observation report on the provided surface.
An Observation Guide for Classroom Management
1. Observe the class at least twice. Focus on how the teacher manages the
classroom by using supportive measures in the following areas:
a. Organizational plan. Is the classroom structured or flexible? Is
instruction carried individually, by group? Or both?
b. Schedule. How are activities scheduled? Is time allotted properly for
each activity? What activities are planned as fillers?
c. Record Keeping. How is attendance monitored? Does the teacher have
record book? Do the students have individual portfolio to file actual
records of scored tests, assignments, artwork, etc.
d. Physical Environment. How is cleanliness maintained? Is there proper
ventilation? Lighting? Is the noise level appropriate? How are bulletin
boards and displays arranged? How is seating arranged? Is the seating
arrangement suited to learners? Do the classroom furniture match the
size of the students?

Your Analysis
In what area of classroom management was the teacher most effective? Which of the
supportive measures were effective? Why?
In Discipline area, that the teacher varies their mood so that the student did not
read their teachers attitude, but in the teaching-learning process, the teacher always have
fun. In this strategy, the teacher can caught the attention of the students to focus on the
subject matter.
In what area of classroom management was the teacher least effective? Which of the
supportive measures were not effective? Why?
In record keeping of the individual attendance. The teacher is just asks for the
number of the student presents and absents not for every individual attendance that I
observed. The attendance of the students is very significant to know, because every lesson
is very important and every student must follow the everyday lessons.
Your Reflections
1. Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a well-managed
classroom?
A teacher who can establish a well-managed classroom is very active in the
classroom, approachable and analytic observer. These three main characters I think is the
best that can establish a well-managed classroom.
2. What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an effective
classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can help you?
A being approachable for the students so that they can open to their problems
regarding in the schools or the subject matter, being approachable can manage a
classroom by focusing on your rules and regulations inside the classroom.
3. What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you from becoming
an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome these characteristics?
Being strict, I cant be an anger teacher so that they can follow you in your
instructions. But to overcome this I must be practice it and first impressions last, so I will
be strict at first.

Episode 3
Resource Teacher: Mr. Dioscorro Lumogdang III & Ms. Ruby Alcala
Cooperating School: Bagbaguin National High School
Your Target
At the end of this episode, you will gain competence in identifying possible
linkages between the school and the community, particularly those that will help attain
circular goals.
Your Map
The teacher never lies in isolation. For you to be an effective teacher in the future
it is vital to forge genuine win-win relationship between the school and the community.
To reach your target, do the following tasks:
Step 1: Tour the community around your cooperating school
Step 2: Gather information about the issues/concerns/problems of the community
that affect the school and where the teacher and the students can help. Also,
gather information about the resources of the community.
Step 3: Analyze the possible linkages that the school and the community can
have.
Step 4: Reflect on the vital role of the teacher as a member of the community.
Community Resources
The school is somehow participated in the community program
like drills and some community disaster preparedness.
Your Analysis
Suggest new what ways by which the school can creatively use the resources of the
community.
As a teacher I will maximize the resources of the community for the students so
that sometimes they can apply their learnings outside the school, and let my students find
their ways just to learn using the resources in the community.
How can the school address the issues/concerns and problems of the community?
By telling the company head of the factories surrounded in the school that the air
coming from the factories can harm the students. So that the factories find their way how
to avoid that problem.
What possible linkages can the community and the school have?
In helping each other for the learnings of the students so that they can produce a
productive and responsible citizen of Bagbaguin Valenzuela. They help each other build
the next citizen and leaders of the community.
Your Reflections
1. How did you feel while you were going around the community? What things
did you learn that you might have taken for granted before?
I feel some regret for the school that is somehow near in the squatters area, but I
know that the school can transform those children living in the squatter area and studying
in Bagbaguin National High School.
2. As a future teacher, what do you think will be your role in the community?
My role in the community soon as a teacher is to be a children transformer not
only on what the subject matter I taught but also in their attitude inside and outside the
school. I can be a leader of those children and I will lead them through their dreams that
soon can be a leader of our and their community.
3. How you will encourage more community participation among teachers and
students?
I will encourage the community to participate in school-community activities in
the way that I will make them realize the importance of the activities in the progression of
every students and how it can help the community.
