A VERY NICE EXPERIENCE OF MINE

It was February 11,2010 when we had our observation of the General Demonstration of PNU interns in Hondagua Elementary School in Hondagua,Quezon.When I enterd in the school.I was amazed because the learning environment there was different.I saw the cleanliness of the sorrowndings.I also visited the classrooms,it was full of different learning tools related to science,like the solar system that was painted on the ceiling accompanied with color blue;the mural of ecosystem and water cycle painted on the wall.When I look around,I saw the structures of male and female reproductive organs and so much more about the subject.After explaining the science resoures water I went to the classroom that was assinged to us for observation.

The interns that I observed wasMs.Jackielou Manalo.She was very relaxed that time,no signs of nervousness on her face.She started her demonstration with prayer.Her subjectmatter was about Peso and centavo in Mathematics.She motevated her pupil very well,all the pupils were very active in discussion as well as in different activities,individual or group.it was very attractive and colorful.She used play money,coins,pictures and box.She also made a small sari-sari store that she used in one of her activities.However as she go on in her discussion the pupils are also making thier noise.Eventhough shr got irratated, you cannot see it to her face.She always smile.But the pupils didn't stop being noisy and others are walking,so she uttered... "Pag hindi kayo tumigil,dudukutin ko mga mata nyo" so her pupil keep silence. I was surprised for what she was saying,but I dont blamed behaved,the puils were hyperactive. So..... to make it short the lesson was ended.Prof. Avila was the one who observed comment to Jackie's demonstration told to her that next time do not used bad words or some negative language to discipline the pupils.But it is natural,she did her best and she got 93% for her performance.I could say that she did very well in her demonstration teaching.And it was good also that I and other FS students experienced to observed the final demonstration by the interns because we acquired ideas that we can use the time comes that we in our internship and conduct our demonstration teaching.

THE DANCING TEACHER

February 2 2010, tuesday. I made my observation again in my assigned school. i got there at 9:15 am, it was about to start their second subject in the morning and the subject is MSEP. when i entered the room they greet me "good morning mam" I was very flattered because that is the first time they greeted me and they called me Maam.

The teacher started the lesson, her topic was about polka dance. She got the book on the shelf and started reading it. She gave some important information about the topic and its origin. after giving some inputs, she asked her pupils to stand to execute the different step in polka. All the pupils was laughing because they said that they will see there teacher how to dance. they began to follow the first step and so on. while the pupils imitating the dance executed by there teacher, they were laughing. "ang galing naman ni mam" they uttered. I was standing at the back observing and watching what they are doing i was very happy and glad that day because even though the teacher doesnt know how to dance she gave all her effort to teach her pupils and let them experience that kind of activity.

When I finished my observation i thought that the teacher was the best person in the world. No one in this world that has a long patience to teach a child, only the TEACHER. Because all the things and knowledge taught to us by our teacher, came from their heart and from their experiences.
