1 EPISODE
The School Environment

FS 1 1
SPARK Your Interest
This Episode 1 provides an opportunity for students to examine and reflect on a
school environment that promotes learning and development.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome


 At the end of this Episode, I must be able to determine the characteristics of a school
environment that is safe, secure, and is supportive of learning (PPST 2.1.1.).

REVISIT the Learning Essentials


1. A physical environment conducive for learning is one that has consistent practices that:
⚫ keep the school safe, clean, orderly and free from distraction;
⚫ maintain facilities that provide challenging activities; and
⚫ address the physical, social and psychological needs of the students.

2. Display boards can be powerful in communicating information about the learning


environment. They help in building and establishing the school culture. These boards
become one way for everyone to learn about the vision-mission, goals, and values that the
school upholds.

3. As a basic part of the school's visual environment, display boards have four general
purposes:
 Decorative- They offer visual stimulation and appeal to aesthetics. They set the
social and psychological atmosphere of the school. .
 Motivational- They encourage students to perform better and have greater
confidence.
An example would be the display of students' outputs that show that each output is
recognized and valued. The bulletin boards help celebrate the learners' growth and
progress.
 Informational- They are used as a strategy to readily disseminate information.
 Instructional They move students to respond and participate through interactive
displays. They get students to think about and communicate their learning

4. The set of criteria for evaluating bulletin board displays includes effective
communication, attractiveness, balance, unity, interactivity, legibility, correctness, and
durability.

Learner Diversity:

FS 1 2 Developmental
Characteristics, Needs and
Interests
SPARK Your Interest

Episode 2 provides me with an opportunity to observe learners of different ages and


grade levels. It highlights the differences in their characteristics and needs. As a future
teacher, it is important for me to determine my learners' characteristics and needs so that I
will be able to plan and implement learning activities and assessment that are all
developmentally appropriate.

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

At the end of this Episode, I must be able to describe the characteristics, needs and
interests of learners from different developmental levels. (3.1.1).

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

Here are major principles of development relevant to this Episode:

1. Development is relatively orderly. Development follows directional patterns such as,


from the head to the toe (cephalocaudal), and from the center of the body then outwards
(proximodistal)

2. Development takes place gradually.

3. All domains of development and learning physical, social and emotional, and
cognitive- are important, and they are closely interrelated. (NAEYC, 2009)

4. Development proceeds toward greater complexity, self-regulation, symbolic or


representational capabilities. (NAEYC, 2009)

Step 2 Describe each of the learners based on my observations.
Step 3 Validate my observation by interviewing the learners.
Step 4 Compare them in terms of their interests and needs.

OBSERVE

Use the observation guide and matrices provided for you to document your observations.
An Observation Guide for the Learners' Characteristics
Read the following statements carefully. Then write your observation report on the
provided space. Your teacher may also recommend another observation checklist if
a more detailed observation is preferred.

Physical
1. Observe their gross motor skills how they carry themselves, how they move, walk,
run, go up the stairs, etc.
2. Are gross movements clumsy or deliberate/smooth?
3. How about their fine motors skills? Writing, drawing, etc.

If an actual visit is not feasible, consider a "virtual visit" through social media. And
if still not feasible consider a "virtual" field study through watching Indigenous
Peoples in the Philippines videos. There are several available at Youtube. You can start
with this video by Dep Ed:

DepEd Indigenous Peoples Education Office National Indigenous Month (October)


Video, 2013. Retrieve from: https:// www.youtube.com.watch?v=FsMigQN2Y

3. Write your observation report.


4. Analyze your observation data using the Indigenous Peoples Education Framework.

5. Reflect on your experience.

OBSERVE
Use the observation guide provided for you to document your observations.

An Observation Guide for Indigenous Peoples Education


Read the following carefully before you begin to observe. Then write your
observation report on the space provided.

If you are watching videos you searched, instead of actually visiting a school, have
these question in mind as you are watching the videos. You can try to get in touch
with the creator of the videos and interview them too.
1. Before you observe, read about the specific IP group in the school you will visit. Know
their norms and customary greetings. This will help you blend in the school community
and interact with respect.
2. Observe and note the different parts or areas of the school environment. How are
learning spaces arranged?
3. 'What activities do they do in these different areas of the school?
4. Who are the people who manage the school? Who are involved in teaching the
learners?
5. Observe how the teaching-learning process happen. Describe the learning activities
they have and the teaching strategies that the teacher uses.
6. Describe the interaction that is taking place between the teacher and learners, among
the teachers, and in the school in general.
7. What instructional materials and learning resources are they using?
8. Interview the teacher or principal about the curriculum. Find out the curriculum goals.
You can use the questions found on the Analysis part of this activity.
