"New Blessing"

1. My Accomplishments

          Monday, we had an orientation with ma’am Soliba at the Function Hall of SLU- Laboratory High School. We shared our concerns like if we did not finish the 30 rated lesson plans in Public school. Tuesday, we fixed our quarters in the attic; we even made our decoration and clean our areas. Moreover, we were asked to facilitate the class in which they assigned to us because the teachers had their meeting at 11-12pm.  Wednesday, we had our meeting with the principal at the Function Hall of SLU- Laboratory High School; he oriented us about our rules and regulations and in teaching in the classroom. Thursday, I observed the last class of my critic teacher. After that, we had our conversation on what are we going to prepare for our lesson on Wednesday until Friday. In addition, I submitted the summary of my rated lesson plans and activities, final evaluation with my CT, and DTR September and October. 

2. My Experiences

          A new environment to face, I’m so happy to face another blessing and challenge. Last Monday, I was so nervous to know my cooperating teacher until last Wednesday because the principal was so busy with the PAASCU that’s why we just had our meeting last Wednesday. After that, we went to LEC for our meeting and for us to know our cooperating teacher. At that time, I was so speechless until I went home because of some unexplainable matters. I just said God has a plan for me so I need to be thankful and accept whatever I’m facing right now. Moreover, I observed the Grade 8 and Grade 7 classes then I saw their attitudes so I was so nervous to start my teaching. Anyway, I can do all things.
