My Educational Philosophy
I believe in this fragile existence, despite the disparity of the learners they are
peculiar from each other.
They are gifted with innate talents and skills with different mode on the
expansion of knowledge, so that their range of learning will not be isolated.
They are be mold to be competent. Of being an independent individual.
Globally competent of being a Good leader and a great follower.
I believe that in order to meet my Bourne in teaching, there should be an
effective wayof teaching-learning process. Everybody should cooperate to reach
for the star.
I believe that educators need to be concerned with facilitating motivation by
strategies that enhances learner’s effort. And supports learner’s natural
curiosity and motivation differences in learner’s perception of optimal novelty
and difficulty relevance and personal choice and control.

Write your observation report here:
Name of School Observed: Tolosa National High School
Location of the School: Brgy. Malbog Tolosa, Leyte
Date of visit: August 04,2015
The school is far from the national highway. Which is one of the advantage of it that there is
no noise of motorcycles in which is effective for the learning of the students/pupils. The outside
environment of the school is clean, surrounded with trees and not polluted.
The school campus is wide and some of the building are new. I can see different colors like green,
yellow, blue and white in the school that makes it more attractive but most of it is green because it is
surrounded with tress which makes the school atmosphere fresh and airy.
Some of the classroom are already renovated, fixed and painted with cool colors it has the color of
nature the walls are white and yellow, the roof is green and the ceiling of every room is white.
The offices are well equipped and ventilated. Documents were arranged in proper places. Personnel’s
are so hospitable. The library is full of books, quite, clean and well arranged. And so with the canteen
which is clean and full of nutritious snacks and foods.
14. FieldStudy| 13
1. How do the school and the classroom in particular impact on the learning of the students
going to school? What are your conclusions?
I conclude that a school has a great impact in learning in the sense that they have a lot
of students and teachers in the school and that only shows how great the impact of the school
to the particular learning process. Therefore I conclude that a school having a conducive
learning environment, facilities and the availability of resources motivates the student to attend
school even it is far from home.
2. How does this relate to your knowledge of child and adolescent development/ how does
this relate to your knowledge of facilitating learning?
A childneeds a conducive environment,free from distractionsand noises for an effective
learning. This is because they are still developing and they need nourishment. As a teacher in
every meeting I will be using various and novelty learning materials which is appropriate tools
in understanding and developing their nature that would help in the teaching learning process
to takes place.
My Analysis
15. FieldStudy| 14
My Reflection
1. Would you like to teach in the school environment you just observed? Why? Why not?
I would like to teach to the school I have just observed because the foundation of
education here is good, and the environment. The building is situated in good place which
provides proper ventilation and outclass environment.
2. What kind of school campus is conducive to learning?
On my own opinion a school that is free from noise, plants are visible to give fresh air,
offices and classroom is well organized and accommodating, has complete facilities such as
standard size classrooms, laboratory and library. Cleanand well maintainedsurrounding which
hand over and motivate students to learn.
3. What kind of classroom is conducive to learning?
A classroom weighed as a conducive to learning if its clean, well ventilated with proper
lighting,properly decorated and the furniture’s are properly arranged. Colors that have cooling
effects. Lastly a classroom that is not crowded to prevent classroom management problem to
maximize learning.
4. In the future, how can you accomplish your answer in number 3?
I could accomplish my plans in the classroom by being resourceful and innovative for
the beautification and well organized facilities. I’ll be providing facilities that could enhance
the skills of my students and better understand the subject matter
5. Write your additional learning’s and insights here:
I learned that every learner needs a learning atmosphere that greatly motivate students
to learn. This field study help me to become aware about how to attain good and effective school
environment and how to supply the learners, a classroom that is conducive to learning.

MY PERSONAL ILLUSTRATION OF AN EFFECTIVE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT
An effective school environment is a part that furnish students the opportunity to attain
high standard education that they can use in real world. A school where student feel good, safe
and happy; and most of all the atmosphere which elevate values to mold them as a good
individual in a society and as a family member.
One of the main difficultiesinterms of study is that we are aware in choosing our school
to study. Which reflect me because, we wanted to attain the quality education we are looking for.

My Analysis
23. FieldStudy| 22
My Reflection
1. While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own experiences when you
were their age? What similarities or differences do you have with the learners you
observed?
Going back to the days when I was the same with their age, I am also fun of playing,
running and talking a lot with my seatmates and always caught and scolded by my teachers
and sometimes I found myself looking outside and thinking in depth. But I differ from them,
because I focus on my study though I’m talkative I always participate in class discussion.
2. Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons. How did she/he
help or not help you with your needs (physical, emotional, social, and cognitive)? How
did it affect you?
The teacher that I could never forget is Ma’am Lilia E. Diaz I idolized her
though she was terror, however she has also this kindness, humility and have a sense
of humor. She discussed her students in the way that her students can relate and enjoy
she was very talented and motivate me to show my talents. Her lessons and values are
in calculated in our hearts and she was one of my inspiration that’s why I started
loving teaching profession.
3. Share your other insights here.
Teaching is both a vocation and a mission. The teacher should relate lessons that are
relevant to the needs and interest of the learners to explore through engaging them in
oral discussion or group activities such role playing and games where they can
participate and be motivated to learn. Being a catalyst for a change of one’s
development is even harder mission yet touching, this is such a priceless most of all
when you mold them as the best of what they can be though it is hard but rewarding.
24. FieldStudy| 23
My Portfolio
Which is your favorite theory of development? How can this guide you as a future
teacher?
My favorite theory is Social Interaction in learning and development of Lev
Vygotsky. This is through scaffolding learners could develop from their actual zone of
development to the zone of proximal development. This really shows and inspires me
that teacher’s task as a catalyst or facilitator is such rewarding, whereas they are the
way for a child to reach its fullest potentials.
Vygotsky’s Social Development Theory
Social interaction plays a fundamental role in the process of cognitive development. In
contrast to Jean Piaget’s understanding of child development (in which development
necessarily precedes learning), Vygotsky felt social learning precedes development. He
states: “Every function in the child’s cultural development appears twice: first, on the
social level, and later, on the individual level; first, between people
(interpsychological) and then inside the child (intrapsychological).” (Vygotsky, 1978).
The More Knowledgeable Other (MKO). The MKO refers to anyone who has a better
understanding or a higher ability level than the learner, with respect to a particular task,
process, or concept. The MKO is normally thought of as being a teacher, coach, or
older adult, but the MKO could also be peers, a younger person, or even computers.
The zone of proximal development (ZPD) has been defined as "the distance between
the actual developmental level as determined by independent problem solving and the
level of potential development as determined through problem solving under adult
guidance, or in collaboration with more capable peers " Lev Vygotsky views
interaction with peers as an effective way of developing skills and strategies. He
suggests that teachers use cooperative learning exercises where less competent children
develop with help from more skillful peers - within the zone of proximal development.
Vygotsky believed that when a student is in the ZPD for a particular task, providing the
appropriate assistance will give the student enough of a "boost" to achieve the task.
The ZPD has become synonymous in the literature with the term scaffolding. However,
it is important to note that Vygotsky never used this term in his writing, and it was
introduced by Wood et al. (1976). Once the student, with the benefit of scaffolding,
masters the task, the scaffolding can then be removed and the student will then be able
to complete the task again on his own.

Date of visit: August 04,2015
During my observation, I have observed that the age of the learners do not vary
talkingabout their behavior and characteristics for thereason that there are learners that
are silent type and there are also learners that are talkative but these learners cooperate
actively in the teaching-learning process.
There are 22 boys and 19 girls in the class. Their age range from 13-16. Each of them
have unlike characteristics. Some of them can do independently, while others depend
upon the management of their teacher they really need to be guided by their teacher.
Most of them can work independently but sometimes it depends upon the complexity of
the activity provided by the teacher.
The span of attention is very short, they can focus for a long period of time but their skills
and concentration depends upon their interest about the topic offered by the teacher.

An ObservationGuide for the CLASSROOM VISIT
Be guided by these questions as you do your observation of the classroom management. It is also
good to ask the teacher for additional information so you can verify your observation. Write your
notes below, and then organize your data in the table that follows:
1. Are there areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage of teaching aids, books,
students’ belongings, supplies, etc)
2. Are there rules and procedures posted in the room?
3. Did the students participate in making the classroom rules?
4. What are the daily routines done by the teacher? (Prayer, attendance, assignment of
monitors, warm-up activities, etc.) How are they done?
5. Is there a seating arrangement? What is the basis of this arrangement?
6. Observe the noise level in the classroom. How is this managed?
7. If a learner is not following instructions is off-task, what does the teacher do? (behavior
strategies)
8. What does the teacher do to reinforce positive behaviors? (behavior strategies)
28. FieldStudy| 27
Observationnotes:
There are areas where the teacher store her teaching aids, their outputs and as well as
cleaning materials that can be found in the corner of the classroom. There are rules and
regulations posted.
Their daily routines are cleaning inside and outside the classroom before 7:10 am,
then the flag ceremony after that the teacher starts the class with a warm-up activities. By
greeting “Good Morning” to each and every one, Prayer and action song.
Their setting arrangement consist of two rows. The first row are the girls and the next
row are the boys to make the noise level manageable. Whenever the learner is not following
instructions or misbehaving the teacher repeat and reconstruct it to make it more
understandable and talk to the learner after class for those who is misbehaving.
The teacher reinforce the learner by giving praises and reward such showing positive
behavior by saying yes! Very Good! And having additional score.

2. What should the teacher have in mind when she/he designs the classroom
organization and routines? What theories and principles should you have in mind?
Teacher should put in mind that designing the classroom organization and
routines that would avoid some of the distractions that keeps the students from
functioning effectively and would affect the student’s behavior and learning.
Nevertheless classroom organization help the learner and teacher gain effortless
contact to teaching materials, provides freedom to move easily within the class and
most of all the interaction of teacher and students.
Behaviorist theory of John B. Watson and Higher conditioning of Ivan
Pavlov. Behaviorist theory should be considered that the teacher’s role is to
established rules and procedures and to implement these rules clearly and
appropriate to students. Teacher can use different kinds of neutral stimulus to
become the conditioned stimulus for the students. As for addition the positive
reinforcement, such as verbal praises, reward and punishment for the compliance
of the rule.
3. Which behavior strategies were effective in managing the behavior of the learners?
In motivating students? Why were they effective?
The behavior strategy that is effective in managing the behavior of the learner
is being the medium to the students, as a teacher you should show that they are
responsible if they want pupils to be responsible as well. I think that the teacher’s
strategies are very effective because pupils are actively participating in class.
Students wants to be acknowledge for their hard work this boost their confidence
and being consistent in having high grades. In motivating students it will be
effective if the instructional materials is appropriate.
My Analysis
31. FieldStudy| 30
1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade/year level do
you see yourself? What routine and procedures would you consider for this level? Why?
I can see myself in the future as a teacher in high school especially in grade 8.
Because at this grade, they are more mature compared to lower grades. They are still
manageable though they are independent, they can work on their own without
command. I will implement routines and procedures such as cleaners of the day to
clean the classroom before and after the class, prayer, checking of attendance, warm-
up activities and also the rules and regulation to be followed strictly so that there would
be a smooth flow of teaching-learning process.
2. Make a list of the rules you are likely to implement in this level. Why would you choose
these rules?
The following rules are:
Maintain cleanliness and orderliness of the classroom
Speak English and Filipino
Wear complete uniform
Avoid loitering during class hours
I choose these rules because I want to develop their sense of self responsibility and it is
achievable for the students to have a good character and discipline inside and outside
the class room.
3. Should learners be involved in making class rules? Why?
Students should also be involved in making the class rules so that it would be
clear to them and they will understand the importance of the rules and regulations that
there is an appropriate incentive and punishment for the compliance of these rules.
This is one way of understanding the learners and achieving cooperation among them.
My Reflection

My Portfolio
The classroom is small but clean and neat. Papers and documents were
arranged in proper place. The windows were open which provides a proper ventilation
to the learners. The classroom organization of students where they are arranged
accordingly to their sex which minimize the noise and easily for them to move freely
and comfortable to their arrangement.
The teacher uses the method of visual aid in Manila paper for addressing the
learning needs of her learners. This is to endure the learning of the learners and make
the learners actively participating in the teaching-learning process.

OBSERVATION REPORT
Name of School Observed: Tolosa National High School
Location of the School: Brgy. Malbog Tolosa, Leyte
Date of visit: August 04,2015
I visited a Grade 9 classroom under the advisory of Ms. Maronnette Encina, with 41
students. There are 19 boys and 22 girls. They have different religionbut then they respect each
other.
During discussion the interaction between each other including the teacher are present.
The students are noisy due to that they answer in chorus during the discussion of the lesson.
The students interact with their classmates when they have activities, by sharing their ideas
through their experience. They also interact with each other having their own business aside
the lesson. The interaction to students to teacher is when there is a question or clarification
about the lesson this made the flow of discussion alive.
The student who sit in front are the group of student who interact more to the teacher
and more participative compare to those who are at the back they are the students who need
more attention. However there is also an instance that they participate during discussion. As I
observed most of the girls participate actively every class discussion rather than boys.
There is an instancethat the teacher asked questionand a student cannot answer it some
of his/her classmate try to help him/her seatmate; and somebody from other groups especially
girls raise their hands to answer the question to call them instead.
As I observed them outside the classroom, they group themselves I think based on their
locality at home, gender, hobbies and interest.
They interact with each by bullying somebody, mostly boys are fun of playing and
loitering around, and they talks about their experiences what happened last day and their
favorite super heroes and cartoon character. While girls are sitting with their friends and
chatting in television, Korean singer, and anime characters.
36. FieldStudy| 35
1. Identify the persons who play key roles in the relationships and interactions in the
classrooms. What roles do they play? Is there somebody who appears to be the leader, a
mascot/joker, an attention seeker, a little teacher, a doubter/pessimist?
As I observed, in a classroom they are all diverse each have skills, innate talents
and abilities. There are students which plays as a leader, a joker that makes all his
classmates laugh and an attention seeker because he likes to sing and dance. There is
also a little teacher which always remind about their mistakes and behaviors- in good
manner. These every role of the students considered as the relationship and
interactions in the classroom.
2. Are students coming from minority group accepted or rejected by the others? How is this
shown?
There are students who belonged to minority group in a way to their religion.
Despite their differences in attitudes skills, socio-economic status, and abilities they
respect each other. The teacher also shows that student diversity can promote harmony
in a way of making her classroom perfect place to be.
3. How does the teacher influence the class interaction considering the individual differences
of the students?
The teacher influencesthe class interactionbyencouraging/let thestudents share
their personal experiences through sharing to the class, Students may realize that they
have something in common despite their differences.
4. What factors influence the grouping of learners outside the classroom?
The factors that bring about the grouping of learners outside the classroom are;
Gender, Socio-Economic Status, Locality of Home, Hobbies and Interest.
Your Analysis
37. FieldStudy| 36
1. How did you feel being in that classroom? Did you feel a sense of oneness or unity
among the learners and between the teacher and the learners?
I feel glad and comfortable in observing in that classroom since the teacher
acknowledge our presence and the students are very polite to us. As what I see there
is really unity among the students. With only one goal which is “To Learn” I can
sense the oneness among the students and the teacher.
2. In the future, how would you want the learners in your classroom to interact? How will
you make this happen?
I want my learners in the future to participate actively in the teaching-learning
process. I also want them to show respect with their teacher as well as to their
classmates. I could make this happen by imposing rules and regulations, good
classroom management and teachingstrategiesthat wouldconsider student diversity.
Through this they will be mold as a good person withgood character and competitive
learners.

How will you encourage all learners, regardless of religious, ethnic or racial
background, to interact and participate?
I could encourage all learners regardless of religious, ethnic or racial background
to interact and participateby initiatingco-curricularactivitiessuchas “Lingong Wika”,
Drama, Cultural Shows, and exposing them to other students with diverse backgrounds
and experience this will promote diversity awareness and help student focus on their

OBSERVATION REPORT
Name of School Observed: Tolosa National High School
Location of the School: Brgy. Malbog Tolosa, Leyte
Date of visit: August 04,2015
As I have observed the Grade 9 class I notice that there are individual differences among the
learners not just physical but also theirabilities.Thereare learners that seem tobe performing well during
class discussion. These are the high achieving learners who usually participated and actively respond
during discussion. In the class of Ma’am Encina I guess there were just 4 students who belong to high
achieving learners and the rest was the learners that seems to be behind. These are the low achieving
learners who usually sit at the back portion of the classroom.
As I validate the teacher about the background of her student I found out that most of her learners came
from average family and income. Low learners their family, most of them are less-fortunate that their
parents are not freely supportive in terms of giving attention.
The high achieving learners usually finish activities, they are the one who lead their classmates in the
student teacher interaction during class discussion. However, low-achieving learners can’t easily
understand and accomplish activitiesunlessguided by the teacher. There are instances that lowachieving
learners hesitated to answer for they are afraid of getting wrong.
As I observed the teacher uses different methods in addressing the learning needs of her learners.
Methods such as visual aids like manila paper, laptop; acquiring group activities. To ensure the learning
of the learners.

My Analysis
1. Did your observation match the information given by the teacher? Were you able to
correctly identify who among the students performed well and who did not? What behavior
helped you identify them? (Volunteering to answer responding to teacher’s directions, etc.)
Yes the information given by the teacher matched my observation. I was able to
identify the well-performing students since they are the one who recite or raise their
hands when the teacher ask some questions. They are very attentive during attentive
during discussion and got high scores during exam. Whereas, student who did not
perform well were always doubted and shy to share their ideas they are afraid that their
classmates will laugh at them if they getting wrong.
2. Describe the differences in ability levels of the students in the class. Is there a wide gap
between the students who are performing well and those that are not?
In terms of the differences in ability levels of the students in the class, there is
really but not wide gap because they differ from each other. Those who performed well
in the class has the ability to easily understand the; lesson during discussion, but those
who are low performing pupils they cannot relate much during the discussion. They are
ashamed to show their skills because they don’t have much confidence in giving their
answers.
3. Describe the methods used by the teacher in handling the students’ differences in abilities.
How did the students respond to the teacher?
The teacher uses methods and learning styles in handling the student’s
differences in abilities such as Q and A method, discussing lessons with concrete objects
and conducting experimentation but it always depends on subject matter. Due to these
methods, some student are motivated and they respond actively to their teacher
42. FieldStudy| 41
1. Recall the time when you were in the elementary or high school. Recall the high and low
achievers in your class. How did your teacher deal with differences in abilities? Was your
teacher effective?
Back in my high school days, each section was grouped base on the General
Percentage Average. So I didn’t see the big gap among us in our section but the
competition was so close. Most of our teachers used discussion, experiment, reporting
and role playing procedures. All of us took the same activities. The high achievers in
class were given awards by our teacher and was even ranked them from 1-10. Whereas,
the low achievers still excel through their talents and abilities. They are also awarded in
their abilities such as athletes of the year, artist of the year and dancers of the year.
Yes I could say that our teacher is effective because she can make us more attentive
during classes and cooperative in times of discussion. She always knows how to
understand us and she has its own way of showing it.
My Reflections
43. FieldStudy| 42
My Portfolio
With the principle of individual differences in mind, what methods and strategies will you
remember in the future to ensure that you will be able to meet the needs of both the high
and low achievers in your class?
As a future educator I will practice more often the best strategies that motivate
the learners to learn. I will guide them to build a classroom that could be considered as
a market place of ideas where the students has the freedom to participateand share their
own knowledgeand opinionswithrespects to theirabilities,social backgrounds and level
of intelligence. Aside from that I should be prepared and flexible all the time. Lastly I
will treat my students equally whether they are fast or slow learners. I will provide group
activities with simple to complex problems engaging low achievers to high achievers to
ensure the needs of the students with individual differences.

Your findings and recommendations in the learner Development Profile will help you answer
the questions here.
1. From your home visit and interview, what do you think is the style of parenting experienced
by the learner? Explain your answer.
From the home I visited and interviewed, they practice the authoritative style of
parenting. Parents are not so strict at all time. And achieve a good blend. I agree in the
kind of parenting that they applied to their kids. Being strict and lenient is helpful in
raising a child nowadays. They are firm yet loving. They treat children with respect and
warmth; make children understand consequence of their behavior.
2. Relating your data with what you learned from child development, what family factors do
you think contribute to the development and over-all adjustment of the learner in school?
As what I have learned in Child and Adolescent Development, The family factors that
contribute to the development and over-all adjustment of the learner in school are: First,
the Emotional-moral development; on how the learners are nurtured by his parents,
Second is the financial setting and Last is the cultural background of the family unit.
3. Does the communication between the home-school have an effect on the learner? If yes,
what are these effects?
Yes, I do believe that communication between the home-school have an effect t
consider the home-school link. Learner can absorb the way they communicate in their
home, they can bring this in school which reflects how the learner nurtured and reared
by his parents at home because I believe that “education begins at home”.
Your Analysis
51. FieldStudy| 50
1. Reflect on your own development as a child. What type of parenting did you experience?
How did it affect you?
When I was a child until this present, I observed that the style of parenting I have is
Authoritative style, wherein my parents are loving despite of being firm. They treat us with
respect and warmth. They always remind us about the consequences of our behavior. They
always told us the saying “Do not do unto others the things that you don’t want others do
to you”. They give us clear and reasonable expectations.
And I am so blessed for having a parents like them, because they molded me into a
better person. I inherited the attitude of my mother which is being understanding and
loving. I could still manage any circumstances that come into my life for I always had
patience in making or doing things.
2. As a future teacher, how would you establish good home-school collaboration? How can
you work well with the parents? How can you help them? How can they help you?
As a future teacher to be, I will create a good working relationshiptothe parents.
Their collaboration would be a great help in regards to home-school link. I will make
sure that they will do their job in providing the needs of their children. I can work well
with the parents through consulting the behavior of the child in their house. I will also
inform the parents about the performance of their childinmy class. Through thisparent-
teacher communication, I can say there is a good relationship between home-school
links.
