Reflection:
Preschooler is the first stage that a child goes through schooling. They possess a lot of
curiosity within them that everything new to them is something important yet they are still
incomplete. Like that of white blank papers, they need for the teachers to be more careful in
teaching them is required. They need to use suitable strategies for them to apply, and make this
experience in a more meaningful and fun way. Aside from that given detailed in the above
information, the teachers of the preschooler in the AKIC-SLS were more on cognitive side of
thinking. Inside the classroom, the most dominated were the teachers who control everything inside
the class, and the one who gives the lesson. Since the kids were yet to learn something important,
they are somewhat very dependable on what the teacher would teach to them. The meta cognitive
part in this level was very low as based on my observation at the said school. However, the positive
motivational processes on this level were high. Preschoolers were new to this kind of idea of going
to school. For almost years they stay at home and always do things with their parents, due to this
changes the teacher in this level were required to motivate their students more in order to cope up
with the changes they were going to enter and can adjust with the peers of classmates they have.

Reflection:
In every stage of learning, a new step up comes with a new learning that leads the learner
to another foundation that builds their future. I assume that in this primary level includes the
elementary grade level 1-3
In regards with the cognitive abilities of the learners, this part of ability is highly
enhanced during their prime level of their years as to develop their knowledge, comprehension
on a certain subject matter given, and apply it to a certain degree to were the lessons is
applicable to. The analysis part starts in this prime level that trained the students analyzing a
certain subject matter that leads them to present their ideas based on their understanding.
Metacognitivie on this level were kind of low. However, the positive motivational process still
exists in this part, since learners need to instill them the excitement and the goods of learning.

Reflection
In this level of learners, they are starting to learn how to analyze thing, make their own
choices and create their own ideas that could help them do the utmost in the task that were
given to them. Cognitive are still highly present in this level for the reason that this would
let learners to learn the basic and be the reason for them to create new ideas. Meta cognitive
is starting to take this stage for the learners. In the AKIC-SLS, they are required to motivate
the students further to achieve their optimum level in learning, and realize their own
potential with their own efforts.

Notes
Reflection:
In the secondary level, the students were almost at their heights of learning and enjoying
most of their youth at school. As a teacher, you can expect that some of the students that one’s
teaches were somehow knows how to find their own answers in a certain inquisitiveness that
pops out inside their mind. They’ve become adventurous and hungry for seeking wider
perspective. In this respect, they ought to fill some information they needed and cognitive is a
part of those requirements. In this regard, the section Pearl of the third year in the AKIC-SLS
were of course already at this stage where teachers were giving them detailed of information
that they needed in pursuing and attaining what they need in life. Most of these students were
very attentive on the day that we had our observation inside their class. As what I’ve mentioned
earlier on, this kids already know something since they already have the abilities to search for
something they are curious about so in return, meta cognitive were highly being used in this
stage of learning. The teachers were also motivating the students through giving positive
feedback when they answers a certain question. An example of this was when this section had
their bio chemistry subject, and teacher required them to answer a certain equations. Some of
these students didn’t have the correct answer and the best thing in this part was that the teacher
gave positive feed backs instead of giving them the negative words that shouldn’t be the
appropriate thing to do.

Reflection:
The class that I have chosen in this part of learning was the class of Ms. Estomo as
mentioned above this paragraph. This lesson of her happened last February 2, 2014 with a time
range of 1:00 to 2:00 in the afternoon. Based from the time, we could consider this as a siesta
time, where most of the students could possibly undergone in the sleepy mode while listening
and how much more if you connect the lesson to history, where most of the lesson where like
story telling. In that afternoon session, Ms. Estomo discusses about the medieval and the
renaissance era that give them some glimpse in pertains to the culture of those days, and part
of this were the attitude of the priest aforetime
The teacher has this confidence which I really admired due to her professional attitude
inside the class. She indeed give the lesson in a very detailed manner, and even set her thesis as
a sample as to give the students a more concrete idea on the subject matter all about. As I
observed, I could consider that the teacher applied the so called Formal Theory of Teaching.
This theory pertains to metaphysical and epistemological propositions. History can be classified
in this kind of propositions in the since that this subject matter is all about studying the fact of
what had happen in the past. Concentrating in this part of knowledge, the students were
obtaining a foundational knowledge that was adopted previously and could possibly be
adopted by the students themselves if they want to
5. F i e l d S t u d y 2 Page 5
Most of the students were attentively listening to her lesson; however, due to the fact
that it was afternoon, some other students were somehow in the sleepy mode. I could suggest
that it would be a good activities if she added a spice in her lesson like that of giving them a
motivational/inspirational quotes, or they could do some ice breaker in order to stimulate their
sleepy mind and focus on the subject on hand again.
ENRICHING LEARNING
Observation/ Narrative Report
In this episode, I’ll be picking the section Pearl of the third year as my subject of interest. When
we got there, it was their subject teacher in Bio-Chemistry who was there conducting a discussion on a
certain formula about chemistry related topic. Everyone inside the class room where concentrating
about this subject matter. Maybe this is because, the teacher made a groups out of this class and they
were given the task to solve a certain chemistry formula. Upon solving the problem, students were
required to discuss the given problems by a representative from their group. On this idea, nobody goes
against this will of the teacher, and they were given 5 minutes to solve, and to think about the answer.
This made the students all in focused in discussing and solving the certain problems applying how they
understand the topic mentioned to them. Their interaction seems not to be like that of what I expect. I
was expecting they were going to formulate a circle by group and discuss among them about the
answer. Their interaction in solving the problem was lesser, since most of them were quite solving the
answer each of their own. I am assuming in this kind of situation that the group already designated one
of their group mates to answer, and explain the assigned task. When the time ups, each group prepared
their selves and adrenaline rush comes. As they answer the question in front of them, they seem to be
quite shy, but got the guts to discuss it within the class. As the teacher were backing up their answer and
asking them a few question on this regard, the reporter seems to give a less answer in one question
without expanding their answer as to be more detailed. While one of them was explaining, some
students were very talkative, other talk about the lesson and the students at the back were discussing
other matters, which their teacher noticed after a minute. Their teacher interaction were very formal
inside the class, some students were freely expressing their feelings and easily conveyed their ideas and
thoughts to their teacher confidently.
The teacher indeed told us that she was very dependent on the lesson plan that were
being made and was being applied of course. It was then unfortunate for us that that time that
we entered in her class was their review of their past lesson in preparation of their
examination. From the way I did observed, there were no other instrumental materials that
were being used on this part of the lesson except using whiteboard and chalk board. She didn’t
use any further IMS in enriching her lesson for her kids.
As I observed this session of class, I did realize how important it is for a teacher to enrich
her Instructional Material as an additional learning for the students. In having a complicated
subject such bio-chem, one need to find an alternative that could let the children learn the
lesson in a manner that they could conveniently do the learning at their own pace. This
probably could be enhancing one’s instructional matter as I’ve mentioned before or this could
be through giving them an additional easier task for them to evaluate more on their learning
6. F i e l d S t u d y 2 Page 6
because not all learners have the same level of learning as others would do. As a teacher to be,
I indeed realize how important to match your objective to the assessment that will be given to
you student that is written in the lesson plan.
Below this is the lesson plan for that specific subject of Ms. Hanefah Sahraman

ASSISTING A TEACHER
I did ask Mam Namraida Uy, the adviser of the third year section pearl about a student who
needs a certain assistance on a certain skills. She then indeed recommended me a certain students of
her who wanted a help in regarding with her self confidence, and enchance her leadership skills. Though
I am not the typical leader type of a student when I was young but I did my best to tell what I’ve learned
and gather few details that could help the student in boosting ones’ confidence. The student name was
Dimatingcal, Lomayna A. One fine day, I did meet with this student. I did have some conversation with
her because getting along well with each other is the important factor in order to achieve a greater good
lesson between a teacher and a learner. Ms. Lomayna talked about leadership, and all kinds of program
8. F i e l d S t u d y 2 Page 8
in school that were related in those students who have the chance to go outside the countries as an
exchange student. A part of this, she mentioned about a certain opportunity that works in this
institution and this is in relation with the Leadership Institute. Those students who where under this
were given a 10% discount out of their tuition fee. There were certain phases that needs to call for in
order to ahieved this opportunity by a student to do so. As the student continues, she did mentioned
that she wanted to have that kind of opportunity but she is having hard time boosting her confidence.
After letting her talk about many things, I did share what I did know about this part.
One thing I’ve mentioned to her is that keep dreaming on. Achieving something will come to you
if you do the hard work. I did tell her about my personal issue about this confident part and relate it with
what they have right now which until right now is something I couldn’t settle yet. After this meeting, we
did held our another meeting, and their I handed something to her. I gave her a certain advice that I did
get from the book of dale carnage on “how to when people”. In this book contains an advices that could
help her. I did summarize this book and get the specific detailed on this part. After a few discussion that
take us for almost One hour, I gave her a task that she will not forget. I did ask her some question that
could back up her learning on our topics and other personal issues. From the evaluation time, she did
answered me with right answers. Aside from this task, I pick a certain speech that she will read in front
of me. She then delivered the speech and after a minute of reading, I did admired how she gone through
reading every line with confidence. Based on my observation, she has a lot of improvement and with a
right teaching and advice she could go further confident enough.
