the Grade 9 advisory students of Teacher Andrew is showing interest in joining
scouting. However, the student is very shy and timid. In what ways can Teacher Andrew help
his learners to gain confidence and participate in scouting? You may respond in 3-5
sentences.
The first step Teacher Andrew should do is to talk to the pupil and explain to him the benefit
of joining the Scouting. Encourage him that joining scouting is an unforgettable experience
where he can learn to socialize with his other classmates and learn cooperation, that through
this activity he can overcome his shyness and gain confidence in interacting with other
people. Teacher Andew should encourage him to go beyond his comfort zone and joining the
scouting is the perfect idea for it.

Key Topic 3: The DepEd Core Values


Scenario 1:
Teacher Helga is a Grade 1 teacher at Biñan Elementary School. She is teaching Science.
She wants to make sure that she can provide a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe, and
motivating environment in her class. What should she do to achieve this? You may respond
in 3-5 sentences.

Teacher Helga should provide activities in science that promotes child-friendly, gender-
sensitive, safe, and motivating environment in her class by preparing a lesson plan a head of
time. She should make sure that her activities are suited for the learners, not gender biased,
safe and encourage participation to all learners.

Scenario 1:
Teacher Luis is a Grade 10 guidance counselor and a Values Education teacher at Arellano
High School. One of his classes has a diverse religious background. One day, two of the
learners insisted that the class should start with a prayer led by an assigned student. This
leads to a heated debate arguing about their own religious and spiritual beliefs. How can
Teacher Luis mediate and help resolve the argument? (You may refer to Department Order
(No. 32, s. 2013) and Department Order (69, s. 1990)).

Teacher Luis should explain to all his pupils that students with different religious beliefs
should not force to participate to any religious activity that is not allowed on their religion.
They should learn to respect the religion of other people to avoid discrimination in the class.
That’s why if one of their classmates does not join or lead the prayer in their class, they
should respect their decision.

Scenario 2:
The DepEd Core Values teaches us the love for God (maka-Diyos), love for fellow men
(maka-tao), love for nature (makakalikasan), and love for country (makabansa). Teacher
Molina inspires his Grade 2 learners to become a better version of themselves through
exemplifying qualities and characters of our national heroes. What classroom management
strategies can Teacher Molina employ to encourage learners to apply the DepEd core values
in real life situations?

To teach the DEpEd core values to Grade 2 pupils, Teacher Molina can use it as an activity
wherein she can assign her class per group to act as one of the national heroes and portray
the good values that they have, through this pupil can internalized the good values in real life
situations.

Required Task 3: Reflection


After going through this module, (DepEd Mandate, Vision, Mission, Core Values, and
Strategic Directions), answer the following questions. Write your responses in 3-5 sentences.

1. In what ways has this module helped you reflect on the Vision, Mission, Core Values, and
Strategic Directions of the Department of Education?

Through this module I now understand that term “teacher” is a very broad definition.
That his/her role does not end in the four walls of the classroom. Teacher is one of the
important people who mold and shape the minds of the pupils. Because of this
module, I realized that I cannot provide the quality education to my pupils if I did not
seek to continue my professional development.

2. How has this module helped you clarify your vision and motivations in serving your
learners better and in promoting a learner-centered environment for them?
This module serves as my wake-up call to continue my dream to change the lives of
my pupils as my top priority despite of the challenges I encountered as a new teacher.
This serves as my guide to be a competent teacher and provide learner centered
environment that focus on the welfare of my pupils

3. What are your personal beliefs and values that are aligned with the DepEd’s VMV (Vision,
Mission, Core Values)?
My personal beliefs that are aligned with the DepEd Vision, Mission and Core Values is
that “We should not judge a book by it’s cover”, because I realized that as a teacher, I
should not judge my pupils by just looking at them or by their mistakes they created
because, the intelligence of a child is not measured by it. I should give equal opportunities
to all my pupils when it comes to learning regardless of their attitudes or behaviors. And
as a teacher, it is my duty to change the lives of my pupils one at a time.

Key Topic 2: School-based Management (SBM)


Required Task 2: Scenario Analysis
Scenario 1
Teacher Lozano, the mother of one of your advisory students, visited you in the school
because of a bullying incident that you are not aware of. She was very angry and
disappointed about what happened because the incident was not addressed and resolved
properly. Her daughter is still afraid and decided not to go to school that day. The incident
happened during Science time because the teacher was late to enter the class. You also had
other classes to attend to and had no chance to meet your advisory class during that time.
Who should you seek help to?

I would seek first the help of the school guidance councilor regarding this matter to identify
what is the best way to resolve the issue together with the parents and the pupils involve. If
the problem is still not resolve, then it is the time to seek the help of the school head.

Scenario 2
Teacher Mary Ann, a fellow teacher whom you consider a friend, messaged you on
Facebook and told you that she will be absent tomorrow. She asked you to substitute all her
five classes. Without letting you respond, she already sent you the learning materials for her
lessons tomorrow. However, you also have classes to attend, and your learners are
expecting to deliver a performance task that they prepared for. What are you going to do as a
colleague and who should you direct her to?

I will honestly tell her that I also have classes that I needed to attend. I will advise her to
message the school head that she can longer go to school, and she needed a teacher to
substitute for her so that the school head would be the one to decide whose teacher is
available to look for her class.

Scenario 3
Lito, the class president of your advisory class, was elected as the president of the Supreme
Student Government (SSG). After three months, his subject teachers are having trouble with
his class standing because of his frequent absences and non-submission of required written
and performance tasks. Lito is getting overwhelmed with the various school activities he
manages. What are you going to do as the adviser?

I will explain to Lito that I understand his role as the President of the Supreme Student
Government., that he has lots of duties and responsibilities to full fill, but I will also remind
him that he should not just focused on this, he has still subjects that needs to prioritize. He
should learn to balance his duties as well as his academic subjects to avoid conflicts on her
grades. I will advise him to create his daily time plan so that he can full fill both his duties
without sacrificing his academic subjects.

Session 5 – Handling Advisory Classes
Required Task 1: Introductory Activity
As you go over the activity, write your reflections below by answering the questions that
follow. Limit your answers to all the three questions below into a maximum of 600 words.
Guide Questions:
1. What is the role of a teacher to his/her learners?
Teachers plays a significant role in the life of his/her learners. As a teacher, it is their
responsibility to bring out the best in their students and inspire them to achieve greatness.
Students are thought to be the nation's future, and teachers are thought to be a reliable
guide for their progress. Teachers are responsible for shaping their future, making him or
her a better human being. A teacher’s presence in a student’s life can boost their morale
and guide them to be more valuable in life. Now that we are in the modern era, the role of
the teacher also changes. Teachers are responsible to bring the lesson to real-life
situations to encourage participation to the learners. Another very important part of the
teacher’s role is to monitor learner’s performances, assessments, achievements, and
learners’ development. With all that information the teacher will find easier to get to know
the students properly and adopt different strategies that ensure successful learning for all.
The role of the teacher has no limit when it comes to ensuring the welfare of his/her
learners.
2. How do you think are those roles manifested in being a classroom adviser?
These roles of the teacher are manifested in the classroom by implementing it by the
adviser in her actions. Performing his/her duties wholeheartedly to all his/her learners.

3. So far, how was your experience as a classroom adviser?

My experience as a classroom teacher is challenging yet rewarding. I have learned that I


need to study effectively about classroom management. I realized also that each pupils
have different learning styles that is why I must provide varied activities in my lessons.
They have diverse ways of learning that is why it is very challenging on my part as a
teacher. Because of this experience, they motivate me to be strive my best to be an
excellent teacher and continue my professional growth.

Answer the following processing questions by discussing with your mentor.
What are the different issues addressed by the legal bases of the K to 12 Curriculum? Which
among them affects you the most as a teacher?

The different issues addressed by the legal bases of the K-12 Curriculum are the lack of
resources for implementation, teachers do not find themselves equipped to teach students
because they believe they need more training, and the additional two years of basic
education known as the senior high school have had a negative impact on the lower
economic status of parents.
Among these issues, what greatly affects me as a teacher is the lack of resources like
computers. Our school has no access to internet, that’s why even we want the learners to be

I think the top 3 factors that are given emphasis by the different K to 12 laws and orders are
the teachers, the learners and the school environment because they are the center of the
education process.

districts.
Required Task 1: Case Studies
Study the following cases and tell what your actions will be on these scenarios. Base your
answers on the K to 12 Curriculum and the DepEd Vision and Mission. Limit your response
to 100 words.
Case 1: You have a transferee learner who only speaks her mother tongue. As a result, your
learners cannot communicate with her properly and the transferee learner feels left out. What
can you do as her teacher?
Language barriers can make anyone feel hesitant, therefore it's responsibility of the teacher
to reach out to the student. Don't wait for him or her to request assistance. The teacher's
solution to these linguistic hurdles may be to pair the transferee pupils with one of her more
knowledgeable students. This knowledgeable companion can serve as a mentor to new
students as they face the inevitable challenges. Labeling classroom objects is another
alternative. This not only helps students learn classroom routines, but it can also help them
improve their conversation skills. The teacher can also speak with the parents and advise
them about how to teach the new language to their children at home.
Case 2: You have a learner wanting to take up engineering in college. Upon checking his
grades, you have learned that he has not been good in Mathematics. What can you do to
help the learner?
There are several methods in which the teacher might assist the student in excelling in
mathematics. The teacher should teach the students to be confident when answering math
problems. Another thing the teacher should do is encourage students to ask questions and
create space for curiosity. The more students ask for clarification, the better because it only
means they are paying attention and learning. Another way to assist the learner be good at
mathematics is to provide authentic issues that improve students' desire to interact with
math. Teaching kids how to apply math to real-world problems increases their enthusiasm
and comprehension.

Case 3: One of the features of the K to 12 Curriculum is spiral progression. Upon seeing your
learners’ pre-test results, you have realized that they are yet to master last year’s
competencies. What will you do to have them meet the requirements of the new level?
To meet the requirements of the new level, the teacher should conduct a short review of the
certain topic. He/she can give activities that are aligned to the competency of the lesson.
Case 4: You have a class which has a sizable number of over-aged learners who have taken
the grade level multiple times. How will you decide on the learning plan considering your
other learners?
The teacher should provide varied activities that are suitable to the aged and understanding
of his/her learners. The Teacher can provide group tasks wherein they can collaborate with
each other.

Optional Task 2: Compare and contrast


During the meeting of the Grade 6 teachers for their subject assignments, Mrs. Navarro was
assigned to teach both Mathematics and Araling Panlipunan subjects. She decided to study
and analyze how the two subjects will be better understood. She compared the two
conceptual frameworks. Tick Yes if they are similar and No if not.

Questions Answers Feedback


Context Yes = correct The context may differ even if
No = incorrect the teacher teaches the
same grade level. Adjusting
to the learners’ context (their
prior knowledge, motivation
and interest, and cognitive
level) is important in
developing effective lessons
for several different subjects

can be similar but not
identical to each other.
Skills and processes Yes = correct According to the K to 12

learners. However,
understanding their context
and considering the diversity
of learners are crucial to
planning effective lessons

Process Questions: (Optional Task only)


What can you say about the similarities and differences between the conceptual frameworks
of the two subjects?

The similarities are they are both experiential and situated learning. The difference between
the two subjects is the Araling Panlipunan aims to develop the pupil’s literate and effective
participation as a citizen of the country while the Mathematics aims to achieve the twin goals
of developing students critical and problem solving skills.

Try to look at the conceptual framework of the other subjects, do they have the same
features? How can you say so?

Yes. All subjects follow the Spiral Progression Approach

Required Task 1: Case Analysis


Sheryll is a new teacher who is assigned to teach Grade 4, 5, and 6 Araling Panlipunan in a
small elementary school. Since she will be teaching three levels of the same subject, her
master teacher told her to check the Araling Panlipunan curriculum. She reflected on the
curriculum by answering the following questions:
What are the contents that she will teach in the subject area?
GRADE 4- Ang Pilipinas
GRADE 5- Pagbuo ng Pilipinas bilang Nasyon
GRADE 6- Mga Hamon at Tugon sa Pagkabansa

What is the difference between Grade 4, 5 and Grade 6 Araling Panlipunan curriculum?

There is no difference between Grade 4, 5 and Grade 6 Araling Panlipunan curriculum


because the overall design curriculum follows the spiral approach across subjects by building
on the same concepts developed in increasing complexity. These grade levels have the
same key stage standards.

What approaches are appropriate and relevant for Grade 4, Grade 5 and Grade 6 Araling

What goal would you


suggest for my class in AP

Study the conceptual framework found in the curriculum guide and reflect on the guiding
principles and philosophies your subject area is anchored on. Are there concepts that are
new to you? Which guiding principles or philosophies do you think are reflected in your
current teaching practices?

YES, the concept is new to me. The guiding principles or philosophy that are reflected in my
teaching strategies is being c constructivist teacher.
Study the core learning area/learning area standards of your subject area. If you are teaching
senior high school, look for the course/subject description. For Kindergarten and ALS, you
may refer to the Introduction or the description of learning strands. These portions in the
curriculum guide give you a broad idea of expectations and/or expected outcomes of the
learning area/course/subject. List down key words/concepts to help you remember the core
learning standards.
Pagkamalikhain
Mapanuri
Pinag kaka -ugnayang yaman
Pang heograpiya

Familiarize yourself with the content and performance standards. How could they help you in
planning your lessons?

Content standards helps, “What do learners want to know, be able to do, and understand?”
while the performance standards “how do we want them to use their learning or
understanding?” This helps me in my lesson planning because they help me meet my
objectives for the lesson

Study the curriculum matrix/guide. You will see that it contains the content standards,
performance standards and learning competencies. How are the learning competencies
related to the content and performance standards? Which do you think could be met in a
short period of time (within a lesson) and which are expected to be attained in a longer
period of time?

The content standard should be met in a short period of time and the performance standard
are expected to be attained in a longer period of time.

Required Task 1: Scenario Analysis
Study the given scenario. Give your reaction based on what you have learned from this
session.

Teacher Rowel plans his lessons well. His lesson plan shows the detailed activities he
intends to do during his actual teaching. He follows a logical sequence of activity as his
lesson would unfold. He prepares instructional materials and integrates ICT. He uses
engaging activities that learners find interesting. His school principal observed him during
one of his classes. He conducted a short review of the previous lesson using an on-line
game application. It took 10 minutes more than he planned it to be. It is evident that the class
enjoyed the on-line game as a form of review. However, the scores of the learners in the
review was not as high as he expected. This review is essential since the previous lesson is
a prerequisite skill for the new lesson. He had given enough number of items during the
review to cover all the needed competencies in preparation for the new lesson. He asked the
learners if they have any questions regarding the previous lesson. When no one asked a
question, he moved on to the lesson proper. He constantly asked his pupils if they
understood the lesson. Everyone said yes. They got to the evaluation part of the lesson. Only
50% of the class got mastery level. Teacher Rowel was disheartened by the results. He
followed everything in his lesson plan, with the exemption of a 5-minute overtime, he believes
that his lesson went accordingly.

Required Task 3: Mentor-Mentee Collaboration


Answer the following processing questions by discussing with your mentor.
What are the different issues addressed by the legal bases of the K to 12 Curriculum? Which
among them affects you the most as a teacher?

The different issues addressed by the legal bases of the K-12 Curriculum are the lack of
resources for implementation, teachers do not find themselves equipped to teach students
because they believe they need more training, and the additional two years of basic
education known as the senior high school have had a negative impact on the lower
economic status of parents.
Among these issues, what greatly affects me as a teacher is the lack of resources like
computers. Our school has no access to internet, that’s why even we want the learners to be
equip with the 21st century skills we cannot provide them because of this dilemma.

What do you think are the top three factors that are given emphasis by the different K to 12
laws and orders? Why do you think so?
I think the top 3 factors that are given emphasis by the different K to 12 laws and orders are
the teachers, the learners and the school environment because they are the center of the
education process.

districts.

Required Task 1: Case Studies


Study the following cases and tell what your actions will be on these scenarios. Base your
answers on the K to 12 Curriculum and the DepEd Vision and Mission. Limit your response
to 100 words.
Case 1: You have a transferee learner who only speaks her mother tongue. As a result, your
learners cannot communicate with her properly and the transferee learner feels left out. What
can you do as her teacher?
Language barriers can make anyone feel hesitant, therefore it's responsibility of the teacher
to reach out to the student. Don't wait for him or her to request assistance. The teacher's
solution to these linguistic hurdles may be to pair the transferee pupils with one of her more
knowledgeable students. This knowledgeable companion can serve as a mentor to new
students as they face the inevitable challenges. Labeling classroom objects is another
alternative. This not only helps students learn classroom routines, but it can also help them
improve their conversation skills. The teacher can also speak with the parents and advise
them about how to teach the new language to their children at home.
Case 2: You have a learner wanting to take up engineering in college. Upon checking his
grades, you have learned that he has not been good in Mathematics. What can you do to
help the learner?
There are several methods in which the teacher might assist the student in excelling in
mathematics. The teacher should teach the students to be confident when answering math
problems. Another thing the teacher should do is encourage students to ask questions and
create space for curiosity. The more students ask for clarification, the better because it only
means they are paying attention and learning. Another way to assist the learner be good at
mathematics is to provide authentic issues that improve students' desire to interact with
math. Teaching kids how to apply math to real-world problems increases their enthusiasm
and comprehension.

Case 3: One of the features of the K to 12 Curriculum is spiral progression. Upon seeing your
learners’ pre-test results, you have realized that they are yet to master last year’s
competencies. What will you do to have them meet the requirements of the new level?
To meet the requirements of the new level, the teacher should conduct a short review of the
certain topic. He/she can give activities that are aligned to the competency of the lesson.
Case 4: You have a class which has a sizable number of over-aged learners who have taken
the grade level multiple times. How will you decide on the learning plan considering your
other learners?
The teacher should provide varied activities that are suitable to the aged and understanding
of his/her learners. The Teacher can provide group tasks wherein they can collaborate with
each other.

What goal would you


suggest for my class in AP
4? (open-ended question)
Study the conceptual framework found in the curriculum guide and reflect on the guiding
principles and philosophies your subject area is anchored on. Are there concepts that are
new to you? Which guiding principles or philosophies do you think are reflected in your
current teaching practices?

YES, the concept is new to me. The guiding principles or philosophy that are reflected in my
teaching strategies is being c constructivist teacher.

Study the core learning area/learning area standards of your subject area. If you are teaching
senior high school, look for the course/subject description. For Kindergarten and ALS, you
may refer to the Introduction or the description of learning strands. These portions in the
curriculum guide give you a broad idea of expectations and/or expected outcomes of the
learning area/course/subject. List down key words/concepts to help you remember the core
learning standards.

Familiarize yourself with the content and performance standards. How could they help you in
planning your lessons?

Content standards helps, “What do learners want to know, be able to do, and understand?”
while the performance standards “how do we want them to use their learning or
understanding?” This helps me in my lesson planning because they help me meet my
objectives for the lesson

Study the curriculum matrix/guide. You will see that it contains the content standards,
performance standards and learning competencies. How are the learning competencies
related to the content and performance standards? Which do you think could be met in a
short period of time (within a lesson) and which are expected to be attained in a longer
period of time?

The content standard should be met in a short period of time and the performance standard
are expected to be attained in a longer period of time.

Session 2: Nature and Purpose of Lesson Planning


Required Task 1: Scenario Analysis
Study the given scenario. Give your reaction based on what you have learned from this
session.

Teacher Rowel plans his lessons well. His lesson plan shows the detailed activities he
intends to do during his actual teaching. He follows a logical sequence of activity as his
lesson would unfold. He prepares instructional materials and integrates ICT. He uses
engaging activities that learners find interesting. His school principal observed him during
one of his classes. He conducted a short review of the previous lesson using an on-line
game application. It took 10 minutes more than he planned it to be. It is evident that the class
enjoyed the on-line game as a form of review. However, the scores of the learners in the
review was not as high as he expected. This review is essential since the previous lesson is
a prerequisite skill for the new lesson. He had given enough number of items during the
review to cover all the needed competencies in preparation for the new lesson. He asked the
learners if they have any questions regarding the previous lesson. When no one asked a
question, he moved on to the lesson proper. He constantly asked his pupils if they
understood the lesson. Everyone said yes. They got to the evaluation part of the lesson. Only
50% of the class got mastery level. Teacher Rowel was disheartened by the results. He
followed everything in his lesson plan, with the exemption of a 5-minute overtime, he believes
that his lesson went accordingly.

session.
Teacher Gemma gives 4 ungraded quizzes in each unit of study. The quizzes are framed
sequentially to have an accumulated record of student success on the unit test. The quizzes
are scored (though not included in the unit grade) so that students can identify where they
need more study and where they are already successful. This is an indicator that Teacher
Gemma can gauge where she will need to spend more time and energy with her instruction
to help students be successful on the unit test. Using this approach, Teacher Gemma has

Now from the scenarios above, what is common? In teaching, you should always consider
the context of your learners. You need to relate the topic or lesson to your learners. In this
case, you are teaching contextually.
Constructivism is commonly used in my classroom. It focuses on my learner’s question
and interest; the learners build on what they already know, and we focus on integrative
learning. I can relate through our lesson about “writing dialogue” I will start off with a song
and teach them how should dialogue be used. Second was mentor text, third one is model or

Required Task 2: Scenario Analysis


Scenario 1
Questions: 1. As an adviser of one of the classes in Grade 1, what should you do to gain the
trust and confidence of the parents and the community? Limit your answer to 200 words
(maximum)
ANSWER: You may hold a meeting to promote the benefits of having a positive relationship
between the school and the community. Allow them to perceive and understand the school's
situation in order to provide a healthy learning experience for the students. Showing care and
treating them as if they were your own child is an excellent way to acquire the trust of the
parents and the community.

2. Who are the persons in the school community that you can tap to help you establish a
good relationship with parents?
ANSWER: We might tap our students and seek our administration for permission to organize
a school activity that would benefit both teachers and parents, especially the students to
maintain and develop a positive connection with parents and the community.

3. In what ways can you better communicate with the parents?


Answer: Because most parents want the best for their children, you can use this concern to
gain their support and trust by simply demonstrating how much you care for them. This will
be beneficial for all of you, particularly because it will help us to use appropriate teaching
techniques, monitor students' academic performance, and even discipline students.

Preliminary Activity: During your first month of teaching, were you able to get to know the
parents of your learners? What were your struggles and how did you overcome them? Limit
your response to 200 words.
Reach out to your colleagues (preferably newly-hired teachers) and share your thoughts with
your co-teachers. Write down the ideas you got from them:
During my first month of teaching I was able to get to know some of the parents of my
pupils.Some of my struggles was communication with other parents and lack of participation
of school activities. We all know that a good relationship between families and schools is a
top factor in positive students outcomes.But when families are hard to reach or seem
reluctant to participate ,building those relationships can be tough.I overcome those struggles
by offering the option or having meetings over the phone or via video conferencing for those
parents that are not able to attend the meeting.And let them know that I want to work with
them towards our shared goal of helping their child thrive.

Key Topic: Role of Parents? (K Melhuish, S., E. Sammons, P. Siraj-Blatchford, & B. Taggart
(2004))

Required Task 1: Writing The following are some common school situations. Write the
strategy that you think will best suit the situation to be able to create a good relationship with
the parents/guardians and the wider school community. Limit your response to 100 words for
each situation.

1.Claire is always absent and you never receive an excuse letter from her parents/guardians.
Answer: When a student is chronically absent, contacting parents is usually effective
especially if you emphasize how you've missed the student in class and hope he or she is all
right, rather than demanding to know the reason for the absence. It's also helpful to have a
conversation with the student the next time they attend class, stressing that you've noticed
their absence, and you care about them and their education.
I always try to avoid asking a student why they've been absent. In my experience, if they've
been absent for a legitimate reason, they'll tell you. Other times, there are personal or family
issues they may prefer not to share. When a student with a string of absences returns to
class, it's important to welcome them back and help them get up to speed on missing work.
Giving your students a hard time about poor attendance is counterproductive and doesn't
make them want to return to school in the future.

2. Your lesson for tomorrow is about different professions/jobs. You want your learners to
meet professionals and those working in the community. In planning the lesson, you wanted
to prioritize the safety and maximize the learning experience at the same time. You thought
about conducting a field trip, but it will be very costly and will require rigorous planning to
make sure that the activity will be safe. What is an alternative way to conduct this activity?

Field trips are often considered a key part of the school experience. Students often look back
on them as some of their favorite and most memorable days of school. However, traditional
field trips are not always feasible options. They can be expensive, time-consuming to
organize, and quite stressful in action.
Perhaps your most simple and convenient option for a field trip alternative is to show your
class about documentary of different professions/job. Movies have a very unique ability to
transport our learners to other places, and documentaries in particular can be very
educational and revealing about a faraway place or topic. No matter the subject, you can find
a documentary that your students will be interested in.

3. Mrs. Cruz, a parent, went to your class confronting you because her daughter told her that
you moved the child’s seat away from her friends to make her concentrate on your lessons.
Your actions were triggered by her non submission of assignment and throwing a crumpled
paper at you. How will you explain your side to Mrs. Cruz?

Instantly thank the parent for bringing her concern to your attention. Apologize for both the
problem and for causing parents concern. Take any steps necessary to calm Mrs. Cruz and
help her to relax.
Discuss with Mrs. Cruz about misbehavior of her child in a nice way and the reason why you
move her child away from her friends to make her concentrate on your lesson. Be careful the
language used when communicating with parents. End your conversation by reiterating that
you’re going to take care of the problem.

4. The general PTA meeting is fast approaching, and you need to ensure at least 90 percent
attendance of parents. How are you going to invite the parents to ensure their attendance
and participation?
To ensure their attendance and participation I will send home personal letters to notify
parents of conference dates. Outline an agenda that will interest them and emphasize the
importance of the conference to their children's education. Schedule conferences for
students who have siblings in the same school first and coordinate conference times with the
siblings' teachers. Do everything possible to avoid scheduling siblings' conferences on
different days or at widely disparate times. Base the length of the conferences on the needs
of the students. If necessary, schedule two consecutive periods with parents you suspect
might require more time. Send home personal invitations to the conferences and ask parents
to RSVP by a specific date. Telephone parents who do not respond and encourage them to
attend. Send home reminders one week before the conferences. Contact parents who do not
show up and try to reschedule.

Required Task 2: Scenario Analysis Read the following scenarios. Write YES if it talks about
a healthy parent-teacher relationship and NO if otherwise.

_______NO____ 1. Benedick, a Grade 1 pupil, never speaks in the class of Teacher


Consuelo. Teacher Consuelo seeks for advice from Benedick’s previous teachers. Contrary
to what she knows, the teachers said that Benedick was a talkative pupil. During the
distribution of cards, she talked to the student’s mother and found out that after his father’s
death, he got upset, which led to Benedick’s disinterest in socialization. Teacher Consuelo
consulted Benedick’s condition with the School Guidance Counselor.
_____NO______ 2. Mrs. Maureen De Cello was an alumna of Bucao Integrated School and
a mother of a Kinder learner in the same school. She was impressed by the improvements
made in the school and expressed her willingness to contribute to the further improvement of
the school. She asked the teacher of her daughter, of what else she can contribute to the
school. However, nothing came into fruition.
______YES_____ 3. Angelo always skips class every afternoon. He never does his
assignments too. He is one of the struggling learners in Ms. Bada’s class. Since he has been
acting this way for almost two weeks, Ms. Bada immediately called his father, Mr. Cruz and
set an appointment. She told Mr. Cruz of Angelo’s behavior in school and he promised that
he will be watchful of Angelo.
_______NO____ 4. During the online class where Janna is attending, she failed to
understand the instructions of the teacher because of internet connection failure. Mrs.
Manza, her mother, sent a message to her teacher and asked for further discussion about
the instruction because Janna was not able to get it correctly. Her teacher did not respond to
her.
____YES_______ 5. Mrs. Hugo sent three activity sheets to Lerio’s house through the
Barangay Health Worker (BHW) for her to answer. As soon as Lerio finished answering, her
mother brought back the activity sheets to school. She explained that she is on her way to
the market so she didn’t wait for the BHW to come over and get back the activity sheets. Mrs.
Hugo was very grateful.

share it with your co-teachers.
1.Connect parents and schools
2.Create an organizational structure

Key Topic 1: The DepEd Management Structure


Required Task 1: Policy Reading
1. Why is there a need to rationalize and restructure the Department of Education?
Answer: Restructuring the Department of Education was required to implement our strategic
plan for progress in every school, particularly in light of the changing needs and demands of
our society. Similarly, on this day of pandemic, the department of education must redesign
the system to deal with the current situation.
2. In what ways can the restructured DepEd, through the Rationalization Program, help you
as a DepEd personnel and a public-school teacher?
Answer: It will act as a guide for teachers in adopting teaching norms and standards as well
as processes to meet the present demands on the educational system. It will also give all
teachers an understanding of how to use tactics to make their work easier and more
productive.

Key Topic 5: School-based Management (SBM)


Required Task 2: Scenario Analysis To foster harmonious relationships with the wider school
community, it is important to involve learners, parents, and other stakeholders in identifying
and resolving issues and concerns in the school community. Discuss how you can help in
each scenario and involve some key personnel who can help you resolve the following
challenges.

Scenario 1 Teacher Lozano, the mother of one of your advisory students, visited you in the
school because of a bullying incident that you are not aware of. She was very angry and
disappointed about what happened because the incident was not addressed and resolved
properly. Her daughter is still afraid and decided not to go to school that day. The incident
happened during science time because the teacher was late to enter the class. You also had
other classes to attend to and had no chance to meet your advisory class during that time.
Who should you seek help to?
Answer: To avoid such bullying among the students, she needed to first approach the
science teacher and request if she was able to attend the class on time. On the other hand,
she needed to seek assistance from the guidance councilor to provide adequate procedures
for disciplining the concerned students. She should also notify the bully student's parents or
guardians so that they can discipline their child.

Scenario 2 Teacher Mary Ann, a fellow teacher whom you consider a friend, messaged you
on Facebook and told you that she will be absent tomorrow. She asked you to substitute all
her five classes. Without letting you respond, she already sent you the learning materials for
her lessons tomorrow. However, you also have classes to attend and your learners are
expecting to deliver a performance task that they prepared for. What are you going to do as a
colleague and who should you direct her to?
Answer: As a fellow teacher and a friend, I must accept Teacher Mary Ann's request for
assistance in determining if her cause was an emergency or an urgent matter. First, I will
counsel my buddy and tell her that our students are our responsibility, and I will encourage
her to avoid being absent, especially when there are many tasks to complete. Then I'll enlist
the services of the floating instructors, who are in charge of handling such tasks when regular
teachers weren’t able to attend the class. In addition, I will endorse the teaching resources
that my friend gave to me in order to make her teaching and handling the class easier and
more effective.

Scenario 3 Lito, the class president of your advisory class, was elected as the president of
the Supreme Student Government (SSG). After three months, his subject teachers are
having trouble with his class standing because of his frequent absences and non-submission
of required written and performance tasks. Lito is getting overwhelmed with the various
school activities he manages. What are you going to do as the adviser?
Answer: I will conduct a make-up class for the concerned students who are affected by the
school activities so that they can cope with the lesson and complete the needed written
works and performance task.

What did you learn about the discussion with your mentor? Did your perspective change
when you discussed the scenario with your mentor?
Answer: We may define our boundaries in our obligations and responsibilities by being aware
about the Magna Carta for Public School Teachers. If necessary, I've used the laws to

Session 3 – Professional Associations for Teachers
Preliminary Activity
How did you deal with challenges on the first days of reporting in your workstation? Write
your answer in the field below and answer the questions that follow.
Like other firsts in my life, my first day as a teacher had me feeling excited and nervous in
equal measure. However, I tried not to worry too much and told myself that even the most
seasoned teachers feel apprehensive about meeting new students at the beginning. My first
teaching experience taught me a lot about what it means to be a teacher and a lot about
myself. For example, I always knew that coming up with lesson plans was not easy, so I
learned to prepare it ahead of time. I also learned that I do not have a good sense of time
when I am teaching, so I now know to make sure to make a schedule of what will be done at
what time.
I also learned that the highest priority for teachers was forming relationships with students—
everything else fell into place after that.

Processing Questions:
What challenges did you encounter in your first days? Input your answer here.

The challenges that I encountered in my first day in school is first, the transportation. The
distance of the school from my house is very far that’s why I had to wake up very early plus
the school is located in the mountain and the road is very difficult. Second is the first
impression of my co- teachers. I am very shy and nervous to talk to them. They assigned me
to Grade 6 pupils and what makes me more nervous is that they give me math subject that I
hated the most but still I accept it whole heartedly.
How did you overcome these challenges? Input your answer here.

On the next days, I learned to adjust my daily routine going to work. I woke up very early and
arrived early in the school. I become also confident to talked to my co-workers and everyday
I always study my lesson in math so that I can teach it confidently to my pupils.

Did you rely on a specific person or people? How did you seek help? Input your answer here.

No, I haven’t relied on any person. I just learn to observe and adjust to my new environment.
Required Task 1: Research on Professional Associations for Teachers

Teacher Marie has a big family. She has four sons and two daughters. Her husband has no

their needs and expenses.

Principal Santos has observed the spending pattern of the newly hired teachers in their
school. Their lifestyle includes passion for international travels, fashionable clothes, and
latest gadgets. They even invest part of their salaries to an online business that is not
authorized and does not provide sure income. No wonder that they are always hopeful for
paydays.

Teachers are very luxurious to things that


Main Problem are not important and even invest without
knowing first if it is a legit investment.

Key Topic 3: Teacher Financial Literacy Concerns


“SANGLA-ATM”
Every payday, most of the teachers in a school would either go to work late or go
home early. They have to visit a well-known loan shark in the locality who is holding their
Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Cards due to loans. The loan shark knows the Personal
Identification Numbers (PIN) as well of borrowers which are supposed to be private. These
teachers will have to get the remaining balance out of their salaries. It is automatic that their
monthly installment payment and interest value from loans are deducted in their accounts.
Optional Task
How do you feel about the financial condition of these teachers?
I felt very sad to all the teachers who approach loan sharks only because they wanted to
have a good life for their families, even though they have very little wages left to them. Even
they don't want to do this, they are forced to do so because the teacher's salary is not
enough to meet our needs.

Optional Task
Suppose you are saving P12,000.00 in a bank for your first year of teaching (equivalent to
P1,000.00 per month). The interest rate is 4% per annum. Compute the value that you may
get after five years of saving.
Year Amount at the Start Interest Earned per Amount at the End of
of the Year Year the Year
1 12,000.00 480.00 12480
2 12,480.00 499.2 12979.2
