Introduction
Field Study 1 is the first in a series of six sequential studies in the Bachelor of
Elementary Education and the Bachelor of Secondary Education Programs (BEED and
BSED) offered by the Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs). Field Study 1 is linked with
a professional education subject. It is the prerogative of the TEI to match with an
appropriate subject such as Child and Adolescent Development, Principles of Teaching,
or Facilitating Learning.
The focus of Filed Study 1 is observation of the learners, school structure and the
community. Since this is the first time the student teachers have been exposed to the
school environment, they are expected to take note of the school and classroom
facilities, and the organizational set-up of the school. The PSTs shall observe the
behaviour of the learners in the actual learning environment. Based on their
observations of learners, PSTs shall develop their understanding on feasible
approaches to facilitate learning considering the various phases of growth and
development.
To assist during transition, the students will be paired with a “buddy”. Included in
FS 1 is the enhancement of the students’ communication skills with his/her buddy since
they are expected to be adequate in the language they will be using during their hands-
on teaching in the remaining field studies.

August 3, 2014 marks the day of our observation in Davao City National
High School – Sunday class. Our target on this activity is to gain competence in
determining teaching approaches and techniques considering the individual
differences of the learners. The community or neighbourhood where the school is
found is peaceful, clean and safe. It is located near the road. The area of the
school is wide enough. Good management and discipline of the community is
present. Although the school is near the road side but it is safe hence the school
is surrounded by fence with a gate so that the students cannot easily escape
from school. The school campus has a cool ambiance. It is surrounded by many
trees. The school is well-fenced. The foundation of the buildings is good because
it is well-planned and built. It has an oval for sports activity. The classrooms,
offices, and buildings are conducive for student learning. It develops students’
social interactions. Conducive physical learning Environment is safe, clean, and
orderly. The school is found in place where the students can make their projects
like computer shops. My impression on the offices was good. I want in this school
environment because the facilities, the classrooms and the offices are conducive
for the student learning. The school is located at the town. Beautification and
cleanliness were undertaken of this school by tree planting and proper waste
disposal.

Reflective Journal No. 2
• I have learned that number of students in the classroom affects the situations in
the classroom. According to the DepEd order no. 17, s. 2012, or the guidelines on the
implementation of the regular school building program (RSBP), the standards of the
school building design should adopt the 7m x 9m dimension, still it is not enough to
cater 50 students as what Section A has. Sometimes, students were too noisy in
answering the teacher’s questions especially when they are interested and motivated in
the topic. Good thing that this section was oriented to behave well in class that when
Mrs. Curato asks them to keep quiet, immediately they follow. I also learn that class is
composed of unique individuals. Students have different attitudes inside the classroom.
During my observation, I have witness how students behave in class. Some are busy
fixing their selves, some were playing and others are busy texting. But despite of these
attitudes, students of Section A are serious when it comes to group activity.
• I was surprised that the students were able to maintain their eagerness and
energy in participating in the lesson despite of their situation. Their classroom was
small. They don’t mind their uneasy feeling. Maybe it is because their teacher doesn’t
mind it too.
• I was pleased that their teacher has a wonderful and effective way in dealing
with her students. She treated her students as her friends. With my CT’s style, students
are not hesitant to participate in the class. They feel comfortable to talk and to answer
Republic of the PhilippinesUNIVERSITY OF SOUTHEASTERN PHILIPPINES
COLLEGE OF EDUCATIONIñigo St., Obrero, Davao City, 8000
her questions. I believe that because of my CT’s treatment to her students, Grade7
Section A are excited in Math Subject and it is the reason of the smile in their faces.
• I want to know the difference of the Sunday classes and the regular class in
terms of academic achievements. I am curious if they have the same learning in the
regular class.
• The class observations can be of help to me as a future teacher because I
got to know and experience the real classroom setting. I got to observe students to their
learning and making me realize what their needs are, in terms of providing a good
classroom environment and how to address their different style of learning. As a future
teacher, I will be able to realize what my students needs in terms of their learning
process. Through this experience I have realized that the teacher plays the important
rule in learning process of the students

Reflective Journal No. 3
I was assigned to a Grade 7 Math class under Mrs. Virginia Curato.
Together with my buddy Kharine C. Lumahang, we conducted an observation
started last August 3, 2014.
With regards on how we communicate to each other and our skills in
communicating to each other, we don’t have any trouble encountered for both of
us show willingness and interest to share our observations.
What are common?
My buddy and I both shows positive attitude in sharing our observations.
We both listen to each other. We both open topic every time we can observe
something and most of all we both respect each other observations.
What are different?
We had different way of expressing ideas. Of course every individual has
its own way of sharing our thoughts. I am more vocal and confident in expressing
what I want to say. I am also fun of using non-verbal cues in opening topic and
responding to her. But in spite of these differences, we were able to make our
conversation fruitful.
What will you do to improve your interpersonal communication skill?
Republic of the PhilippinesUNIVERSITY OF SOUTHEASTERN PHILIPPINES
COLLEGE OF EDUCATIONIñigo St., Obrero, Davao City, 8000
In order for me improve my interpersonal communication skill, the best
thing that I will do is to practice myself in speaking. And if given a chance, using
the English Language in speaking with my buddy then I’ll take it. In improving
this, I must also boost my self confidence and lessen my anxiety

My experiences in FS 1 will help me a lot to become better in my studies. The learning I
had gathered from my Cooperating teacher, Mrs. Virginia Cuarato and from my buddy Kharine
C. Lumahang and Higher FS students who were under with my CT will be always in my mind.
As a pre-service teacher, FS 1 shows me the real classroom situation. It exposes me to
what students really are. Their unique behavior and how they behave in class is an eye opener
to me. I was afraid at first but my experiences makes me more determined to pursue my dream
to become an Educator.
This experience I had for sure will be of big help in the future when I am already in the
field. It will be easy for me to adjust with the behavior of the students for I had witness once
class. It will make me an effective teacher. In teaching, the role of the teacher is not only to talk,
teach, record grades and submit it to the authority. The main purpose of teaching is focused on
the learners. They are the center of instructions that is why we must know their nature and how
they act in school.
When I had witness what kind of students my CT has, I asked myself this question “mag
teacher pa ko?”. But when I saw Mrs. Curato’s courage and determination to teach her students
it made me more proud to be enrolled in this program (TCPNEP). I was encouraged to be
pursuant in my dream. I know it would not be easy for me to become a teacher, but I know that
my learning’s I have in my FS 1 and the things that I am going to learn in the next FS will be
enough for me to be ready as teacher.
I made my choice. I enrolled in this program. The experience I had will serve as my
inspiration and not the reason to quit of the profession I choose.

Personal Reflection on the Portfolio
In teaching, the role of a teacher is not only to talk, teach, record grades and
submit it to the authority. The main purpose of teaching is focused on the learners. They
are the center of our instructions that is why we must know their nature and how they
act in school.
There are learners who are very active and seemed restless. Some are just quiet
and timid. Some have unpolished talents and some have well-exposed skills. As a
future teacher, I realized that I should know each of my students. I should know their
nature. I should impose some questions like why are they acting that way? Are their
nature suits my teaching? Despite their individual differences, could they be interested
on how I will manage my instruction? Does my instruction fit my learners? Do the smart
ones be reinforced with this method? Could the sloe learners understand well if I will
make this instruction? Is the environment conducive to learning? All of these must be
answered by the teacher
However, having knowledge about the Cognitive Learning Theory of Piaget and
others, we could manage the learner’s ability to think. We could estimate our
instructions if it suits their level of thinking. Being knowledgeable about learners’
behavior as what Pavlov, Skinner and Thorndike have proposed, it would be easier for
us to manage their behavior in some relative situations. Knowing how Bandura
explained his Social Learning Theory, we could facilitate them by giving examples of
behavior you want them to do. Furthermore, equipping ourselves on the learning
Republic of the PhilippinesUNIVERSITY OF SOUTHEASTERN PHILIPPINES
COLLEGE OF EDUCATIONIñigo St., Obrero, Davao City, 8000
theories proposed by Ausubel, Lewin and Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence, we can make
use of varied instructions for the diverse thinking of our learners
Indeed as a teacher, I should be very much aware of the needs and behaviors of
our learners in order for me to plan and make my instruction effective I should be
knowledgeable enough on their behavior so that I could encourage them and so that I
could catch their field of interest. I believe that if they find learning interesting, it would
continue throughout their lives.
