Give your insights about your observations.
When we started our first actual observation in accordance to our FS 1
subject. I was so excited on that day that I came to school very early. Each one of
us were assigned to a certain classroom and observed everything that is related to
the pupils’ learning process. Our teacher told us to fill in everything that correspond
to our target and goal. The target is to be competent in determining a school
environment that provides, social, psychological and physical environment
supportive of learning. I strolled around the campus together with my classmates
and jotted down the observation in my notebook. I was impressed by the different
offices and rooms since it is my alma mater. I could say that the school has a lot of
improvement as the years goes by. I observed everything that the school have. Most
of the rooms are already using projectors and computers during their classes.
Lastly, I tried my very best to finish my field study in answering and having
photo documentations in order to pass it on the deadline which our instructor told
us.
Conclusion
I conclude that in visiting a school and observe the facilities in the learning
areas within the campus, I learned many things and I realized that every learner
need a learning environment and facilities that would help in processing effectively
their knowledge and skills taught by their teachers and it is very important that all
the pupils’ needs different facilities for their own learning for them to gain their
own knowledge.
As I observed the school environment, I can say that it is conducive to
learning because it is quiet. The atmosphere and plants are visible to give fresh air,
offices and halls are well-organized and clean, and very attractive to us. The office
and the classroom is well-ventilated and has proper lighting. It is properly
decorated and the furniture are properly arranged. And they have also different
facilities which help the pupils learning.
Through photo documentation it help to finish these field study which it help
me a lot of their purpose of each offices and areas. In identifying their uses and
learning.

Teaching is both a vocation and a mission. Responding to God’s call is not a
simple task and gets even harder when you will do the mission of being the catalyst
for change. Yet, touching one’s life is priceless and molding them into the best of
what can be is the hardest job but rewarding.
Your reflections
1. Can you consider the school environment you just observed conducive to learning? Why?
Yes, the school environment I had observed is conducive to learning because
the learning environment is the place where teaching and learning takes place in
the most effective and productive manner. The school accessibility is well-ventilated,
comfortable to the student to study well. It is appropriate to the student to learn
more and explore their young minds for interaction and get more stock knowledge
that can be used in their future learning.
2. What are the characteristics of a classroom that is conducive to learning?
The characteristics of a classroom that is conducive to learning are; the rooms
are clean, well-lighted and ventilated, chairs are good and properly arranged,
students are cooperating with each other as well as the teachers for they set a good
example and have to respect each every students and teacher can motivate students
or pupils to learn. Having all the facilities that help students in the learning process.
It would also have an atmosphere that is conducive to learning and intellectual
growth.

Activity form (Write your observations here)
As what I observed, the preschool pupils, preschooler or the children I n that
stage they’re likes are walking, running and they always want to move around the
room. They love to write, draw and put every color and they are still dependent on
their parents or teachers.

In terms of social children at this stage, children always follow what the
teacher says and asks. They are still not too mature of the things surround them.
Most of the time they like playing with their peers.
In terms of their emotions the moods of this learner shifts most of the time,
some would fight with each other and some would easily cry. And as usual this kind
of learner some are always noisy.
In terms of cognition they can express what they think by not in a proper
way because their communication skill is still limited. At this stage, they cannot
comprehend easily.
Activity form (Write your observations here)
As what I observed in the elementary pupils children in terms of physical they
carry themselves in a different way compare to the preschooler. They move actively,
walk there and here, going in and out of the room. They can do physical activities
by themselves but they are still emotionally dependent to their parents or teachers.
In terms of social, they interact to their teachers with respect like their
parents. Some of them are naughty some pupils love when his or her classmates
cries and always fight back with. They are also interested in playing.
In terms of emotions the temper of these learners explodes easily. They are
little bit conscious of themselves. Conflict among them exist.
In terms of cognitions, they are still on the stage of developing the two
languages, the Filipino and English. Most of these learners are good in memorization
and fond of explaining.

Identify the most significant characteristics of the child that you have observed and give
them their implications for the learners.
Your Reflections
1. Reflect on your experiences when you were of their age. Discuss any similarities or differences
of such experience with those you observed.
When observing the learners, I recall my childhood years like them, I am also
naughty that time. I love to play all the time and I'm fond of roaming around our
classroom. My experience that was enjoyable like the learners do right now.
2. Which theory of development can help you explain your observations?
Piaget’s theory of cognitive development because this theory explains that an
individual has its own level of learning according to their age and this will guide as
to become a better person. Piaget’s theory use their minds or brains in order for us
to think critically.
CHARACTERISTICS IMPLICATIONS FOR THE TEACHER
The Preschoolers always
want to play.
Therefore, the teacher should not only focus on
teaching academically but also he/she must give time for
playing.
Talkative The teacher should enforce classroom rules discipline,
because rules are an important part of any classroom. And the
teacher must know on how to manage the pupils and having
also patience to their pupils.
Inattention The teacher should always determine their pupils
characteristics of its individual and know how to control their
pupils and discipline it.

Your Analysis
What is the basis of the classroom organization and routine?
The basis of the classroom organization and routines, is effective classroom
teacher’s spend more time in the first few days of the year teaching classroom
routines and procedure are the key to a well-managed, organized classroom. Pupils
learn better when a classroom is organized and they have a consistent routine. They
are much more prone to have good behavior, pay attention and do their work
under those conditions. In addition, even those students who are prone to pay
attention and do their work if the lessons are interesting and pertinent to their lives
in addition to having a routine and organization classroom, which helps to bring out
the best in pupils.
Cite certain theory that can support your answer. Share your insights with your classmates
during the class.
Piaget’s theory can support my answer because many children at certain
stages are capable of only certain types of intellectual endeavors, acquire knowledge
by interacting with the world, active participants in their own learning. This theory
focus on the process of children’s thinking just products.
Your Reflections
1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade/year level do you see
yourself in? What routines and procedures would you consider for this level? Why?
As I imagine myself in future, someday if I were to become a teacher, I will
prefer to teach the grade 6 pupils because at this stage they are more mature than
in lower grades. They are manageable though they are independent, they can work
on their own without being told by the teacher. I would impose daily routine like
cleaning inside and outside such as sweeping the floor, sweeping the pathway,
cleaning the CR before and after the class and to proceed to prayer, checking the
attendance and also the rules and regulation to be followed strictly so that there
would be as smooth flow of teaching learning process.

2. Should learners be involved in making the class rules? Why?
No, the pupils should not be involved in making the class rules because
classroom rules is already implemented by the teacher in the first day of the class.
The pupils just have to follow and obey the rules and regulations of the class

they share their ideas and make the flow goes. The learners and teachers make the
learning better by the interactions inside the classroom.
2. Is there anything you would like to improve in the classroom interaction? How will you do it?
Yes, by allowing the passive learners to participate in class, also. I would use
variety of instructional materials that would cater the needs of each learner despite
their difficulties.
3. How will you encourage all learners regardless of religious, ethnic or racial background
interact and participate in class activities?
I will encourage them to mingle with each other with different belief so that
they can share their differences and allowing acceptance with each other.

Mrs. Cerila M. Dimol Grade II Regular Time: 10:00-11:00
As I have observed in the class of Mrs. Cirila M. Dimol, she is discussing
Araling Panlipunan about “Mga Klase nga Panahon nga Nasinate sa Komunidad”. I
observed that diversity is present in the classroom. There are really different in the
pupils in terms of their cultural background, on how they interact their cognitive
abilities.
During the discussion, I noticed the teacher discusses her lesson very well in
order for the pupils to learn the lesson. The teacher use different instructional
activities such as lecture, the teacher discusses very well, she is also giving a quiz in
order if they really understand their lesson, and oral questioning also was given to
them the teachers ask question to the pupils during their classroom to assess their
understanding.
As I observed the class’ individual differences among learners is shown in them,
here are learners who are really attentive during the discussions and there are also
others who just listens to the discussion but the attention span is too short and
there are others who are really fond of making noise during the discussion.
As I observed the teacher treat her pupils fairly, respect their individuality,
social background and most especially their individual differences in abilities. The
Quiz The teacher conducts a quiz in order if they really
understand the discussion that was given by the
teacher.
Strategic knowledge is shown. The pupils provide
answers to the given questions.

teacher makes sure to avoid comparing to each other and never attempt from
putting them down.
As a future teacher, this activity is not only intended for me to have a good
observation but rather to furnish me to become a competent educator.
As I observed the different class the teacher discussed their lesson but it
always depends on the subject matter. The teaching strategies vary from time to
time. The teacher uses differentiated learning activities according to their year level
so that slow learners will participate and also the high achieving learners will not
get weary on doing activities which they think is very easy for them.
As I observed, the pupils all of them are listening to the teacher’s discussion,
the behavior of high achieving learner is active and will participate during discussion
or even in group works, while slow learners they tried their very best to understand
their lesson very well.
The type of knowledge being used in these classroom is conceptual, the ability
of the pupils to think creatively about, analyze and understand complicated abstract
ideas and they also think imaginary ideas.
If I am given a chance to teach in class, I observed and given the same context,
I used conceptual knowledge because in this knowledge the pupils have their freedom
to think imaginary ideas and think with mental concepts. I would emphasize and do
it by applying different methods, the pupils which will be effective to fit the
capabilities of the pupils and also the pupils will respond productively, cooperate and
participate in class.

Engage your reflective thinking and consider answering the following questions.
1. Consider the context of the class you have observed, such as its subject matter/ lesson,
grade/year level, and the students, are the types and qualities of knowledge emphasized in the
instructional materials.
2. If given the chance to teach in the class you observed and given the same contexts, what types
and qualities of knowledge would you wish to emphasize and how will you do it?
Write and Share. Prepare a written report of your FS experience.
As an aspiring teacher, I'm so glad and thankful that I was given the
opportunity to observe or visit in Josefina, Central Elementary School. Our resource
teacher, Mr. Albert Onto, instructed us to observe in the different room Preschool-
Grade- 6 pupils.
We observed how the teacher manage her classroom and handle the pupils
with their different abilities and her way of strategies and the method they use in
teaching to the pupils.
We had an opportunity to document picture in the surroundings and
environment such as the school facilities like the library, school canteen, and
computer laboratory. And we also interviewed pupils and tell them our purpose of
having an interview to them.
We tried our very best to finish our field study but due to some conflicting
and hectic schedule, we weren’t able to do so.
We have learned many things their techniques, strategies and method in
teaching the pupils how they interact to each other; teacher-pupils and pupils to
pupils.
And it helps us, their knowledge of teaching for our near future the method
and techniques they use.
41. F S 1 T h e L e a r n e r s D e v e l o p m e n t a n d

Page 41
The type of knowledge being used is conceptual because during my
observation in these classrooms, the teacher in class in handling her pupils whether
high or low achiever is very fair. She addresses the class as a whole and not by
making her pupils think that there is a huge barrier among those pupils who
performed well than those who are not.
Conceptual knowledge is emphasized in these classrooms. Every one of the
pupils have their freedom to think with mental concepts; having to do with the
mind and the imaginary ideas, the ability of the pupils to think creatively about,
analyze and understand complicated abstract ideas.
Your Analysis
Write a summary of your answers to the two analysis questions of this FS activity.
The types and qualities of knowledge was emphasized in the instructional
activities. The teachers teach their pupils very well and they use different techniques
methods and strategies in order for the pupils to understand their lesson.
Your Reflections
Complete the lead statement.
I used to think that knowledge is very important and it is an essential to acquire
especially to the teachers because teachers are the one who delivers the mastery of
knowledge of the subject. And it will also help the teachers to have different
strategies, method and approaches because without the knowledge of education like
child and adolescent development, facilitating human development and etc. teachers
cannot make the best of the learning teaching.

Page 42
After doing this observation, in now think that knowledge is important as I’ve expected. It is
very well known for the teachers to know the varied knowledge in education,
especially about the learners. But the knowledge is not enough, the teacher should
know about the learners, their interest, types of learning and she tries to find the
best way to guide and help the learners to maximize their potential learning.
From the experience, I feel that learning is not limited from the teachers’ knowledge
because the teachers share their knowledge to the pupils in order for them to learn
and the pupils can gain also knowledge from them.
If only I have a chance, I want to observe, I want to observe or more seminars
especially about teaching personality of the pupils, quality of the teachers, so that I
can broaden my knowledge of education.

Your Analysis
Share your analysis in your class with the guidance of your FS teacher. Anchor your
analysis on the relationship of home environment with the learners’ academic performance.
Identify specific home environment that you consider to have a greater influence on the child’s
academic performance. Discuss this in your class. You may formulate your own based on the
significant observation you made.
As a future teacher, how can you establish good relationship with the parents?
As a future teacher to be, I will build a good working relationship to the parents, their
collaboration would be a great help in regards to home-school link. I will make sure that they
will do work well with the parents through consulting the behavior of the child in their house. I
can help them through reporting the child’s progress and performance in school.
A way I can establish home-school collaboration with parents is by being acquaintance
to build rapport and gain information from them. In order to have a good working relationship
with the parents, I need to think like one, to genuinely sendoff caring and concerned messages
when speaking about their child and to create a welcoming environment to their guardians,
positive hones and clear communication is suggested as the foundation to build personalized
relationships with parents where each of us understands and respects each other perspective.
Together, the parents and I can discuss expectations for their child’s achievements and our
respective roles in helping the child future, I can develop programs to promote effective home-
school partnerships that support positive academic behavioral and social competencies for all
pupils in school. I’ll look to be engaged in efforts to increase mutual respect, understanding,
caring and flexibility among families and the school community.
