“Coming Soon”

I. My Accomplishment

It is really difficult to capture the heart of my students here in private school unlike my students in public school. I don’t know how to make their heart move. This was my problem at first but now there’s a change because every time we see them around the school campus during break time, some of them were already greeting us, they say the words “hello ma’am”. This word that comes from them inspires us. At least somehow, they still give a little of their attention to us. I am happy that they care for us and they see us by saying the two words Although, they do not give their full attention to us, still I am thankful for having their simple greeting to us. This is my accomplishment for this week because this is one way to prove that somehow my strategy of getting their attention works.

II. My Significant Experience

My CT was a couch for the whole week, so she needs a substitute teacher. And so, it was difficult for us to be in charge of the 6 sections that she handles. Although, we have the substitute teacher who is entering each classroom, still there are some times that we don’t have a substitute teacher; therefore we need to manage the class.

There was this time when a substitute teacher entered our classroom she sits at the back and I was also there observing my co-student teacher who is in charge to talk for the class. Then suddenly, the substitute teacher caught the attention of a female student. She was mad and angry at the student because of her behaviour. The substitute teacher was really mad at that time saying these words: “damn you” and “shame on you”. I know that the female student was very ashamed for the incident but I cannot also blame the teacher because she was just trying to give discipline to the student who is not behaving well because she keeps on making noise and chatting with her seatmates that made the teacher mad at her. To cut the students short me, a student teacher who witnessed this incident made me think of what I am going to do in my future career every time I encounter students who misbehave. Honestly, I will not do the same thing, saying all the bad words to my students. This was a significant experience to me because, in my own perspective a teacher must model good image to his students without saying these bad words.

III. My Insights

From my significant experience that I had for this week, I am really thinking of the bad words that the students receive from the substitute teacher. Although, the purpose of

The teacher is to give discipline to the student, still my mind says “it was wrong” to say those words. Those words must not be heard by the 50 students of the class. Its okay to get angry with the students but saying these bad words will not permit for being a good model to our students. Anyway, this was just my own point of view. Others will already be the one who will judge if it is right or wrong.

IV. Problems

The day of the “finals” is already approaching, so we have lists of our requirements to be done as soon as possible and honestly I did not yet finished my FS. I am still t fill out the episode 3. Other requirements that we must have to accomplish are our reporting to the other subject. But anyway, this is life, I just need to be alert and be patience in accomplishing these things.

V. Solutions

Be alert and be patience all the time is a pre-requisite in having these words: “work is done”. I need to have thing in a step by step process so that at the end of the semester I will be easily accomplishing all of these requirements.

VI. My Goal for Next Week

Being positive all the time will help me to achieve what I want and having this phrase “Be a blessing” will give me enough courage to finish all the things that I must have to finish for next week.
