It's a Final Countdown

It's a final countdown! it was my last day of observation to fulfill the the required 17 hours of observation. The school had its preparation for coronation rites of Lakan - Lakambini 2010. Everybody was busy. The teachers had their own task to do. There were assigned committees to meet the purpose of the activity.
I, together with my group mates were having the picture taking of each classroom's bulletin boards, as one of the activities in FS3 requires. We also took pictures to some students having their rehearsal, under the stewardship of some teachers.
The group also helped the committee in physical arrangement. We initiated to decorate the stage and in table skirting. After an hour of hard work and sweat drops we accomplished the task. And we could say that it was a job well done. The ambiance of the place, from a typical school/learning environment turned into Hawaiian concept.

The PHIL-IRI

February 5, 2010, the second day of my observation. They were making a giant snake and ladder board when I arrived. Some pupils who finished their giant snake and ladder board were playing it and I was amused in watching them. In a minute, I found myself happy playing with them.
After playing with them, my cooperating teacher asked for my assistance in PHIL - IRI, it is an activity which the teacher will ask the students to read a particular story. And after reading, there will be a guide question that will check up the comprehension and retention of the child.
Out of the said reading - comprehension activity. I found out that there were students who had poor retention, and some of them just guessed the answers. This activity aroused my interest and desire to be fully equipped of knowledge and wisdom that I might harvest and gain during my training.

The Final Judgment

It was 28h of January, 2010, the day of final judgment, the day which senior students were waited for. it was the end of their in their respective school yet the beginning of the new chapters of their journey begins. This day, the interns in Pansol Elementary School held their final demonstration. The observers of this school were divided into groups who had their observation in each interns.
The lady here observed the final demonstration of Ms. Dharalyn Amolar, fourth year, PNU student. Ms. Amolar discussed, "The Solar System as it Revolve Around the Sun as they Follows its Own Orbits". She used a diagram of Solar System that gave compliment to the learning of the students. During the observation, the lady visualized the possible actual setting in the classroom, and she felt excited yet little frighten.
The discussion was done, everything went fine though the teacher did not bag the benchmark of PNU - excellence yet what the lady could say here, it was a nice experienced to have Ms. Amolar as the subject of her observation.
