Daily Journal

Day 01: 02 December 2013

This was the day when I and my co-student teachers went to our cooperating school to formally

start teaching. We met Mrs. Mercelita Javier who is the head teacher of Gov. Ferrer Mem. Nat’l High

School-Annex. I was assigned to the English Teacher, Ms. Katherine Quietson. She told me that the

subject that I will be teaching is English for third year high school students. She said that the third

year is still taught using the BEC curriculum. She added the scheme of teaching is through a logical

arrangement of learning competencies such as listening, reading, grammar, literature, and writing

which comprised the five days of the week. Aside from that, she informed me of the methods that I

should be using and that she wanted to see me prepare a lot of activities for the students. About

classroom management, she told me to be familiar with the school policies and act like a real teacher

in front of my would-be students. I was asked to prepare the lesson for the next day. Although I did

not expect to be teaching right away, I followed what she asked me to do. My impression of my

cooperating teacher is that she is strict and she wanted me to be strict also to my students since

according to her, they were the kind of students who need stiff discipline. I spent my remaining time

finalizing my lesson and right after I arrived at the house I prepared my materials to be used for the

next day. I prepared visual aids and drew some pictures for my lesson. It was a very long day for me

probably because this was my first day in actual teaching. It was hard but I hope it would get better in

the next few days.
