Session 1 – The DepEd’s Mandate
The DepEd’s Mandate
The Department of Education (DepEd) was established
through the Education Decree of 1863 as the Superior
Commission of Primary Instruction under a Chairman.
The Education agency underwent many reorganization
efforts in the 20th century in order to better define its
purpose vis-à-vis the changing administrations and
charters. The present-day Department of Education was
eventually mandated through Republic Act No. 9155,
otherwise known as the Governance of Basic Education
Act of 2001, which establishes the mandate of this
agency.
DepEd formulates, implements, and coordinates
policies, plans, programs, and projects in the areas
of formal and non-formal basic education. It
supervises all elementary and secondary education
institutions, including alternative learning systems,
both public and private; and provides for the
establishment and maintenance of a complete,
adequate, and integrated system of basic education
relevant to the goals of national development.
Required Task 1: Reflection Questions
Reflect on the DepEd’s mandate and respond to
the questions below. You may respond in 2-5
sentences for each.
As a newly hired teacher in DepEd, what can
you contribute to:
a. promote quality education?
In education, teachers are a key element
to educational quality because they orchestrate
instructional interactions with and between
students around academic content, and these
classroom interactions – in an ideal world –
influence student learning.
As a beginning teacher, I will familiarize
myself first with the Department of Education. I
have to put first in mind and heart the mandate
mission, vision, core values, and the strategic
direction of DepEd to ensure that I am
promoting quality of education as the
department wants to. I will also make sure that I
will be doing the best that I could in preparing
and delivering substantial lessons. I will also
create an environment that is conducive to the
students to learn.

b. uphold equity in education? c. respond to the needs of the learners?
Equity in education involves
providing every student an
environment, opportunities, tools, and
resources to be successful. I can uphold
equity in education by giving equal
opportunity to my learners regardless of
their race, religion, culture, color, and
status. Providing them with varied
instruction to address the different
learning styles of my learners. I will
remove the barriers to learning and
promote collaboration in the classroom
and give more opportunities to all the
learners to excel.
Meet the needs and adopt the
standards of living of every learner. Do
not make expectations too high
because every learner is unique. I will
teach them good values and discuss
with them the importance of valuing the
difference of each other. And of course,
it will all start with me, I will make every
lesson have a motivation to make every
learning learn in a way they will feel safe
and not forced.

Session 2: Vision, Mission, and Core Values
Preliminary Activity:
As a new public-school teacher, what are your visions for yourself, for your class, and your school community?
MY VISION BOARD
SELF CLASS SCHOOL COMMUNITY
As a new public-school
teacher, my goal is to be
an effective and efficient
one. I always wanted more
for my students. What and
who they were today; I
wanted them to grow and
to see them discover their
strengths and weaknesses,
build their character, and
became a better person
intellectually and morally.
My vision is to have a class
which supports the
learners safely as they
discover and explore new
ideas. I want my class to
help all children find a
sense of purpose in their
lives through education.
Ensure all lessons are
student-centered and
differentiated so that it will
fit to their unique cultures
and behaviors.
I see my school to be
competitive and, at the
same time, supportive to
build learners’ confidence
and attitude to be
responsible individuals
who aspire to achieve the
highest level their
potential.

Key Topic 1: DepEd’s Vision
Vision
We dream of Filipinos
who passionately love their country
and whose values and
competencies
enable them to realize their full potential
and contribute meaningfully to building the nation.
As a learner-centered public institution,
the Department of Education
continuously improves itself
to better serve its stakeholders.
Required Task 1: Application
Let’s see how you would apply the DepEd’s vision in
responding to the following school scenarios. Write your
answer on the space provided.
Scenario 1:
Teacher Johanna is a Grade 7 teacher at Jacobo Z.
Gonzales Memorial National High school. She encourages
her learners to demonstrate their love of country through
practicing acts of kindness inside and outside the school
premises. Provide at least two ways of integrating this in
her lessons. You may respond in 3-5 sentences.
Teacher Johanna should think
first of the subjects where she can
integrate and achieve her lesson
objectives, say for example, she
integrates it in Araling Panlipunan.
Then, the learners will be tasked to
perform or accomplish activities
portraying their love for country. It is
encouraged that learners may
explore for bigger ideas and
concepts, and not just answer close-
ended questions. The learning must
be observable and authentic to
make better emphasis and
understanding of the lesson.

Scenario 2:
One of the Grade 9 advisory students of Teacher Andrew
is showing interest in joining scouting. However, the
student is very shy and timid. In what ways can Teacher
Andrew help his learners to gain confidence and
participate in scouting? You may respond in 3-5
sentences.
Key Topic 2: DepEd’s Mission
Mission
To protect and promote the right of every Filipino to
quality, equitable, culture-based, and complete basic
education where:
Students learn in a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe,
and motivating environment.
Teachers facilitate learning and constantly nurture every
learner.
Administrators and staff, as stewards of the institution,
ensure an enabling and supportive environment for
effective learning to happen.
Family, community, and other stakeholders are
actively engaged and share responsibility for developing
life-long learners.
Let’s see how you would apply the DepEd’s mission in
responding to the following school scenarios. Write your
answer on the space provided.
Teacher Andrew should do the
Hands-on Orientation and provide a
practical method of learning to build
better confidence among scouts.
Activities and games provide a fun
way to develop skills and provide
contact with nature and the
environment when pursued in an
outdoor setting. Scouts learn in small
groups to build united and
camaraderie atmosphere.

Scenario 1:
Teacher Helga is a Grade 1 teacher at Biñan Elementary
School. She is teaching Science. She wants to make
sure that she can provide a child-friendly, gender-
sensitive, safe, and motivating environment in her class.
What should she do to achieve this? You may respond in
3-5 sentences.
Key Topic 3: The DepEd Core Values
Core Values
In promoting “One DepEd,” the official DepEd core
values adapted the national motto as stated in the
Republic Act No. 8491 (otherwise known as the Flag and
Heraldic Code of the Philippines). The core values are
enumerated as such:
Maka-Diyos
Maka-tao
Makakalikasa
n Makabansa
As an example on how we can interpret these, the
DepEd core values have been elaborated further by the
Division of Baguio City by translating the core values to
behavioral statements with indicators.
The Baguio City Division Memorandum could be
accessed through this link: http://depedpines.com/wp-
content/ uploads/2016/03/Division-Memorandum-No35-
S.2016- DepEd-CORE-Values-Indicators-Concrete-
Manifestation. pdf
In line with the Child Protection
Policy of the Department of
education, Teacher Helga should
facilitate a non-discriminatory
curriculum. She must build relevance
between her classroom environment
and her students’ lives. She also
needs to keep a clean and orderly
classroom which allow learners to be
expressive and encouraging. The
classroom must be a medium to
develop good values and respect
regardless of the differences in
gender, identity, background,
culture and religion.

Let’s see how you would apply the DepEd Core Values
in responding to the following school scenarios. You may
answer the following questions in 3-5 sentences. Write
your answer on the space provided.
Scenario 1:
Teacher Luis is a Grade 10 guidance counselor and a
Values Education teacher at Arellano High School. One
of his classes has a diverse religious background. One
day, two of the learners insisted that the class should
start with a prayer led by an assigned student. This leads
to a heated debate arguing about their own religious and
spiritual beliefs. How can Teacher Luis mediate and help
resolve the argument? (You may refer to Department
Order (No. 32, s. 2013) and Department Order (69, s.
1990)).
Scenario 2:
The DepEd Core Values teaches us the love for God
(maka-Diyos), love for fellow men (maka-tao), love for
nature (makakalikasan), and love for country
(makabansa). Teacher Molina inspires his Grade 2
learners to become a better version of themselves
through exemplifying qualities and characters of our
national heroes. What classroom management strategies
can Teacher Molina employ to encourage learners to
apply the DepEd core values in real life situations?
Teacher Luis should explain to all
his pupils that students with different
religious beliefs should not force to
participate to any religious activity
that is not allowed on their religion.
They should learn to respect the
religion of other people to avoid
discrimination in the class. That’s why
if one of their classmates does not join
or lead the prayer in their class, they
should respect their decision.
To teach the DepEd core values
to Grade 2 pupils, Teacher Molina
can use it as an activity wherein she
can assign her class per group to act
as one of the national heroes and
portray the good values that they
have, through this pupil can
internalized the good values in real
life situations.

Session 3: Strategic Directions

environment to my class and
encourage cooperation in learning.
I will provide varied activities
wherein everyone can participate.
I will strengthen the school
partnership with the parents and
other stakeholders for the welfare
of the school and the pupils.

Strategic Directions
As an agency, the Department of Education sets plans
and actions to achieve its vision within a given time
projected. These strategic directions are time-bound and
are measured through strategic objectives.
An example is the Strategic Directions specifically for
year 2017-2022 by the administration of Sec. Leonor
Magtolis- Briones.

to make the education of my student as
my first and most important priority and I
will exert more effort to learn how to help
my students to learn.

Required Task 3: Reflection
After going through this module, (DepEd Mandate,
Vision, Mission, Core Values, and Strategic Directions),
answer the following questions. Write your responses in
3-5 sentences.
1. In what ways has this module helped you reflect
on the Vision, Mission, Core Values, and Strategic
Directions of the Department of Education?
Through this module I now
understand that term “teacher” is a very
broad definition. That his/her role does
not end in the four walls of the classroom.
Teacher is one of the important people
who mold and shape the minds of the
pupils. Because of this module, I realized
that I cannot provide the quality
education to my pupils if I did not seek to
continue my professional development.

2. How has this module helped you clarify your vision
and motivations in serving your learners better and in
promoting a learner-centered environment for them?
3.
3.What are your personal beliefs and values that are
aligned with the DepEd’s VMV (Vision, Mission, Core
Values)?
This module serves as my wake-
up call to continue my dream to change
the lives of my pupils as my top priority
despite of the challenges I encountered
as a new teacher. This serves as my
guide to be a competent teacher and
provide learner centered environment
that focus on the welfare of my pupils.

My personal beliefs that are
aligned with the DepEd Vision, Mission
and Core Values is that “We should not
judge a book by its cover”, because I
realized that as a teacher, I should not
judge my pupils by just looking at them
or by their mistakes they created
because, the intelligence of a child is not
measured by it. I should give equal
opportunities to all my pupils when it
comes to learning regardless of their
attitudes or behaviors. And as a teacher,
it is my duty to change the lives of my
pupils one at a time.

Session 4 – The Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers
Required Task 1: Video Viewing
Click here or go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA5cD474aIU to watch the PPST explainer video (8:41 minutes)
Use the table below to take note of important information.
What I learned from watching
the PPST explainer video
What else i want to know about
the PPST/ concepts that need clarification
I have learned that the PPST
Standards helps us further find out
and develop better and more
effective ways of teaching.
Learning is a lifetime experience, and
it is a lifetime journey.
How can this PPST Strands implement in
easy way with the overlapping activities
of teachers has throughout the year
without causing them too much stress.

Key Topic 1: Introduction to the
PPST
In light of the Department of Education’s vision to
continuously improve itself to better serve its
stakeholders, the Department is committed to developing
teacher competencies that are abreast with the changing
demands and needs of K to 12 curriculum, globalization
and ASEAN integration. Hence, the Department released
DepEd Order no. 42 s. 2017 on National Adoption and
Implementation of the Philippine Professional Standards
for Teachers (PPST).
The PPST:
• sets clear expectations of teachers along well-defined
career stages of professional development from
beginning to distinguished practice;
• engages teachers to embrace ongoing professional
learning for their professional development to
enhance their own teaching;
• provides a framework of uniform measures to assess
teacher performance; and
• provides a basis for building public confidence in and
support for the work of teachers.
DepEd Order no. 42, s. 2017 mandates that the PPST
“shall be used as a basis for all learning and
development programs for teachers to ensure that
teachers are properly equipped to effectively implement
the K to 12 Program. It can also be used for the
selection and promotion of teachers. All performance
appraisal for teachers shall be based on this framework”
(Section 5).
In line with the above provisions, in DepEd Order (No.
11,
s. 2019) on Implementation of the NEAP Transformation,
NEAP is mandated to provide standards-
based professional

development programs and courses for all DepEd Teachers, School
Heads and Supervisors. All professional development for teachers is to
be based on the PPST. More in-depth discussions on PPST will be
tackled in Course 3 of TIP.
Key Topic 2: The Teacher Professional
Development Framework
In order to help teachers seamlessly adopt and embody the
expectations in the standards, the PPST has been integrated in
DepEd’s Professional Development Framework (see Figure 1). The
framework shows the professional development path of teachers
starting from the Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) towards their
career development in DepEd. Teachers’ professional development is
guided by the Human Resource (HR) systems which are represented
in the framework:
1. Recruitment, Selection, and Placement
(Recruitment and Hiring)
2. Results-based Performance Management System
(RPMS) - represented in the framework by the
PPST- aligned tools: Classroom Observation Tool
(COT), and Self-Assessment Tool (SAT), which
are used to
gauge teacher practices and better target
professional development and training.
3. Learning and Development (L&D) - represented
in the framework by the Learning Action Cells and
the Targeted Professional Development and Teacher
Training.
4. Rewards and Recognition (Rewards, Compensation)

Figure 1. The Teacher Professional Development Framework (Research Center for Teacher Quality 2018)
This framework shows that the PPST is not only intended to set expectations of teachers. It is also integrated into the
system, tools and processes of DepEd in order to ensure that it is seamlessly embedded in the teachers’ life. It is not an
additional requirement, but a guide towards personal and professional reflection and advancement.

Summary
• The Department of Education (DepEd) formulates, implements, and coordinates policies,
plans, programs, and projects in the areas of formal and non-formal basic education. It
supervises all elementary and secondary education institutions, including alternative
learning systems, both public and private; and provides for the establishment and
maintenance of a complete, adequate, and integrated system of basic education relevant to
the goals of national development.
• Based on DepEd Order No. 36, s. 2013, in order to promote “One DepEd”, the official
DepEd VMV shall be the only Vision, Mission, and Core Values adopted by all offices and
schools. As part of the Department of Education, teachers are enculturated into the DepEd
professional community in order to align professional practice to the common vision and
mission of the department.
• Republic Act No. 8491 states that our national Motto shall be “Maka-Diyos, Maka-tao,
Makakalikasan, at Makabansa.”
• As an agency, DepEd has a set of plans and actions to reach its vision. These strategic directions
are time-bound and are measured through strategic objectives.
• It is important for newly hired teachers to be familiar with and understand the DepEd’s
mandate, vision, mission, core values, and strategic directions so that they could align their
practices and professional goals with the department. This will help them better support
DepEd’s endeavors towards quality education. These could be demonstrated in how
teachers present themselves, how they respond to challenges in everyday teaching, and
how they serve as role models to their learners, inspiring them to be life-long learners and
productive citizens.
• Four career stages are articulated in the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers
(PPST). Each stage is constituted by particular professional practice that defines and
locates teacher quality within a developmental continuum.

Estimated Time required: 1 hour
Required Tasks
• Personal School Calendar
• Reading and Reflections

Required Resources
• Deped Order (No. 1, s. 1991)
Session 1 –
The DepEd
School
Calendar
Key Topic 1:
The DepEd
School
Calendar
The DepEd school calendar for
each school year sets the opening
and closing day of classes. It also
prescribes the number of school
days where learners need to go to
school, inclusive of the in-service
training for teachers, parent-
teacher conferences, and a
celebration of the World Teachers’
Day. As an example, you may see
D.O. 7 s. 2020, School Calendar
and Activities for School Year
2020- 2021.
The DepEd school calendar also
follows Republic Act 11480, which
is also known as An Act to
Lengthen the School Calendar
from Two Hundred (200) Days to
Not More Than Two Hundred
Twenty (220) Class Days.
The DepEd school calendar also
provides an enclosure of
implementing guidelines on the
school calendar. It also provides an enclosure for the
calendar of activities for the current school year to enable
schools to efficiently and effectively implement the
school events and school activities while being supported
by the regional office and the division office. Meanwhile,
the schools are allowed to observe local and national
celebrations provided that these activities are beneficial
to learners.

Alternative delivery modes or make up classes may be
undertaken to compensate for the unplanned suspension
of classes due to natural calamities. The President, in
coordination with the Secretary of Education and the
Department of Education (DepEd), may opt to set a
different date for the beginning of the school year.
Key Topic 2: Continuity of
Learning (A History)
At the height of the Gulf crisis in the Middle East, DepEd
Order (No. 1, s. 1991) ordered a system of continued
learning despite the apparent war. Its content clearly
specified that “the continuing education of the youth
remains the utmost priority.”1
The order also envisioned
mechanisms for home-based learning, utilization of self-
learning kits (both reinforcement and enrichment), and
application of various multimedia platforms.
While the Gulf crisis did not escalate as it was expected,
DepEd shows that it has the contingency plan in place in
case a disruption of classes ensues. Moreover, our
geographical location as a country makes us vulnerable
to tropical storms and volcanic eruption. These natural
factors directly affect continuation of the school calendar.
Hence, there is DepEd Order No. 43, s. 2012 that
provides a protocol for cancellation of classes according
to PAGASA’s weather bulletin.2
Another document,
DepEd Order no. 109. s. 2009, lays out the post-calamity
education set-up which gives provision for
1 Isidro D. Carino, “Deped Order (No. 1, s. 1991) –
Guidelines For the Implementation of the Education Sector
Contingency Plans for All Levels.” (Department of Education,
1991), 1.
2 Armin A. Luistro, “Deped Order (No. 43, s. 2012) –
Guidelines on the implementation of Executive Order No. 66
(Prescribing Rules on the
recovery of missed school days and provides guidance in
choosing appropriate modalities that can be used to fit to
a rehabilitating context.3
All of these important documents
show that the education department is serious in living
out its mandate to deliver continuous learning.
When the threat of the pandemic heightened, the
Department of Education (DepEd) temporarily
suspended classes and adjusted the current school term
in an effort to save learners, teachers, and school staff
from possible exposure to COVID-19. For months,
DepEd contemplated what to do and continued to plan
for the future. Eventually, in August Secretary Briones
announced that classes would continue in October. The
announcement came after numerous schools were
asking for different extensions and possible class
opening dates. DepEd opted to adjust classes by
introducing modules and the use of online video
conferencing applications such as Zoom.
DepEd also introduced its “Basic Education Learning
Continuity Plan” (BE-LCP) as its plan so learners are still
able to continue their learning despite any ongoing
disasters like calamities, pandemics, etc. There are four
important aspects to the plan: communication, materials,
learning activities and assignments, and assessments.
Communication involves ways of providing teaching
whether it be answering questions, discussion of a topic,
relaying instructions, or anything about the course.
Materials include the lessons, references, and other
things needed for learning activities. Learning activities
and assignments are activities that facilitate learning and
come in many different forms or done through a variety of
methods depending on the teaching style of the teacher
or what is specified by the lesson plan. Assessments are
methods to gauge a student’s progress.

Session 2: The School
Support System
Key Topic 1:
Schools and Learning Centers (LCs) serve as frontline
services of the department. These are accountable for
education and learner outcomes. Consistent with the
national educational policies, plans, and standards, the
school or learning center has the following functions:
• take accountability in achieving higher
learning outcomes;
• implement the curriculum and be accountable
for higher learning outcomes;
• provide equitable opportunities for all learners in the
community;
• develop an education program and
school improvement plan;
• create an environment conducive to teaching
and learning;
• lead and manage itself and its resources; and
• establish and manage linkages with stakeholders.
There shall be a school head for all schools and LCs.
The school head, who may be assisted by an assistant
school head, shall be both an instructional leader and
administrative manager. The school head shall form a
team with the school teachers/learning facilitators for
delivery of quality educational programs, projects, and
services. A core of non- teaching staff shall handle the
school’s administrative, fiscal, and auxiliary services.

Key Topic 2:
School- based
Management
(SBM)
The School-based Management
(SBM) is an initiative of the
Department of Education to
decentralize and empower the
school communities to enable
them to actively participate in
the continuous improvement of
schools towards the
attainment of higher
pupil/student learning
outcomes. With SBM, the
school is regarded as a key
provider of education. The
SBM empowers the school’s
key officials to make informed
and localized decisions based
on their unique needs toward
improving our educational
system (DepEd Memo (No.
386, s. 2009)).

Required Task 2: Scenario Analysis
To foster harmonious relationships with the wider school
community, it is important to involve learners, parents,
and other stakeholders in identifying and resolving issues
and concerns in the school community. Discuss how you
can help in each scenario and involve some key
personnel who can help you resolve the following
challenges.
Scenario 1
Teacher Lozano, the mother of one of your advisory
students, visited you in the school because of a bullying
incident that you are not aware of. She was very angry
and disappointed about what happened because the
incident was not addressed and resolved properly. Her
daughter is still afraid and decided not to go to school
that day. The incident happened during Science time
because the teacher was late to enter the class. You also
had other classes to attend to and had no chance to
meet your advisory class during that time. Who should
you seek help to?
Scenario 2
Teacher Mary Ann, a fellow teacher whom you consider a
friend, messaged you on Facebook and told you that she
will be absent tomorrow. She asked you to substitute all
her five classes. Without letting you respond, she already
sent you the learning materials for her lessons tomorrow.
However, you also have classes to attend and your
learners are expecting to deliver a performance task that
they prepared for. What are you going to do as a
colleague and who should you direct her to?
I would seek first the help of the
school guidance councilor regarding this
matter to identify what is the best way to
resolve the issue together with the
parents and the pupils involve. If the
problem is still not resolve, then it is the
time to seek the help of the school head.
I will honestly tell her that I also have
classes that I needed to attend. I will
advise her to message the school
head that she can longer go to
school, and she needed a teacher to
substitute for her so that the school
head would be the one to decide
whose teacher is available to look for
her class.

Scenario 3
Lito, the class president of your advisory class, was
elected as the president of the Supreme Student
Government (SSG). After three months, his subject
teachers are having trouble with his class standing
because of his frequent absences and non-submission of
required written and performance tasks. Lito is getting
overwhelmed with the various school activities he
manages. What are you going to do as the adviser?
Session 3 – Pre-opening of Classes Preparation
Key Topic 1: Preparations for
pre- opening of classes
Now that you have familiarized yourself with the DepEd
school calendar and the school support system, it is time
to get ready with the preparations for the pre-opening
of classes. Planning ahead for the opening of classes is
important so that you can efficiently and effectively
prepare for the school year. In this session, you will
determine how to get to know the school structure,
available resources/ equipment, etc. and set up the
classroom.
Your first year of teaching in the public school system
would probably be one of the most rewarding and
unforgettable experiences that you will have as a
teacher. Expect that you will have grounding
experiences, as well as a myriad of challenging
circumstances that will test your character. Hence, it is
important that before you prepare your classroom and
your lesson, you also need to prepare yourself physically,
mentally, and emotionally.
You can do journal writing to reflect on your teaching
practice. This will help you make wiser decisions as you
deal with your situations inside the classroom. In this
way, it will help you reflect objectively when untoward
incidents happen. Whenever you make mistakes or
failures, you need to be patient with yourself. Bear in
mind that your school head or head teacher considers
that you are a new teacher in the school and will
definitely give you the kind of understanding that you
need.
I will explain to Lito that I
understand his role as the President
of the Supreme Student
Government., that he has lots of
duties and responsibilities to full fill,
but I will also remind him that he
should not just focused on this, he has
still subjects that he needs to
prioritize. He should learn to balance
his duties as well as his academic
subjects to avoid conflicts on her
grades. I will advise him to create his
daily time plan so that he can full fill
both his duties without sacrificing his
academic subjects.

Key Topic 2: Getting to Know
the School Structure, Available
Resources/Equipment, etc.
As a new teacher, you must familiarize yourself with your
work environment. It doesn’t only mean knowing the
fastest way to get to your school, but it also entails your
knowledge in and out of the school. Below are general
tips in getting to know your school to start with your
professional journey as a public school teacher.
1. As a faculty member, you are expected to know the
different offices and units in your school, as well as
the designated teachers who run each office. You
also need to know the school’s tailored Teachers’
Handbook, which contains the rules, regulations,
expectations, and all other necessary information
that you need to know about your job in your new
school. Make sure that you read it thoroughly and
understand everything because you are expected
to observe all of them as you work.
2. The provisions written on the handbook are not the
only ones that are being observed in the school. As
you work every day, you will begin to recognize
casual rules and principles that the school follows.
Be able to notice them. Hence, gather as much
information as you can before the beginning and
during the first few weeks of the school year.
3. Know your school organizational chart. Introduce
yourself to your fellow teachers when you have an
opportunity. It is known to everyone that you are a
“newbie”, and probably you are shy to get along
with your new colleagues; but you have to
overcome the anxiety so that you can establish
rapport with your fellow teachers.
4. Get acquainted with safety concerns in the school.
In every school, there is a unit designated for
Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM).
You have to know the safety procedures for
emergencies, like when disasters occur during the
school year. You may need to know where the fire
exit is or where to lead learners when an
earthquake occurs.
5. Know the proper decorum in submitting paper
works or turning in reports.
6. Your breaktime schedule also matters, so early on
you may already take different options for spending
your breaktime. Bear in mind that teachers, both
seasoned and new, have their own way of utilizing
their break time. While most teachers use it for
eating, some teachers use it for rest, reflection,
checking learners’ outputs, doing paper works, or
speaking with colleagues. Whatever you choose,
make sure that you will be able to use your time
well and respect how other teachers use theirs.
Before you set up your room, you have to check the
available resources. In each school, the principals
allocate funds for supplies such as cleaning materials,
instructional materials, and other paraphernalia that may
be used in preparing the classroom at the beginning of
the school year. Should there be missing or insufficient
supplies or if damages are found, you must immediately
report it to the principal.

Required Task 1:
List down the different departments/offices/units in your school, and
write the corresponding people or personnel in-charge.

Key Topic 3: Setting up the
classroom
In setting up your classroom, you need to think about
how to arrange a learning environment that is conducive
and friendly. Take some time to imagine how the learners
would be sitting and how the classroom would appear
when the learners finally arrive on the first day. Make
sure that the image that you create is student-centered;
that means, the floor plan or layout actually allows
convenient movement for teaching and learning.
Examine the room and look around and find the things
that you can still utilize. Some classrooms already have
bulletin boards, cabinets, boxes for cleaning materials,
etc. You may decide if you will keep them or find a place
where it can be kept. Be reminded that whatever you use
in your classroom are recorded in an inventory of
physical equipment in the classroom, and it is usually
submitted during the beginning of the school year. Make
sure that you consider up to the smallest fixture in your
classroom.
When you arrange the chairs in your classroom, consider
the different types that you learned in college such as
traditional rows, rows of desks facing each other,
horseshoe arrangement, clustered seating arrangement,
fishbowl design, and so on. Your seating arrangement
may probably be adopted by other subject teachers.
Make sure that this arrangement is efficient and flexible.
Probably, you may consider a more stable arraignment to
aid you in familiarizing your new learners. Above all, free
your classroom from hazards that may disrupt learning or
may cause harm to your learners.
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced everyone to adjust
to the new measures of the “new normal” to ensure that
everyone stays safe. Physical classrooms have applied
the social distancing rule to the setup of the chairs in the
classroom and have also opted to schedule frequent
classroom disinfections. Some classrooms have moved
online to platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet.
Summary
• Preparing for the pre-opening of classes is
important so that you will be able to accomplish
your job effectively and reduce the possible stress
because of lack of preparation.
• It is important that before you prepare your
classroom and your lesson, you also need to
prepare yourself physically, mentally, and
emotionally.
• Learning your way around your new work environment
– your school assignment would allow you to work
efficiently within your designated workstation and
the DepEd system

Session 4 – Opening of Classes
Key Topic 1: What to do on the
First Day of Classes
First days are always exciting. It would help if you exude
confidence and positivity to do what is needed. To be
successful in your first day of class, you have to consider
the following:
• setting a good first impression to learners, co-teachers,
parents, etc.
• getting to know your learners; and
• setting rules and routines.
First impressions are important. Get the attention of the
class as you speak. Make sure that everyone is listening
to you. Project your voice in such a way that everyone
will hear and understand what you are talking about.
Make sure that you show your presence with authority
and openness to your learners. Most importantly,
establish yourself in such a way that your learners feel
that you care for their well-being, future, and their lives in
the school. Set a good first impression on your learners,
their parents, and your co- teachers. One tip is to practice
what you want to say to help you have more confidence in
class.
The best thing to do is to always come prepared. Make
sure that you spend time in preparing your lessons and
other tasks in school. This is your first year of teaching in
the public school, it is important to demonstrate
professional disposition and discipline in the discharge of
your professional duties.

Key Topic 2: Getting to Know
Your Learners
You will be meeting a lot of learners who possess unique
characteristics and personalities with varying learning
needs. Your first task is to get to know them by their
names, so make sure that you pronounce them correctly.
Although knowing your learners name is a preliminary task
as a teacher, remember that you also need to be
knowledgeable about your learners’ background.
Knowing this information will guide you to better inform
your planning on what appropriate teaching approaches
and strategies are best utilized to cater their learning
needs.
The most common way of collecting information from
your learners is by asking them to write it on an index
card or a sheet of paper. You may also use technology in
consolidating information through online forms and
surveys. Ask your learners to write their name and the
name they wanted to be called. On the succeeding lines,
ask the learners the information that you think will benefit
you in the future like in preparing and contextualizing
your lesson, addressing the student’s concern, or
contacting the parents. This information may include your
learners’ interest, hobbies, abilities, parents’ contact
information, and even the information that your learners
may not probably tell you face-to-face. Above all, it is
important to inform your students the purpose of
gathering their personal information. As professionals,
we must strictly follow the data privacy act as applied to
students and observe ethics in using this information.
At the beginning of the school year, you may ask the
learners to introduce themselves to you and to the class.
To make it successful, you should model how it is done.
Tell something about yourself that you think will matter so
that learners will get to know you better as a teacher.
Focus on what you want to accomplish with your learners
this year. Tell the learners what your class or subject is
all about and what are the
different activities that you will do in the coming days.
Spark a feeling of awe and excitement among your
learners, so that they will look forward to going to school
for the coming days. Emphasize that you will be with
them in this new journey. In this activity, maintain mutual
respect and interest. Games and icebreakers may also
be appropriate.
Key Concept 3: Setting Rules and Routines
Rules play a significant aspect in helping to define the
classroom situation. Rules are mostly based on moral,
personal, legal, safety and educational concerns. Sample
rules are presented below.
Sample Classroom Rules
1. Students should be in their
seats when class is about to
begin
2. Homework is due at the
beginning of the period
3. Textbooks are to be brought to class
every day
4. Raise your hand and wait to be
recognized before speaking
5. Be courteous and considerate to all
students and faculty
Source: Kottler, Ellen; Kottler, Jeffrey; and Kottler, Cary.
1998. Secrets for Secondary School Teachers: How to
Succeed in Your First Year. California: Corwin Press, Inc.

Aside from rules, your success as a teacher in
managing the classroom also depends on the routines
that you introduce to the class.
Some of these routines may involve entering and
leaving the classroom, having work checked, leaving
their chairs and moving around the classroom,
maintaining discipline and attention, changing
activities, catching up
on incomplete or missed work, activities for students
who finish work early, going to the toilet, using materials
in the classroom, and dismissal. It is a good practice for
teachers to go over some parts of the provided student
handbook to remind the students and to make sure they
are aware
of sections such as the rules and the punishment for
their violation.
Sample Classroom Routines
(for Elementary students)
OPENING ROUTINES
• Share One Word: Ask students to share one
word about how they are feeling that day.
• The Reading Minute: Find a passage online
or in a book—an excerpt of a poem, essay,
article, or story—and read it aloud. It might be
humor-
ous, interesting, angering, or beautiful,
exhibiting great writing. After you read it,
students open their notebooks and write either
a one-sentence summary to remember what
they just read, or a thesis statement.
CLOSING ROUTINES
• Rate the Learning or Lesson: This exit slip can
be accomplished in a matter of minutes. Ask
students to rate—on a scale of 1 to 10—how
well they understood the learning that day.
• Closing Statement or Question: Ask students
to first turn and talk in pairs or in a triad and
discuss questions such as: What did you
learn? What surprised you? What is unclear?
What do you want to know more about? Then
ask them to come up with a closing statement
or question about the content and write it
down.

a DepEd teacher; it would also enhance your
classroom management skills that would ensure a
safe and conducive learning environment for your
learners.
• For a short period of time, you will be meeting a lot
of learners who possess unique characteristics and
individual needs. As a teacher, it would be
beneficial if you model good behavior to your
learners.
• Rules play a significant aspect in helping to manage
the classroom situation.

Session 5 – Handling Advisory
Classes
Required Task 1: Introductory Activity
There is no playbook that sums up your task as a
classroom adviser. Apart from equipping young people
with knowledge, skills, and values to succeed in this
vastly demanding society, teachers must also strive to
build their morale. Learners who enter their classrooms
must discover how to believe in themselves, exert effort
to accomplish their goals, and persist despite all
challenges. It may be ambitious and daunting, but we
should always give them platforms where they can
express their ideas so they can shine in the most brilliant
way possible.
As you go over the activity, write your reflections below
by answering the questions that follow. Limit your
answers to all the three questions below into a maximum
of 600 words.
Guide Questions:
1. What is the role of a teacher to his/her learners?
2. How do you think are those roles manifested
in being a classroom adviser?
3. So far, how was your experience as a classroom
adviser?

REFLECTION
Teachers plays a significant role in the life of his/her learners. As a teacher, it is their responsibility to
bring out the best in their students and inspire them to achieve greatness. Students are thought to be the
nation's future, and teachers are thought to be a reliable guide for their progress. Teachers are
responsible for shaping their future, making him or her a better human being. A teacher’s presence in a
student’s life can boost their morale and guide them to be more valuable in life. Now that we are in the
modern era, the role of the teacher also changes. Teachers are responsible to bring the lesson to real-life
situations to encourage participation to the learners. Another very important part of the teacher’s role is to
monitor learner’s performances, assessments, achievements, and learners’ development. With all that
information the teacher will find easier to get to know the students properly and adopt different strategies
that ensure successful learning for all. The role of the teacher has no limit when it comes to ensuring the
welfare of his/her learners.
These roles of the teacher are manifested in the classroom by implementing it by the adviser in her
actions. Performing his/her duties wholeheartedly to all his/her learners.
My experience as a classroom teacher is challenging yet rewarding. I have learned that I need to
study effectively about classroom management. I realized also that each pupils have different learning
styles that is why I must provide varied activities in my lessons. They have diverse ways of learning that is
why it is very challenging on my part as a teacher. Because of this experience, they motivate me to be
strive my best to be an excellent teacher and continue my professional growth.

Key Topic 1: Being a Class Adviser
Being a teacher is both a privilege and a responsibility.
You will have the opportunity to meet students from
different experiences and backgrounds, and you will
definitely enrich your knowledge by celebrating diversity.
It is very rewarding for you as a teacher to recognize
your learners’ narratives.
Nevertheless, you may be designated as a class
adviser by the principal to manage a particular class.
As a class adviser, you are tasked to do important
assignments such as connecting to learners with
counseling, keeping school records and monitoring
attendance, doing homeroom activities, promoting
harmonious relationships and resolving conflicts,
capturing and maintaining learners’ interest, respecting
learners’ religious beliefs, maintaining a well-kept and
conducive classroom, accomplishing
and submitting reports on time and communicating
with parents.
As the classroom adviser, it is also your task to capture
and maintain your learners’ interest in school. Here are
some way to get the interest of the learners (pp 47-50):
1. Involve the learners.
2. Decorate your room.
3. Introduce your subject.
4. Instigate questions.
5. Inscribe thought-provoking quotes.
6. Introduce variety.
7. Integrate with other disciplines.
8. Incorporate carefully planned games.
9. Invite guest speakers and parents
to your room to share their real-life experiences.
10. Initiate correspondence.
11. Use multiple resources.
12. Include rewards.
Conducting Homeroom Activities:
As indicated in DECS Order 52, s. 1998, also
known as Guidelines on the Implementation of the
Revitalized
Homeroom Guidance Program (RHGP) and the
System of Rating and Reporting Student Performance
Under the RHGP, schools are empowered to conduct
a homeroom guidance program.
There is a guidance program handbook that is
reproduced for teacher use, but you may also craft your
own activities depending on the needs of the learners in
your class.
Login to your DepEd Learning Portal and see the
modules below. Choose ONLY ONE module to study

Key Topic 2: Connecting with
Learners
As a class adviser, you need to connect with your
learners. Apart from delivering your subject matter, it is
also important to make connections with your learners
and let them realize that what they learn in your class can
be used in real life. This will help you understand your
learners more and recognize where they are coming
from. It would be a good idea to note the information
gained from casual conversations with the learners
through the Anecdotal Records for future need. The
following are things to remember when connecting with
learners:
• Listen carefully without interrupting.
• Listen not only for what the student is saying but
also try to understand the meaning of the non-
verbal gestures.
• Stay neutral and do not judge the student, or trust
may be breached.
• Communicate with your body, face, eyes, your
whole being, that you are intensely interested in
what learners are saying.
• Show compassion and empathy in your manner
and style.
• Whenever possible, do not let yourself be
interrupted
or distracted when a student is confiding in you.
• Prove that you have understood what was said by
occasionally responding with reflections of feeling
and content that you heard.
• Avoid giving advice or telling learners what to do
with their lives.
• Make yourself as visible and accessible as you
can.

• If you must ask questions, do not interrogate kids; instead, ask
open-ended inquiries that encourage them to elaborate.
• Look carefully for signs of severe distress; if a student does
seem to be in danger of harm or abuse, you must report it to the
administration.
• At the end of a conversation, summarize what you
heard and ask the student to do the same.
• Make appropriate referrals to the counselor or other
professionals when a student could profit from such
help.
• Follow up on the conversations by remembering to
ask learners how they’re doing and what they’ve
done since you last talked.

Optional Task
Choose five (5) tips on how to connect with your learners and identify ways on how to apply this to your class:
Tips to connect with your learners
(Kotler, et. al. 1998)
How to apply to your class
Listen carefully without interrupting.
Let the learners share their opinions and let
them feel that they are valued.
Find common ground
By asking them simple questions like,
“What movies do you watch?”. This gives
you access to them in a new way
removing the walls in the classroom. This
bridge can provide access to their heart
knowing that someone cared for them.
Develop a Positive Classroom
Environment
Incorporate morning meeting time into
each day to connect with your students.
Provide a reward system and avoid giving
negative punishment instead focused on
rewarding positive behaviors.
Be consistent in your rules
Set your rules and follow them. Don’t show
favoritism. This creates disrespect in your
classroom.
Care
Care by showing acts of kindness, tapping
their shoulders, praising them and through
the tone of your voice when you speak to
them.
Even if you already do your job in an exemplary
manner, expect that there are learners in your class
advisory that need special attention. Kotler et al.
(1998) identify these kinds of learners (pp.60-61):
• The angry student looks sullen, with a chip on his
shoulder. No matter what you do, he will resist your efforts.
• The withdrawn student is certainly not a behavior problem; quite the
opposite, she may sit passively in the back of the room or even sleep with
her head on the desk.

• The quiet student just does not talk at all. He may
or may not be paying attention; you really cannot
tell. No matter what you do to try and draw him out,
he is so shy that he just smiles enigmatically.
• The student who is in over her head feels like she
is so far behind there is no point in even trying to
cooperate in class. She has given up all hope.
• The procrastinator continually plays games with
you. He always has excuses for why he does not
have his work completed. He may be wickedly
charming, but he manages to avoid doing much
that is useful.
• The addicted student is strung out on drugs or
alcohol. Her attention is, at best, fleeting. She sits
in the back of the room with a glassy-eyed stare.
• The overly social student is always flirting or
disturbing others around him. You stop him a
dozen times, but he does not seem to respond to
the corrections.
• The class clown may be motivated by either a
sense of humor or something more perverse.
Regardless of his intentions, he is constantly the
center of attention.

The list could be longer. There will be time that you may
feel discouraged and frustrated. Keep on exerting effort
to reach out to these kinds of learners. However,
remember you may not be able to help almost everyone
in your class.
It is said that all teachers are guidance counselors. You
are placed there to help learners in resolving their
personal issues that affect their academic life. Since
you are the teacher who has the closest contact to your
learners, you are in a position to know very well the
concerns that linger
among your learners. All in all, you have to be able to
show that you “care” about them.
Summary
• The class adviser is tasked to do important
assignments such as connecting with learners and
counseling, keeping school records and monitoring
attendance, doing homeroom activities, promoting
harmonious relationships and resolving conflicts,
capturing and maintaining learners’ interest, and
communicating with parents. You should be the
adviser who “cares”.
• Advisers are the assigned person to keep and
manage the school records of the learners that are
assigned to you. It is also a task of the adviser to
monitor the daily attendance of learners.

policies, guidelines and procedure

Session 1: Positive Discipline
in Physical and Virtual Learning
Environment
Key Topic 1: Establishing Safe and Secure
Learning Environment
Establishing a safe and secure environment for learners is
one of the important roles of a classroom teacher. As
classroom managers, you have the responsibility to provide
our learners with a learning environment that is free from
harm or risks to promote their well-being and support
their learning (Marzano & Pickering, 2003).You also have
to build their sense of community, improve academic
performance, and to prepare learners to be productive
individuals. Creating safe learning environments involve
every aspect of creating a positive experience for
learners. The physical space is one important element,
but equally important are the relationships between
learners, teachers, and the learning community as a
whole (UNHCR and IRC, 2010). Furthermore, in times of
disruptions that may necessitate emergency remote
teaching (ERT), reasonable protocols in virtual learning
environments must also be taken into consideration. In
virtual space, constructive relationships can be
developed by allowing the learners to have virtual time
out that is efficiently communicated with the learners and
parents/guardians as scheduled. The virtual time out may
allow the learners to be in their personal space in order to
cool down and reflect. With this, learners will do better for
their next online access in virtual space.
It is equally essential that proper behaviors must develop
within our learning environments -- both physical and
virtual. Thus, creating and reinforcing discipline in
classrooms or virtual learning spaces and maintaining
constructive relationships will further secure safe learning
environments for our learners.
Positive Discipline
Discipline is the practice of teaching a person to observe
rules or a code of behavior in both the short and long
terms. On the other hand, punishment is a penalty that
aims to control behavior through negative means
(UNESCO, 2015). As a teacher, you need to be
knowledgeable of ways on how to lead your learners to
exhibit positive behavior. Discipline is positive and
constructive because it involves setting goals and
conceptualizing constructive and creative solutions to
challenging situations. Every teacher should respect a
learner’s developmental level, their rights to dignity and
integrity, and their right to participate fully in their
learning.
Effective teachers should manage learner behavior
constructively by applying positive and non-violent
discipline, as anchored in the Philippine Professional
Standards for Teachers (PPST) under Domain 2, which
centers on creating an environment that is learning-focused
and in which teachers efficiently manage learner behavior
in a physical and virtual space. It has Strand 2.1.2, which
is to establish a safe and secure learning environment to
enhance learning through the consistent implementation
of policies, guidelines, and procedures. The use of
positive discipline ensures a learning-focused
environment and to encourage positive behavior and
motivate learners to feel good about themselves and the
decisions they make. With positive and non-violent
discipline, our learners will see a connection among their
behavior, the personal consequences, and the impact of
their actions to others. You may refer to the PPST
Resource Package 2.1.2.

Developing Positive Behaviors
The behaviors that you value and want to encourage
need to be known to your learners, and you need to
make a concerted effort to teach and strengthen these
behaviors. Some strategies that you can use to help your
learners learn positive behaviors include the following4,5
:
- Give positive statements.
- Listen carefully and help them learn to use words
in expressing their feelings, not destructive actions.
- Provide your learners with opportunities to
make choices and help them learn to evaluate
the potential consequences of their choices.
- Reinforce emerging desirable behaviors with
frequent praise and ignoring minor misdeeds.
- Model orderly, predictable behavior, respectful
communication, and collaborative conflict resolution
- Use appropriate body language – nod, smile,
and look directly at the student.
- Restructure the environment – remove objects
that invite misbehavior.
- Redirect behavior positively – for example,
when a student bounces a ball around the
classroom, “You can bounce your ball outside on
the playground where there is more space to
play.” On the other hand, in the virtual
environment immediately respond to the
student(s) unusual virtual actions or reactions by
calling their attention. Be mindful that your goal is
to encourage and redirect positive behavior
among the learners.
- Make connections - online learning is all about
making effective communication with the learners
as well as their parents/guardians both for
positive and negative development during online
classes, this can effectively done during town hall
meetings.
- Establish routines, rules and procedures and
student engagement to create an online
teaching and learning direction such as a
strategic pre- planned schedule of screen time
activities based on your lesson plan.

Read and analyze each scenario. Try to identify different methods of developing discipline among learners by answering the
questions after every case.
Scenarios Possible Answer and Points for Feedback
Case 1 : On Being Tardy
Rhea: I live a few kilometers away from my school. In the
morning, sometimes I have to fetch water and cook food for
my siblings before I can go to school. I have no money for
transport, so I walk to school. Learners in our school get late
slips when we don’t arrive on time. I don’t want to get too
many.
Rhea’s teacher: I have to make sure the children understand
that coming late to school is not acceptable. They have to
know that there are consequences for their tardiness. I
always give them punishment. Some of them are even used
to it. They just offer themselves up because they know I don’t
listen to any excuses.
What alternative/s to corporal punishment could suggest to
the teacher?
Giving corporal punishment is not a
solution to tardiness. Before giving
judgement to the student why do not ask
first why they are late. We can never
know what is causing a student to be
consistently late unless we ask them. Like
the situation of Rhea, she does not like to
go to school always late, but she is
compelled due to some of the reasons
that she has to cook food for her siblings
and no money for transportation. As a
teacher, we must be considerate to our
learners. They do not deserve all the
blame for being late instead we have to
show to the student that we intend to
solve this issue together and that they are
not alone. We can give them additional
time after the class to cope up with the
lessons that they missed.

Case 2: On Disruptive Behavior
Marcus: I am feeling good today. I am telling funny stories,
and everyone is laughing. The teacher tries to tell me to stop
talking, but I want to show everyone that I am not afraid. I am
tough and cannot be bossed around by a teacher.
Marcus’ teacher: I have to ensure that the class is well-
behaved. Otherwise, they will just get out of control and I will
not be able to teach. The learners will take over and other
teachers will laugh at me. I will put Marcus in his place by
embarrassing him publicly. I will make an example out of
Marcus so that learners will not dare to show disrespect by
making noise in my class.
What alternative action/s could you offer to the teacher in
order to promote positive discipline?
Embarrassing Marcus in front of the class
is not the best solution to discipline him, it
could either worsen the situation or make
him more aggressive to fight back. What
the teacher could do to promote
positive discipline among this learner like
Marcus is to identify why the pupils
behave like this, sometimes students
misbehave because, they have
problems at home and the school is their
scape place to forget their problem. The
teacher can talk to Marcus privately and
explain his misbehavior in a calmly
manner. Tell him the rules and regulations
of the class and the consequences of
the action they made. If Marcus is the
type of student who needs attention
then involve him to group tasks and
make him the leader of the group,
through this simple act Marcus will feel
that he is part of the class and will learn
to collaborate with her classmates.

Case 3: On Giving a Wrong Response to a Question
Clark: I am so nervous in class. I am afraid that the teacher is
going to ask a question when I don’t know the answer. Even if
the answer is obvious, sometimes when the teacher looks at
me, I can’t speak. I become scared and just remain quiet. I
know everyone is staring at me and laughing, but what can I
do? I
just can’t risk giving the wrong answer. Even in tests, I feel so
afraid and always fail because I don’t know how to answer
the questions. I just don’t understand anything that is being
taught, and I don’t want to be laughed at. The best thing is to
stay quiet or just leave that question blank on the test.
Clark’s teacher: This boy is insulting me by not paying
attention. How many times have I taught this thing? Is he not
listening? I am tired of trying hard when a student in a class
does not care. Last week, he failed the test and now he
doesn’t even know the answer to this simple question. I am
going to reprimand this boy so that everyone will learn that
when I teach, they have to pay attention. They should know
the right answer before I ask the question!
What alternative action/s could you suggest in order to
promote positive discipline?
Not all learners learn the same way,
that’s why teacher should be aware of
the individual differences of the learners.
The behavior of Clark in the class wherein
he always gives wrong answer doesn’t
mean he is not paying attention, but he
doesn’t understand the lesson. This
makes him afraid to participate in the
class because he thought that his
classmate will laugh at him. How the
teacher could help Clark is by giving him
a remedial lesson after the class. Talked
to him what he did not understand in the
lesson and give him remedial activities to
further understand the lesson.
Embarrassing the pupils in the class when
giving wrong answer will cause the
learners to be discouraged to learn or go
to school.

Case 4: On Absenteeism
Elna: Sometimes my mother sends me to sell things at the
market and I can’t go to school. Sometimes I feel bored on
the way to school and visit my friend instead of going to
school.
Sometimes I don’t like being in a class where the teacher always
asks me questions and looks at me in a funny way. I know
that I am not going far after the 2nd
year High School, so
what’s the point? I might as well do what I want.
Elna’s teacher: We can’t have learners missing class
whenever they want. Her case should serve as an example
so that
her behavior doesn’t spread. In the morning assembly, I will
reprimand her, and give her a final warning. If she doesn’t
listen, she will be recommended to drop out of this school.
We can’t have learners undermining authority at this school.
What alternative action/s do you suggest in order to
If the students lack the interest in going
to school maybe there are reasons
behind this. Like the situation of Elna
wherein the teacher is the reason why
Elna don’t want to go to school
anymore. The behavior of the teacher of
Elna is very unacceptable, she should be
the one to treat her pupils in a nice way
and not to judge her, it is her job to make
her students feel safe in the classroom
and not to discourage them to go to
school. She should be the one who need
to change her treatment to her pupils,
reprimanding Elna with her behavior and
giving her final warning is not the right
solution because this only proves that the
teacher does not care with Elna.

Case 5: On Bullying
Kurt: I am the toughest boy in this school. Everyone fears
me, and I need to make sure that no one gets away with
undermining my status. I keep others’ respect by showing
them what might happen if they don’t fear me. I tease small
girls, and sometimes rough up an annoying boy. Everyone in
school knows not to cross me. They know my father is tough
at home and I am tough at school.
Kurt’s teacher: This boy is a problem. He is making other
children miserable and giving our school a bad name. Today
in assembly, I will announce to all learners that we do not
tolerate such behavior. I will send him to the guidance
counselor. I will warn him that if he persists, we will expel
him from school.
What alternative action/s do you suggest in order to
If the teachers observe bullying in the
classroom, he/she need immediate action
to stop it. The first thing he/she might do is
to talk privately to the pupils who bully
his/her classmates, ask him/her why he is
doing it. Let your students know how
people are affected by bullying and the
consequences of bullying others at
school. If the first action is not affected,
then seek the help of the parents and the
guidance councilor and discuss the
solution to the problem.

Case 6: On Adaptability Struggle
Janelle: Online learning is new to me. I am used to face to
face classes. I will inform my teacher that I can not attend
online classes regularly and I can not submit my
requirements on time.
Janelles’s teacher: This student may just be making an
excuse for not attending our online classes and not
submitting on time. As their teacher, I need to be able to
communicate to my class that I will not tolerate complacency
and that this rule must equally and strictly apply to all.
Due to Pandemic, school had to shift from
face-to-face to online education. Sudden
and unprepared students were forced to
study online, and this caused anxiety and
stress to students. What the teacher could
do is to be considerate with the situation
of the pupils. Provide them enough time
to submit their requirements. Always
encourage them even a short phrase,
“You can do this”, statement.
Acknowledge them that everyone is
going through challenging time. If Janelle
cannot really access to online learning,
then the teacher should give Janelle other
options wherein she can continue her
study.

Case 7: Technical Issues
Allen: I really wanted to pass the subject, attend our online
classes on time and learn our lessons well. But because of
my poor internet connection and I am only using a mobile
phone, it is difficult for me to catch up with the discussions as
well as with the required tasks. Everyone is doing a great job
except me. I think I should just drop out from school.
Allen’s teacher: I noticed that Allen is having difficulty with
internet connection since he keeps signing on and off during
our online classes. If this continues, there’s no way for him to
understand our lessons as well as other students in the
class. However, I have to treat my students equally to avoid
favoritism. I should not give him special treatment
promote positive
If Allen could not cope up to the lesson
due to poor internet connection, then
the teacher should provide him printed
materials that are aligned with their
lessons so that he can still cope up with
their lesson and not left behind by his
classmates.

Key Topic 2: Reinforcing Positive Discipline
While punishment is a single act, positive discipline is a
process that recognizes and rewards appropriate
behavior. Positive discipline is something that could be
developed on a day-to-day basis. This process is
effective for individual children. Moreover, for teachers
who are working in large classes, it can also be effective
for groups of children. The key is to make the children
feel they are on a “winning team”
(the class as a whole) and to praise each child’s efforts in
being a good team member. The core of positive
discipline is to catch learners doing the right thing and
reward them immediately.
The following are statements that could be believed in by
some teachers, but were labeled as myths on disciplining
learners (UNESCO, 2015, 14-18).
Statement Remark
1. “It happened to me and
did no harm.”
“People who use this argument often do it to reduce the guilt they have for using
corporal punishment on their children today. In their minds, they are defending their
violent actions against their children.”
2. “Nothing else works!” or
“They asked for it!”
“The problem is the disciplinary approach, not the misbehavior of the children.
Justifying that a child has asked for violence is really intended to make the
perpetrator feel less guilty and transfer the blame to the victim.”
3. “Corporal punishment
works best. Other
methods don’t.”
“Corporal punishment creates a sense of distrust and insecurity in the child, it
destroys the teacher-child relationship. Children become angry at why someone who
is supposed to teach and care for them is instead threatening, beating, or insulting
them.”
4. “I only do it as a last
resort. I had no
choice!”
“This argument is not acceptable; besides, it is quite common for parents and
teachers to result in physical punishment at the first instance not as a last resort.”
5. “It’s the only way I can
control the children in
my class. I have too
many!”
“This excuse is common among teachers who face large classes. It usually arises
because the classroom has no set rules or routines; the children do not know what
is expected of them and the consequences for misbehaving; and the teacher did
not take the time to build a positive relationship with the children.”

The following are statements that could be believed in by some teachers in a virtual environment. Sambolt (2020)
suggest the following on how to design positive reinforcement systems online.
Statement Remark
1. “Group reinforcement
can not be applied in
an online class.”
“Though there might be limited time to devote to reinforcement systems,
encouraging positive group behavior during online classes is rewarding together
with individual reinforcement systems to engage the learners.”
2. “Positive reinforcers are
costly and difficult to
administer.”
“There are positive reinforcers that have little cost or no cost which require minimal
time and effort to administer. As a teacher, you need to devote time to effectively
select the type of positive reinforcers appropriate to your online class setting. For
example, social reinforcers can be done by giving praise or verbal recognition to the
learners during online activities and praise for the submitted tasks on time. Another
example is the activity reinforcers, which can be done by assigning highly engaged
learners to monitor chat questions or by allowing the learners to have breakout
sessions in unstructured time to discuss among themselves about a specific topic in
the lesson.”
3. “I can stick with
one type of
positive
reinforcers in my online
class.”
“Learners find different types of reinforcement motivating. To ensure that all learners
engage in an online class, provide a variety of layers of reinforcement such as praise
and token systems.”
4. “When I plan online
activities, I do not
need to consider
the learners.”
“Positive reinforcement in a virtual environment requires the students’
understanding. In order to gather students input, the teacher may use group
discussion, chat box and online polling. ”
5. “The learners in an
online class do not
need rewards.”
“To increase the motivating reinforcement system among learners, the teacher can
provide progressive rewards through a badging system. The teacher may provide
badges to activity which can be done both in synchronous and asynchronous
classes. With combined badge systems the learners are motivated to spend more
time to finish the assigned tasks and develop self regulation to complete
asynchronous assignments. ”

Optional Task: Reading
Read the Seven Principles for Constructive Child Discipline, pp. 93-96 of

there was an on-going group activity
for his learners. Most of the pupils
were quiet except for this one group
wherein two pupils were talking about
unrelated topics loudly, disrupting the
other groups. He approached them
and with a soft voice he said to them,
“It seems that you forgot our rules
during class activities, just wait until
our class is finished and see what
happens then”. The two suddenly

Required Task 3: Quiz
A. Positive or Negative: Determine each teacher’s action if it signifies positive disciplinary action or negative disciplinary
action.
Actions Answers Feedback

pupils without any intervention
made.
5. Using physical force
NEGATIVE Corporal punishment is not a
solution to any misbehavior of

the child protection policy.

Summary
Discipline shapes learners’ behavior and helps them to
learn self-control when it provides encouragement, not
painful, meaningless consequences (UNESCO 2015, 21).
You should use classroom discipline positively by
believing in your learners’ abilities and communicating
affection and respect for them. When you are willing to
observe your learners and respond in ways that
encourage positive behavior, you help them become
responsible for their own behaviors and they reduce the
likelihood of misbehaving in the classroom.
An effectively managed classroom is the one that
motivates learners while creating and supporting positive
behaviors. In order to do this, you need to make sure
that:
a. Your expectations are clear.
b. Instruction is interesting for your learners.
c. Your learners see a purpose and value to what
is being taught.
d. Instruction relates concepts and skills to a
learner’s experience and is meaningful within his
or her daily life.
e. Your teaching strategies are varied. Learners
can become bored, even if the topic is
interesting, if you constantly use the same
teaching methods.

Required Task 3: Quiz
True or False. Write TRUE if the statement used positive discipline, or FALSE if it did not.

consistently, and equitably.
TRUE This is a strong indication of creating a
well- organized classroom
management.
2. Ma’am Carol believes that it is a
waste of time to devote time in
teaching self-monitoring skills.
FALSE Teacher must continuously develop
learners self-monitoring skills and learn

3. Teacher Michael ensures that he
maintains instructional pace of
his lesson for the day and
makes smooth transitions
between activities.
TRUE This gives retention to the lesson on
pupils.
4. Monitor classroom activities
and give learners feedback
and reinforcement regarding
their behavior.
TRUE Giving feedback and reinforcement
to learners encourages them to study
well and actively participate in the
class
5. Evelyn makes sure that there
would be one item in her
quizzes that would be very
difficult for learners to answer
in order
to discriminate the very good
learners from the rest.
FALSE Teacher should give fair assessment to
his/her pupils in identifying average
and below average learners.

Session 2: Positive Relationships
Optional Task: Learn from Others
Key Topic 1: Building Positive
Relationships with Learners
Positive learning communities and relationships
contribute to a great extent to learners’ engagement in
face-to-face or virtual classroom activities. Indeed,
relationships are key-- which includes teacher-to-learner
and learner-to-learner interactions. To build a positive
relationship with your learners, you should know the
importance of understanding and empathy. Some of the
conditions that are especially important in encouraging
positive learner behavior as part of the relationship
building process are:7
- Maintaining a positive emotional tone in the
classroom.
- Providing attention to the learner to increase
positive behavior.
- Providing consistency in the form of regular
routines for daily activities and interactions to make
unexpected, negative experiences less stressful.
- Responding consistently to similar behavioral
situations – both positive and negative.
- Being flexible, particularly with older learners and
adolescents.
- Treat mistakes as lessons. Tell your learners that
we only learn by making mistakes.
- Building confidence. Promote positive self-talk.
- Focusing on past successes.
- Making learning meaningful. Modify your instructional
methods.

Required Task 2: Checklist
What practices should be done by teachers to build good relationships with learners? Put a check (/) next to the
statements that reflects good practice and an “X” mark if otherwise.
Statements Answers Feedback
1. Interacting respectfully and sensitively
are only important to elementary school
learners. /
Respect and being sensitive to
the needs of the learners are
important in the classroom.
2. Treating the learners kindly and
respectfully in the classroom is enough
to bolster academic achievement. /
This give equal opportunities to
all learners to learn in the school.
3. Taking no notice of relationships during
the teaching and learning process.
/ In the classroom pupils should
learn and treat fairly regardless
of the relationships of the
teacher and some learners.
4. Awareness of explicit and implicit
messages given to learners is
important.
/ Promotes an increase in strategy
use and in oral proficiency
5. Modelling behavior to learners,
whether intentional or unintentional,
is important.
/ Be a good role model to your
learners whether they see or not.

Key Topic 2: Maintaining Trust
and Fairness in the classroom
Some of the characteristics that learners appreciate in a
teacher and their co-learners, and should form a core
part of monitoring our own behaviors, are:8
Fairness Learners see this as the most
important trait of teachers. It
means being fair in activities such
as making assignments, settling
disputes, giving help, and
choosing learners to be assistants
or to participate in special
activities.
Humor The ability to respond
lightheartedly to learners.
Respect This involves showing regard for
the rights and feelings of learners.
Courtesy This is another sign of respect.
Openness Learners need to relate to their
teacher. The teacher needs to
explain clearly his or her feelings
and the circumstance that caused
the feelings.
Active Listening This means being attentive and
responding when a learner
speaks. You need to show that
you have heard the learner and
to give him or her a chance to
correct a misunderstanding or
interpretation. You might try re-
stating what has been said or a
use of body language to show
empathy.
These characteristics may model to learners how they
would also interact with each other. This would enhance
learner-to- learner relationships.

Summary
• Building a good relationship with your learners will
help you ensure positive student behavior and
discipline. Thus, an effective educator who foster
positive relationships with their learners creates
classroom environments more conducive to
learning and meet learners’ developmental,
emotional and academic needs.
• In order to maintain trust and fairness in the
classroom, teachers should always bear in mind the
characteristics that learners appreciate. These
characteristics should form a core part of monitoring
our own behaviors: fairness, humor, respect,
courtesy, openness, and active listening. Modeling
these characteristics to learners. also positively
reinforces good learner-to- learner relationships.
