Day 5- FIELD STUDY

 September 11, 2025





Today’s field study experience at Lahug Elementary School was both engaging and insightful. The day’s focus was on the letter Y and the numbers 1 to 4.

The morning class began with Teacher Jovelyn’s lively discussion about the sound of the letter Y. She introduced the children to words that start with or contain the letter Y, such as YOYO, YAYE, YAYI, YAYU. The use of repetitive words helped the learners familiarize themselves with the sound and recognize patterns. The children were also given an assignment to write the letter Y, and I was given the opportunity to check their work. While I was checking, Teacher Jovelyn guided the class in reading more words with the letter Y, which kept the lesson interactive and fun.

After finishing the letter activity, Teacher Jovelyn transitioned to a lesson on numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. To reinforce the concept, she prepared a game that immediately caught the children’s excitement. The students were divided into boys and girls, and each team had to race to the board. Their task was to build a tower using four blocks. Once the tower was successfully balanced, the student needed to write the number 4 and the word “four” on the board. The first to complete the challenge correctly earned a star. The children were very enthusiastic, and the activity not only helped them learn the numbers but also encouraged teamwork, coordination, and a healthy sense of competition.

In the afternoon, the same lesson and activities were conducted with the next set of students. The energy remained high, and it was clear that the playful, hands-on approach was effective in reinforcing the day’s lessons.

Overall, this day highlighted the importance of blending structured teaching with interactive games to sustain young learners’ interest and ensure meaningful learning experiences.

DAY 25- FIELD STUDY 1

  A Day of Learning and Celebration: Preparing for the Christmas Party This day brought a welcomed change of pace a more relaxed and festive atmosphere as we began preparing for the upcoming Christmas party for the students. The morning started with the familiar routine of recalling previous lessons, ensuring that despite the excitement building around the celebration, the students remained grounded in their academic work. This balance between maintaining educational continuity and acknowledging the special occasions that bring joy to children's lives demonstrated an important aspect of teaching: the ability to honor both learning objectives and the moments that make childhood memorable. The recall session went smoothly, and I could sense the students' anticipation for the festivities to come, yet they remained engaged and participatory in reviewing what they had learned. After the morning class concluded, I experienced one of those spontaneous, heartwarming moments that make...

SEPTEMBER 4, 2025  Today’s field study at Lahug Elementary School was a little different because only 12 students were present in the morning class, which ran from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM . Even with a smaller class size, the students showed eagerness to participate and learn. We started the day with another practice for the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts . The children were lively and cooperative, showing that they truly enjoy the scouting activities. It was a good way to channel their energy before settling into the classroom lesson. For the academic part of the day, the teacher began with a recall of the previous lesson . Since some students couldn’t remember what was discussed about the letter T and the different modes of transportation , this review helped refresh their memory. Once again, we talked about: 🚗 Land Transportation: bus, truck, car, motorbike, bicycle ⛵ Water Transportation: ship, sailboat, cruise ship, submarine, small boat, canoe ✈️ Air Transportation...

Day 17- FIELD STUDY 1

  Lahug Elementary School | November 28, 2025 Today was different from our usual classroom work because there were no regular classes. Instead, we were asked to report to Lahug Elementary School to attend a seminar organized for the teachers. Even though it was meant for them, we were given the chance to sit in and observe, which felt like a valuable opportunity. The seminar gave me a better idea of what teachers deal with beyond classroom routines. I watched how they exchanged ideas, shared challenges, and discussed new approaches to improve their teaching. It was interesting to see them in a professional learning setting rather than in front of their students. It reminded me that teaching involves constant growth and collaboration, not just delivering lessons. Being included in the event helped me appreciate the bigger picture of the profession I’m preparing for. It showed me that learning doesn’t stop once you become a teacher. I left the seminar feeling inspired and more awar...
