DSWD Bicol: Number

of poor in Bicol drops

473-8888

Dir. GARCIA

By DANNY O. CALLEJA
LEGAZPI CITY -- The Bicol Region has
pulled off a dramatic drop in its number of
poor families.
The recent regional survey conducted by the Department of Social Welfare
and Development (DSWD)
under its National Household Targeting System for
Poverty Reduction (NHTSPR), also called Listahanan,
noticed this achievement
that some local leaders and
observers attribute to both
natural and man-made influences.

The Listahanan survey,

done from May to September this year, reached a total
of 1,056,722 households
across all the region's six
provinces -- covering seven
cities, 107 municipalities
and 3,471 barangays.
Following assessments
through the Proxy Means
Test (PMT), only about 38.9
percent or 410,186 of them

PATA lauds Albay

ecotourism program
By SALLY ATENTO-ALTEA

LEGAZPI CITY Pacic Asia Travel Association CEO Mario Hardy lauded the province
of Albay for pushing initiatives in ecotourism
noting its promising future as a tourism destination in the Pacic Asia.

Albay as a tourism destination has a promising

future. It has a lot to offer
in terms of nature, culture
and adventure. Albay has
tremendous potential; I can
see a very good future for
the tourism industry here in
your province, Hardy said
during the media briefing
for the PATA Forum at the
Oriental Hotel yesterday.
Albay teamed up with
the Department of Toursim
(DOT) in hosting the PATA
New Tourism Frontiers Forum 2015 slated November
25-27 themed EcoturismTranscending
Climate
Change.
Hardy cited Albays
warm hospitality and generosity in hosting the event
bringing together 561 registered foreign delegates, with
target set at 168, from all corners of the world, including
Canada, Guam, Hong Kong,
Kenya, New Zealand, Sri Lan-

ka, and the United Kingdom.

This event brings together
tourism professionals from both
the public and private sector to
share their insights and experiences on tourism, and how impacts and is affected by climate
change with the aim of ensuring
the responsible growth and development of travel and tourism in a
sustainable manner, he said.
Hardy urges the provincial
government to sustain its efforts in stepping up eco tourism
industry particularly in setting
up of infrastructures such as
airports that would offer direct
flights to intensify destinations
connectivity.
He noted that everything in
Albay is green which must be
sustained and protected amidst
the expected influx of tourists.
The choice of Albay as the
venue for summit also reflects
PATAs primary advocacy issue
of dispersing tourists to lesserknown yet attractive corners of
the world.
Albay is one such destina(Turn to page 6)

editorial

Needed: Tourism
champ for Triple C
If we take the words of the foreign travel
and tourism delegates who attended the
recent Pacific Asia Travel Association
(PATA) forum in Legazpi last week, Bicol
should be bullish on the prospects of a
turn-around in its economy.
The reason reminds us of the usual
answer of mountaineers why they climb
mountains they are there.
The tourism resources of Bicol are
already here,
One need not go to Boracay as we
have Calaguas.
One doesnt have to go to Phuket to
see those limecliffs and jagged islands
jutting out of the ocean, as Caramoan
is now just two to three hours road trip
from Naga.
You need some solitary spiritual
sojourn take Nagas Pilgrimage route.
Culture vulture? Try the Mexican
baroque faade of Daraga church.
Needing hot stuff? Why not taste the
fiery Bicol Express or trek to Basud
and see the protuberant Mt. Susong
Dalaga or the phallic Boto ni Curacog in
Catanduanes?
Yes, we all have them here. Except
perhaps more government leaders who
share the vision of Albay Gov. Joey
Salceda and DOT Regional Director Nini
Ravanilla that Bicol can be the next big
thing in the country, in terms of economy,
and that, through tourism.
We say we need more tourism
champion. So we suggest that for the
planned Triple C combine, we should
have Gov. Araceli Wong of Catanduanes
to lead the way Gov. Joey does the
Almasor.
We cant rely on governors whose idea
perhaps of tourism is showing their skin
or abs on tarps and the social media.
We need a champ who had seen the
potentials of the surf and the waves at
Bagasbas and Puraran.

Higher Phil Imports

(Atty. APA chairs Acyatan & Co.,
CPAs-DFK International is past chair
of ASEAN Federation of CPAs, PICPA
past president and Hall-of-Famer,
and ACPAPP Lifetime Achievement
Awardee).
HIGHER PHIL IMPORTS LATEST:
Philippine imports rise for the fourth
straight month last September.
The
imports mainly consisted of raw materials
and consumer goods, The Philippine
Statistics Authority said total payments
for imports increased 6.7% to $6.2 billion
last September from $5.8 billion in the
same month last year.In the 9-month
period of 2015, merchandise imports
rose 2.3% to $49.9 billion from $48.8
billion whichwas recorded a year earlier.
Reasons given for this bright
development were the upbeat sentiment
from the business sector and an overall
improvement in consumer expectations
for the coming quarter (including the
Yuletide season).To a great extent the
very tame inflation rate is encouraging,
as people may be able to buy more with
the same amount of money they usually
have on hand, buoyed up by OFW
remittances for Christmas.Importations
of capital goods indicate business and
industry trust for the days ahead.
INVESTMENTS: The
Philippine
Economic Zone Authority (PEZA)
reported that investments grew by13.2%
in the last 10 months. Total investments
registered with the Authority surged
year-on-year toP174.27 billion as of endOctober (2015) on continued investor
confidence by manufacturing firms
in the country. The upsurge was so
encouraging that PEZA directorgeneral Lilia De Lima revised this

years PEZA growth target of 8%-9%
to at least 10%.
The number of projects registered
with PEZA as of end-October rose 2.65%
to 503 from 490 during the same period
last year. Direct employment generated
by these investments likewise jumped
7.97% to1.24 million from last years 1.15
million. Value of products exported from
the economic zones, was just at par with
the previous years figures as cheaper.
light goods comprised the products that
were exported abroad.
ABROAD: Pope Francis (Lolo Kiko)
is currently on a three-nation visit to
Africa, a trip which shows the Pontiffs
concern for the least of his brethren.
He carried over his sincere message
of love andcompassion to the areas in
the African continent where incidence
of poverty is at the highest levels.The
present pope has successfully shown
to the whole world that his brand of
Catholicism embraces without exception
all Christian believers.
Meantime, our own president
P-Noy is abroad once again
after the ASEAN Summit in Kuala

Lumpur. He is now in Paris for the

climate change global conference.
Our president will speak there to tell
the world how we as a nation and
as a people with stood the almost
successive and regular weather
disturbances that hit our country in the
last three years. The Filipino expertise
in calamity survival and endurance
will be highlighted for everyone to
understand the true Pinoy nature.
POLITICS: The entry of Davao
City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte in the
presidential derby has changed the
political landscape. We say that
his earlier vacillation was a master
stroke, even as he was able to hit his
potential adversaries before formally
tossing his hat into the ring. First,
he refused possible alliance with VP
Binay, then he attacked the alleged
below the belt campaign of the
Liberal Party, and later referred with
disdain the citizenship morality of
Grace Poe.
Duterte has divided the voting
hearts of the Filipino voters between
those who believe that criminality
must be eradicated by all means
and those who say that regardless
of ends the means must be legal
and within the law. In the end,
violence and bullying tactics should
be avoided by our chosen leaders.
In our present world the hotheads
may win in the beginning, but always
in the end, the logic of the law will
surely prevail.
WISDOM. Welcoming, worshipping and forgiving communities are
signs that Gods Kingdom is in our
midst.

749,965 homes built by HUDCC since 2010 under VP Binay

The following is a report of the
Housing and Urban Development
Coordinating Council (HUDCC)
headed by Vice President Binay. It
is for information and study of the
presidential candidates running in 2016
as to their character, whether they are
compassionate and pro-poor.
MANILA, PhilippinesThe
government has built 750,000 homes
over the past four years, according to
a report by the Housing and Urban
Development Coordinating Council
(HUDCC) headed by Vice President
JejomarBinay.
The agency announced the
accomplishments of the governments
shelter agencies last Friday as Binay
continued to battle corruption charges
in a Senate inquiry into alleged
irregularities in Makati when he was
the citys mayor.
The HUDCC said 749,965 homes
had been built since 2010, with the
government spending P358 billion for
the projects.
On the other hand, the
BangkoSentralngPilipinas and the
Social Security System had disposed
of 9,152 acquired properties valued at
more or less P2 billion, the report said.
The government housing sector is very
grateful for the support given by the
President in the housing programs of the
shelter agencies. These achievements
would not have happened without
the support of the President, Binay,
President Aquinos housing czar, said
in a statement on Friday.
In previous interviews, President
Aquino had credited Binay for the
achievements of his administrations
housing program.
Informal settlers benefited
According to Binay, the governments
socialized housing production arm, the
National Housing Authority (NHA), had
reported that 360,630 families received
housing assistance equivalent to P49.2

from
my

nenita fuentebella-peones
billion.
He said the NHA programs benefited
informal settlers, especially those living
in danger zones, and families affected
by calamities. Soldiers and policemen
were also among the beneficiaries of
government housing programs, he
said. The Pag-Ibig Fund, the stateowned housing lender, delivered
215,695 homes worth P153.7 billion,
Binay said.
He said Pag-Ibig built the homes
without receiving funds from the
national government, using instead
financing programs, including the
Affordable Housing Program.
Pag-Ibig also increased its maximum
loanable amount to P6 million and
lowered its interest rates, he said.
Meanwhile, the Social Housing
Finance Corp. (SHFC), the shelter
agency that engages communities to
organize for secure tenure, provided
P3 billion to enable 49,294 informal
settler families to buy land and build
homes under community ownership.
The SHFC also granted loans worth
P121 million to 1,756 informal settler
families in danger zones in Metro
Manila, Binay said.
The Vice President acknowledged
the crucial role the private sector plays
in housing.
Private sector encouraged
The government cannot do it

alone. It is for this reason that we

encourage the private sector to
undertake and finance mass housing
developments, Binay said.
Two state-run shelter agencies
the Home Guaranty Corp. (HGC)
and the National Home Mortgage
Finance Corp. (NHMFC)deal with
private institutions, such as banks
and developers.
In the last four years, the HGC
guaranteed P153 billion in housing
loans, equivalent to 124,346 homes,
and expanded its guaranty coverage
to include loans of rural banks and
microfinance institutions, Binay said.
The NHMFC bought P2.7-billion
seasoned housing loan receivables
equivalent to 12,386 homes, he
said. The asset pool was turned into
marketable securities called Bahay
Bonds, which are available to small
and big investors.
The shelter agencies instituted
reforms and implemented innovative
programs to maximize generation
of housing units according to their
mandate, Binay said.
Since July 2010, 2,749 licenses
to sell equivalent to 777,931 homes
were issued by the Housing and Land
Use Regulatory Board, the regulatory
body on housing development,
Binay said. We are confident that
the reforms, coupled with the new
programs we have put in place, will
encourage the players in the sector
to put more investment in housing
that will in the long run address the
housing need, Binay said.

Organic farming school yields first grads

By DANNY O. CALLEJA
LEGAZPI CITY -- A
group of agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) in Catanduanes is now a proud batch of
graduates of the first organic
Farmers Field School (FFS)
organized in the province by
the regional office for Bicol
here of the Department of
Agrarian Reform (DAR).
The batch has 32 members who successfully completed the season-long course
recently and now distributed
among various agrarian reform communities (ARCs) in
the island-province to showcase to their peers the miracles of organic farming
based on what they learned
from the FFS, DAR Bicol
Regional Director Luis Bueno Jr. on Wednesday said.
The FFS, which focuses on
technology transfer through a
combination of lectures and
actual field demonstrations
on what have been previously discussed in the classroom,
is where farmers are given a
chance to have new field experiences.
It is a group-based learning process where the participants are given on-hand
learning activities that grant
them awareness on a variety
of
environmental-friendly
farming innovations.
The training program also
equips farmers with the tech-

nology as a measure to further

increase local production as
it includes pests and diseases
prevention, appropriate fertilizer application and water
management that contribute
immensely to a more efficient
and improved plant growth to
attain high yield.
It is a three-month training
program composed of 16 sessions starting from planting
until the time that the crop
would be ready to be harvested.
After completing the program that provides them
knowledge on proven agricultural practices based
on organic system, Bueno
said, it is expected that these
ARBs would be able to increase their production out
of their learning on crop protection and organic fertilizer
and pesticide applications
provided by experts from the
DAs Agricultural Training
Institute (ATI).
DAR-Bicol has earlier
forged a partnership with the
Department of Agriculture
(DA) regional office based in
Pili, Camarines Sur and ATI
towards providing Bicolano
ARBs with knowledge in organic crop production.
After graduation from the
FFS, these graduates were
given by DAR vegetable, rice
and corn seeds to start with
their farm and backyard crop

Bueno.
ARCCESS is a program
under the administration of

ARBs into viable entrepreneurs by providing them
with support services to
enhance their farming capabilities and increase their
income.
Its beneficiaries are landless farmers -- including agricultural lessees, tenants, as

Sa kaso halimbasa ni Rizal, si saiyang pagigin martir sa

Garo gustong italbong na sa kalingawan an makanos na

An dakulang trahedya iyo na an nag-gadan asin an mga nagkonspirar para ipagadan an Supremo kan Katipunan mayong

Classroom Management

By ANECITA A. MENDOZA - Teacher II

San Jose Elementary School, San Jose, Iriga City
A teacher is not just a teacher, he or she is also a leader;
she manages, supervises, secures, parents, and do many other
things inside the class to ensure order, organization and discipline,
to achieve an environment conducive for learning. Classroom
management is the key to achieve such environ. I myself, as a grade
1 teacher have encountered issues with students behavior when
it comes to instilling the desired behavior among them. Employing
effective class management has allowed me mitigate unnecessary
noise inside the class, impart discipline among my students, fostered
a sense of responsibility among them, and mitigate problems on
attendance.
The problem with student attendance with regards to class
management is a common difficulty. There are many reasons for this.
Some students fail to go to school for financial reasons, others for
helping their family, and health reasons are also there. The teacher
must be aware of such reasons and check their validity. The teacher

Why Classroom Management is Critical in Teaching

By JASPER A. CLAVILLAS - Master Teacher 2
Iriga Central School, Iriga City

One cannot expect effective teaching and learning in a

classroom that is poorly managed. This is not just a seeming.
This is a fact. That is why teachers have to give a lot of attention
to good classroom management. When pupils are disorderly
and disrespectful, expect the teachers not to function well. He
will be engrossed more in getting his pupils attention rather
than in teaching. At the end of the day, no lesson would have
transpired and the pupils would not have learned anything.
What a waste of time!
Needless to say, rules and procedures that guide behavior
are necessary in order to prevent chaos inside the classroom.
In situations like this, teachers find it difficult to teach and pupils
suffer the consequences. The teacher, likewise, would find
himself in a situation he is are confronted with a bigger challenge.
A well-managed classroom provides an environment that is very
conducive to teaching. And learning will sure follow. So, it does
good for both the teachers and learner..
Classroom management is very important because the
pupils will be able to understand the lesson better since there
are no untoward disruptions. Subsequently, they will be able to
apply what they learned especially when examination comes.
Classroom management will likewise make the students
prepared to learn.
Confidence will be boosted. The teacher is able to give
more attention to each pupil and structure lesson plans to meet

particular needs and requirements. This way, confidence can

be built for both of them.
Keeping the pupils pay attention is challenging to the
teacher. But the teacher simply need to have devises to make
learning effective. Motivating the students will be very helpful.
A good presentation of the lesson will likewise get the interest
of the pupils. The teacher can get the pupils to be more
participative in the lessons. Grouping them together helps.
This way, the pupils get to work together, the ones who are
better can encourage the ones who are not. There develop
an intellectual bonding among them. The pupils get to know and
like one another. When pupils are cordial to one another, they
learn better and more because the spirit of sharing is there.
Teaching becomes effective when rules are imposed and
monitored closely. It is best for teachers to have expectations
and being positive about them. Pupils should be aware of these
rules and their consequences if these rules are not adhered
to. These rules, however, should be reviewed regularly. When
there are pupils who exude very good behavior they may be
given rewards which may be a certificate of good deportment
or school materials. There is fairness here.
It would be well for parents to know what rules are being
imposed on their children.
On a very light note, pupils like teachers with a sense of
humor. And also those who lead by example.

Entrepreneurship Education. An Essential Element

for Economic Progress
By ARLENE D. RECIO, DBM - Teacher III
Rinconada National Technical Vocational School, Iriga City

Education is an essential element of entrepreneurship.

Studies show that students who receive entrepreneurship
education are not only more likely to be employed, but also more
likely to start their own business. Entrepreneurial education is
one of the best ways to support growth and generate jobs. New
businesses are the biggest source of new jobs helps create
businesses. The role of education in entrepreneurship goes
far beyond classroom teaching and incorporates participation
in business ecosystems, partnerships and industrial alliances.
It is distinctive in that it requires a generalists approach versus
the more traditional specialized business education programs.
It geared toward creativity, multi-disciplinary, process-oriented
approaches, and theory-based practical application. Traditional
approaches focused on knowledge-based courses in areas
such as management, accounting and finance. On the other
hand, entrepreneurship education focuses on new growth
ventures.
Entrepreneurship educators must expand their pedagogies
to include new and innovative approaches. It has been
said that one definition of insanity is doing the same thing
and expecting different results. Therefore, the emerging
generation of entrepreneurship educators must avoid the
paradigm paralysis that has consumed so many business
disciplines because entrepreneurship education is outside

traditional business and there is no dominant pedagogical

model curriculum. Pedagogies applied outside the classroom
include consultation with practicing entrepreneurs, interviews
with entrepreneurs, field trips, internships and cooperative
education opportunities with actual entrepreneurs and student
entrepreneurship. Reality-based pedagogies such as student
start-ups have been recommended. Students must have
substantive hands-on experience working with community
ventures to add value to real ventures. In utilizing their
entrepreneurial skills, operational zed their vision into a reallive of operating business. The students applied knowledge
obtained from entrepreneurship like making decisions related
to starting and operating the business. Applied analytical
skills by utilizing real business information and situations to
solve problems and decision making, Communicated (both
orally and in writing) in preparing the marketing plan, the
business plan and policies and procedures manual. The
students can orally communicate to and persuaded potential
customers. They can utilized negotiation skills to obtain
resources, effectively worked in teams to achieve results,
sought and obtained information about and complied with
legal requirements related to their business such as permits
and licenses and lastly, utilize creative thought processes
to solve business issues.

continue to grow and with sincerity
in helping others without expecting
of something in return. He also added

neighbouring provinces will be the one
benefited by this organization where
he shared his expertise in three ways,
1) preparedness in disaster response
in times of calamities or a man made
calamities just like what happened
in Paris, 2) capability enhancement
and development to extend a support

through employment and livelihood

program to those member reservists

thoughts, in words and in deeds.

theme Move Fast for a Better Bicol where he says, ang makikinabang dito ay ang lugar ng Bicol
kung saan pwedeng tumulong ang
mga reservists in times of calamities and the one that is lacking is an
organization. He also says that in
putting this kind of organization, can
now easily determine what are the
specific problems of the reservists that he can brought to the AFP

were identified as poor.
The PMT is a statistical model that
estimates the income of households using the proxy variables indicated in the
Family Assessment Form accomplished
by enumerators while conducting
house-to-house interviews.
This year's Listahanan is the second
round after the first made by the DSWD
in 2009 that recorded a depressing figure 59.5 percent or 461,242 families of
the 775,014 households assessed were
poor.
Mayor Noel Rosal of this premier
Bicol city recognized as the region's
tourism capital and fast emerging as
the Southern Luzon's business center,
said that first of all, this improvement
is a work of nature which spared them
from strong typhoons for the past nine
years now.
It could be one of the good impacts
of climate change insofar as the region
is concerned because all super typhoons
that entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility since the past nine years
have spared the area, once known as the
path of tropical storms.
The last devastating scenario was
during typhoons "Milenyo" and "Reming" which successively battered the
region in the late part of 2006 killing
hundreds of people, leaving homeless
thousands of families, toppling power
supply facilities, infrastructures and
other major installations and destroying
billions of pesos worth of farm crops
and livestock.
What is also impressive, according
to regional director Agnes Espinas of
the National Economic Development
Authority (NEDA), is the peculiarity
of Bicolanos in refusing to go down
on their knees amid those disasters and
rising fast silently sans much howl and
protest.
The favorable weather, this outstanding trait of Bicolanos bolstered by
the change in national administration in
2010 which introduced inclusive economic growth, the putting into practice
of countryside development, restoration
of peace in rural barangays, the various
poverty alleviation interventions and
the upsurge in private investments are
among the important factors affecting
this poverty rate fall, she said.
Today, good life does not only continue to bloom in Bicol after those past
decades of disasters, government neglect, fears from the raging insurgency
war and extreme poverty that confined
it in the cellar among regions but the region has been getting livelier and continues to nourish its booming economy
and explore more opportunities to rise
high, Espinas noted.
This city, she said, is among the top
economic development gainers, making
it to the latest listing of Bicol cities and
municipalities with lower incidence of
poverty owing to the tremendous performance of its tourism industry.

The listing, which was recently

released by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) based
on the project on the generation of the
2012 Municipal and City Level Poverty
Estimates, says that poverty incidence
in 88 of the 114 municipalities and the
seven cities of the region declined between 2009 and 2012.
Legazpi is mentioned in the NSCB
list as the only city in Bicol to be among
the top 10 municipalities and cities with
the largest reduction in poverty incidence.
These improvements lifted Bicol
from the rank of 4th to 7th among the
country s poorest regions with Masbate
earlier ranked as among the 10 poorest
provinces graduating from the circle in
2012 owing to the reduction of political
violence and tourism industry advancement.
These statistics are reinforced by
another listing recently made by the
National Anti-Poverty Commission
(NAPC) which identified the Top 10
provinces in the Philippines that have
the highest poverty incidence among
families from 2006 to 2012 not one
from Bicol included.
The 10 are Lanao del Sur, followed
by Eastern Samar, Apayao, Maguindanao, Zamboanga del Sur, Sarangani,
North Cotabato, Negros Oriental,
Northern Samar and Western Samar.
Indeed, the biggest contributor to
Bicol's economic growth is the tourism industry which last year generated
nearly 3.3 million arrivals for a gross
income receipts of around Php2 billion.
These benefited 556 hotels with
around 10,000-room occupancy and
generated about four million local jobs
regionwide, said Department of Tourism (DOT) Regional Director Maria
Ong-Ravanilla who added that these
figures are seen to improve this year
with this city as the highest performer,
posting nearly one million arrivals.
DSWD Regional Director Arnel
Garcia said the lists of poor households
identified in the survey are now posted
in barangays for public scrutiny as part
of the validation process that entertains
appeals and or complaints before the
list is officially finalized.
The validation provides an opportunity for the review of the preliminary
list of poor where wrong entries can be
corrected such as spelling of names,
birthday, address and others as well
as the inclusion of those households
not visited during the regular enumeration.
Garcia said DSWD encourages the
public to follow these simple steps in
the Listahanan validation process: carefully review the preliminary list of poor
posted by the DSWD in barangays;
come to the area supervisor if there are
questions or complaints to the list; and
file a complaint without forgetting to
write complete information on a complaint form.

Teacher's Home Visitation

Bridge the Gap

Teaching English &

Literature the Easy Way

By IDA T. IBARRIENTOS - Teacher III

Rinconada National Technical Vocational School, Iriga City

By JUVY G. CLAVILLAS - Master Teacher 2

Iriga Central School, Iriga City

In a world of expanding class sizes and endless paperwork.

getting to know ones student often feels like a never ending
battle. In many schools across the nation, a cycle of blame
continues to exist between parents and school personnel when
some problems exists like low student achievement, high level
of poverty and high percentage of students not entering their
classes. As a teacher, it is a need to know and understand our
students why they behave such.
Home visits lead to bridge the gap between parents and
educators, creating the foundation for understanding and
cooperation between the home and the school that is vital to
every students success. Some research points the importance
of parents supporting their childrens learning in the home. A
home visit is one way to deepen the partnership between teacher
and parent to increase the students chances for success. The
purpose of a home visit was to understand the family better.
Some research shows that when parents and teachers
work together, students do better academically and socially,
attendance increases, student performance improves,
graduation rates increase, and more students pursue college
education.
Home visits are a more effective strategy because they bring
parents and teachers together for a meaningful conversation
outside the classroom. For example during the visit each
teacher and family member shares hopes and dreams,
expectations, experiences and tools regarding the childs
academic success.
In visiting students home, it is important to consider a few
items.
1. Determine the purpose of the visit such as learning more
about the students and exploring ways that the school and
teacher can better serve the families.
2. Schedule a home visit 7 to 10 days in advance.
3. Communicate the purpose of your visit and approximately
how long the visit will last (30 to 45 minutes)
4. Be on time.
Once trust is built, a partnership is formed and then they
are empowered to make the necessary changes for student to
succeed.

What is a big stumbling block in teaching English is the fact

that a big percent, in fact, maybe ninety nine percent of pupils in
the elementary public school have a very limited knowledge of
the English both as a language and a subject. The fact remains
that pupils in the elementary level get exposed only to English in
their third grade. With Mother Tongue now offered as part of the
K-12 curriculum, the exposure to English becomes even more
limited. Time in the past was when all pupils from the first grade
and onwards were English proficient that every single pupil seem
to speak English correctly. Today, although some children can
carry well the use of English as a medium of communication,
it is not, however, safe to say that speak English correctly.
The use of Taglish (read: Tagalog-English or Enggalog (read
English-Tagalog) has even made the sdIt goes this way, one
speaks Tagalog (now Filipino) partly and English teaching the
subject difficult than it used to. This use of the language must
confused with bilingual because bilingual is very formal and
academically accepted.
In some Filipino homes, the language used by the family is
English, the househelp not exempted. She has to speak English,
no matter how wrong is pronunciation or his grammar is but
English must be the official language at home, Poor yaya but
poorer will the small chidren who are exposed to their yaya longer
than they are to the other members of the family who are most
likely speakers of the language like it is a first language. This
situation creates confusion and maybe, trouble for the children
when they go to school.
.There are three domains in teaching English and these
are all considerably given equal attention, They are listening,
speaking, reading and writing. There are also four skills that
should be developed and enhanced if English must be learned
and used by the learners effectively. They are function, form,
fluency and vocabulary.
Literature which is a component of teaching can be taught
following these simple steps/.
Pre-reading come first. The children are asked to read the
lesson in literature as their assignment so that when they come
to school the following day they are prepared for a discussion
of the assigned lesson.
But first an unlocking of difficulties is done. This simply means
giving the meaning of words the pupils do not understand. The
words may be used in sentences.
After the discussion of the assigned lesson a review of the
story (if it is a story) or the essay or poetry must be done and
this will build on student responses on a think-aloud format.
After the discussion, a writing activity may follow.
The study of literature may be complemented by using other

means of understanding the piece that is being studied. The

children may be asked to dramatize the whole story. They should
be grouped and each group presents a dramatization of a part
of the story. If the students are creative enough, they present
the story as a radio or a television play complete with costumes
and even technical considerations.
The literary piece being studied may be the theme for projects
that they pupils may want to do like painting some scenes from
the story. Or else, a writing contest like an essay or poetry writing
may be held. A story telling contest can also help the pupils
understand and appreciate the story better.

should talk to the student, or more appropriately visit the student and
talk with the parents. With regards to tardiness, a clear-cut rules should
settle this but with appropriate consequence so that students will avoid
repeating the same act. If still recurrent, talking to the student or to
their parents is advised. Never humiliate the student.
There is no formula for an effective classroom management, it
depends on many factors; number of students, their attitudes and
personality, the environment itself, but the most important factor is the
teacher factor, and even the appearance of the teacher commands
respect and impression. There is no formula, but there are some
pointers that might help those rookies out there. Here are some of
them.
There must be perceived clear and just rules. It sets the limitations
and boundaries of what they can and cannot do. This must not just
be known but also observed, which brings me to the second point.
The teacher must be consistent. In employing or executing the rules
the teacher must be just, wise, and consistent that the rules stays the
same in all occasions to avoid precedent.
The teacher must be a role model. Not only they can walk the
walk, but also exude exemplary behaviors that student can look up
to. A teacher does not rule, she leads. There is a huge difference.
A students behavior must be not because of fear but because
of understanding that this is the right course of action. Not out of
stimulation but inspiration.
A teacher must be fair, just, merciful and open-minded. This is
not to contradict the second point but to highlight the idea that special
cases, an exemption to the rule, valid reason or excuse has to be put
into consideration. It is important that a teacher must have the wisdom
to see its validity, if her decision will be fair, so she must see things
from different perspectives.
The teacher must share responsibilities. She must assign tasks
to students so they can realize the value of commitment, duty, and
responsibility. The most important, a teacher must treat students
as their own children. A mother who loves does not spoil her child.
She does not harm, but exudes warmth, she sets rules but also
encourages, she teaches rather than instructs, and she is reformative
rather than punitive.
Classroom management is a skill and with experience it grows
with efficiency and effectiveness. It is what transforms a teacher from
an instructor to a facilitator.
