A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
Lord, let me be just what they need. If they need someone to trust, let me be trustworthy. If they need sympathy, let me sympathize. If they need love, (and they do need love), let me love, in full measure. Let me not anger easily, Lord but let me be just. Permit my justice to be tempered in your mercy. When I stand before them, Lord, let me look strong and good and honest and loving. And let me be as strong and good and honest and loving as I look to them. Help me to counsel the anxious, crack the covering of the shy, temper the rambunctious with a gentle attitude. Permit me to teach only the truth. Help me to inspire them so that learning will not cease at the classroom door. Let the lessons they learn make their lives fruitful and happy. And, Lord, let me bring them to You. Teach them through me to love You. Finally, permit me to learn the lessons they teach.
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
I am a young educator I am committed to being a True Leader That is from this day forward, My choice is irreversible I fear not the unknown, I will do whatever it takes. I will stand firm And hold my ground in the face of sacrifice, Not hesitate in the presence of challenges, Not back on the field of battle Or allow popularity to interfere with my purpose. I will set an example, be the example and lead by example I will not look left, nor will I look right, for I will always look up I will never settle for less than the best that I am. My integrity and honesty will never be compromised I will be true to my own convictions Whistle my own tune through my own lips And march to the sound of my own drums I have committed to being…. A true leader because I am to become a Teacher!

A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
WVSU- ECHC Historical Background
Article II, Sec.17 & of the 1987 Constitution provides that the state shall give priority to education, science, technology, arts, culture, and sports to foster patriotism and nationalism. Accelerate social progress and promote total human development. Specifically, Article XIV, Sec.1 also states that the state shall protect the right of all citizens to quality education to all levels and shall take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all. The absence of tertiary education in the city caused a temporary resettlement of college students to other municipalities and cities. Because of this, it has been observed that only those who are financially capable can finish college. Another reason is the distance of the municipality or city that offers tertiary education which can be found in Binalbagan or Kabankalan City. This situation resulted to a high rate of out-of-school youth. The City Mayor, Hon. Carminia G. Bascon, the City Vice Mayor, Hon. Luz R. Bayot and SP Member are aware of this problem, thus, on August 11, 2005, the City Mayor requested the chairman of the education committee, Mr. Roslyn Toreta, City Budget Officer Roberto Segovia, City Accountant Efren de la Rosa and the City Treasurer Caroline Castro to attend a meeting with the WVSU Officials headed by Dr. Lourdes Arañador and Dr. Henry J. Andora. Initial plans were discussed during the meeting. This plan was represented to the Board of Regents meeting, but the first attempt was a failure because the proposal was disapproved by the Board of Regents. However, the City Mayor appealed for the second time. Again, the City Mayor requested Dino Yulo, SP Member Gerardo Gamposilao and Mr. Roslyn Toreta to attend the meeting of the Board of Regents. The appeal was granted. So, the Legislative body passed the resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign

INTRODUCTION
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
The apex of all the Experiential Learning Courses is the Practice Teaching. It is the total immersion of the prospective teacher in the real life of becoming a teacher. During practice teaching, the pre service teacher experiences the rudiments of teaching in a cyclical process of planning, actual teaching and evaluating learning. The pre-service teacher, who may be called an apprentice, or student teacher intern, walks the whole process of teaching with the mentor, who is called the cooperating teacher. Here the pre-service teachers put into actual practice all that were learned in the content and theory courses, strategies or methods of teaching as well as put into test pedagogical content knowledge acquired in related courses prior to Practice Teaching. As the last field study course, the practice teacher should be given all the opportunities to bring out the best of every prospective teacher. This is necessary in the mastery of the competencies needed as clearly spelled out in the National Competency-Base Standards for Teachers (NCBTS) and CMO 30, s. 2004 and its regional adaptation. To achieve this goal, Practice Teaching should be a collaborative effort of the Teacher Training Institutions where the content and strategy courses are first learned ad the cooperating schools of the Department of Education where much of the Practice Teaching experiences take place. Where learning environment has extended beyond the classroom alone, the demands of the diversity of learners are great, he complexity of learning becomes very challenging, and the role of the teacher has extended to a global community, the Practice Teaching component of the new Teacher Education Curriculum has achieved a new dimension. The suggested content ad activities in the syllabi are guide for teacher educators and practice teachers. The resource materials are presented as handy examples for all stakeholders. All of these can be modified, enriched, expanded or improved to suit the different context of the teacher education program.
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
As these maybe different modalities I the delivery of Practice Teaching in different institutions like in-campus and off-campus arrangement, or all incampus, the syllabi shall serve as guide. However, it should be assured that competencies achieved through this course should match those of the NCBTS and CMO 30, s. 2004.

Serafin Gatuslao 1902 mobilized the Himamylanons to establish the first Himamaylan Public Primary School in the Poblacion from Grades I – IV. The School building was of light construction materials and erected in front of the present school sight where the permanent building is actually located now. It is assumed due to non-availability of records that the Himamaylan Central School started its operations for many years, from 1901 as a Public Municipal Primary School Grades I – IV only. No records are available to support the date of the first opening of the Himamaylan Central School Intermediate School (Grades V – VII). Based on the 1947 Souvenir Program of the Himamaylan Town Fiesta dated April 1947, the following names are the Teachers listed in the Program on file at the Mayor’s
Office. These teachers taught on the later part of the Spanish time are:
Tomas Barrios
Rafael Alvarez

Top 6 Teacher Tasks What Teachers Do
By Melissa Kelly, About.com Guide
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
What do teachers really do? Every task that teachers perform falls under one of six categories. Many states such as the state of Florida use these and similar categories when observing teachers. They truly are a great way to organize your thoughts and systems around teaching. Following are the six teacher tasks with information and tools to help you grow and enhance your day-to-day teaching experience.
1. Planning, Developing, and Organizing Instruction
One of the most important parts of teaching takes place long before the teacher begins any lesson. Planning, developing, and organizing instruction are a major part of any teacher's job. If a teacher is effective at planning their lessons, they will find that their day-to-day teaching tasks are much easier. Unfortunately, many teachers do not have the time to truly create effective and unique plans for their classes. This is especially true if they are teaching multiple preps. However, every teacher should attempt to upgrade a couple of lessons each semester. This will help keep them and their material fresh.
2. Housekeeping and Recordkeeping Tasks
For many teachers this is the most annoying part of teaching. Time has to be spent taking attendance, recording grades, and following through on all necessary housekeeping and recordkeeping tasks. The way that a teacher handles these tasks says a lot about their classroom organization skills. With effective and easy-to-use systems in place, teachers will be able t o spend more time focusing on actually instructing and interacting with their students.

3. Managing Student Conduct
Many new teachers find that this are of teaching is what scares them the most. However, a couple of tools if properly used can really help you create an effective classroom management policy. These tools include posted rules combined with a posted discipline policy all of which are consistently and fairly enforced. If you are not fair or do not follow through with your posted policies, you will have a very hard time keeping a well-managed classroom.
4. Presenting Subject Material
Once the planning is done and students are sitting in class waiting to be taught, a teacher is at a critical juncture - how will they actually present their subject matter. While teachers typically decide on their main mode of delivery during the planning phase, they will not actually implement these methods until they are face-to-face with their class. There are important tools that all teachers should have in their teaching arsenal no matter which method of delivery they are using including verbal clues, effective wait time, and authentic praise.
5. Assessing Student Learning
All instruction should be built around assessments. When a teacher sits down to develop a lesson, they should begin by determining how they will measure whether the students learned what they were trying to teach. While the instruction is the meat of the course, the assessments are the measure of
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
success. Therefore, it is important that teachers spend some time creating and refining valid assessments for their students.
6. Meeting Professional Obligations
Every teacher must meet certain professional obligations depending on their school, their district, their state, and their area of certification. These obligations might range from something as mundane as hall duty during their planning period to something more time consuming like participating in professional development opportunities required to get recertified. Further, teachers might be asked to sponsor a club or chair a school committee. All of these require a teacher's time and are a required part of a teaching career.
Top 10 Tips for Classroom Discipline and Management
By Melissa Kelly, About.com Guide
Classroom discipline and management causes the most fear and consternation in new teachers. However, classroom management is a skill that is not only learned but practiced daily. Here are ten tips that can lead to successful classroom management and greater discipline in schools. These tips can help you cut down on discipline problems and leave you with fewer interruptions and disruptions.
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
If you would like additional information, check out this step-by-step look at how to handle discipline problems with effective classroom management.
1. It's Easier to Get Easier
Many teachers make the mistake of starting the school year with a poor discipline plan. Students quickly assess the situation in each class and r ealize what they will be allowed to get away with. Once you set a precedent of allowing a lot of disruptions, it can be very hard to start better classroom management and discipline techniques. However, it is never tough to get easier as the year goes on. While you don't have to follow the adage, "Never smile until Christmas," it does have its merits.
2. Fairness is Key
Students have a distinct sense of what is and what is not fair. You must act fairly for all students if you expect to be respected. If you do not treat all students equitably, you will be labelled as unfair students will not be keen to follow your rules. Make sure that if your best student does something wrong, they too get punished for it.
3. Deal with Disruptions with as Little Interruption as Possible
When you have classroom disruptions, it is imperative that you deal with them immediately and with as little interruption of your class momentum as possible. If students are talking amongst themselves and you are having a
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
classroom discussion, ask one of them a question to try to get them back on track. If you have to stop the flow of your lesson to deal with disruptions, then you are robbing students who want to learn of their precious in-class time.
4. Avoid Confrontations in Front of Students
Whenever there is a confrontation in class there is a winner and a loser. Obviously as the teacher, you need to keep order and discipline in your class. However, it is much better to deal with discipline issues privately than cause a student to 'lose face' in front of their friends. It is not a good idea to make an example out of a disciplinary issue. Even though other students might get the point, you might have lost any chance of actually teaching that student anything in your class.

5. Stop Disruptions with a Little Humor
Sometimes all it takes is for everyone to have a good laugh to get things back on track in a classroom. Many times, however, teachers confuse good humor with sarcasm. While humor can quickly diffuse a situation, sarcasm may harm your relationship with the students involved. Use your best judgment but realize that what some people think as funny others find to be offensive.

6. Keep High Expectations in Your Class
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
Expect that your students will behave, not that they will disrupt. Reinforce this with the way you speak to your students. When you begin the day, tell your students your expectations. For example, you might say, "During this whole group session, I expect you to raise your hands and be recognized before you start speaking. I also expect you to respect each other's opinions and listen to what each person has to say."

7. Over plan
Free time is something teachers should avoid. By allowing students time just to talk each day, you are setting a precedent about how you view academics and your subject. To avoid this, over plan. Write additional activities into your lesson plans just in case your main lesson runs short. When you have too much to cover, you'll never run out of lessons and you will avoid free time. You can also fill up any left over time with mini-lessons.
8. Be Consistent
One of the worst things you can do as a teacher is to not enforce your rules consistently. If one day you ignore misbehaviors and the next day you jump on someone for the smallest infraction, your students will quickly lose respect for you. Your students have the right to expect you to basically be the same every day. Moodiness is not allowed. Once you lose your student's respect, you also lose their attention and their desire to please you.

9. Make Rules Understandable
You need to be selective in your class rules (no one can follow 180 rules consistently). You also need to make them clear. Students should understand what is and what is not acceptable. Further, you should make sure that the consequences for breaking your rules are also clear and known beforehand.
10. Start Fresh Everyday
This tip does not mean that you discount all previous infractions, i.e. if they have three tardies then today means four. However, it does mean that you should start teaching your class each day with the expectation that students will behave. Don't assume that because Julie has disrupted your class everyday for a week, she will disrupt it today. By doing this, you will not be treating Julie any differently and thereby setting her up to disrupt again (like a self-fulfilling prophecy). Read a personal example of this with my best teaching experience.
Top 6 Keys to Being a Successful Teacher
By Melissa Kelly, About.com Guide
Here are the top six keys to being a successful teacher. Every teacher can benefit from focusing on these important qualities.
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
1. Sense of Humor
A sense of humor can help you become a successful teacher. Your sense of humor can relieve tense classroom situations before they become disruptions. A sense of humor will also make class more enjoyable for your students and possibly make students look forward to attending and paying attention. Most importantly, a sense of humor will allow you to see the joy in life and make you a happier person as you progress through this sometimes stressful career.
Humor in the Classroom 2. A Positive Attitude
A positive attitude is a great asset in life. You will be thrown many curve balls in life and especially in the teaching profession. A positive attitude will help you cope with these in the best way. For example, you may find out the first day of school that you are teaching Algebra 2 instead of Algebra 1. This would not be an ideal situation, but a teacher with the right attitude would try to focus on getting through the first day without negatively impacting the students.
Positive Attitudes 3. High Expectations
An effective teacher must have high expectations. You should strive to raise the bar for your students. If you expect less effort you will receive less effort. You should work on an attitude that says that you know students can achieve to your level of expectations, thereby giving them a sense of confidence too. This is
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
not to say that you should create unrealistic expectations. However, your expectations will be one of the key factors in helping students learn and achieve.
Creating an Academic Environment 4. Consistency
In order to create a positive learning environment your students should know what to expect from you each day. You need to be consistent. This will create a safe learning environment for the students and they will be more likely to succeed. It is amazing that students can adapt to teachers throughout the day that range from strict to easy. However, they will dislike an environment in which the rules are constantly changing.
Consistency and Teaching 5. Fairness
Many people confuse fairness and consistency. A consistent teacher is the same person from day to day. A fair teacher treats students equally in the same situation. For example, students complain of unfairness when teachers treat one gender or group of students differently. It would be terribly unfair to go easier on the football players in a class than on the cheerleaders. Students pick up on this so quickly, so be careful of being labeled unfair.
Fairness in Teaching 6. Flexibility
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences
One of the tenets of teaching should be that everything is in a constant state of change. Interruptions and disruptions are the norm and very few days are 'typical'. Therefore, a flexible attitude is important not only for your stress level but also for your students who expect you to be in charge and take control of any situation.
What Teachers Do When They are Not With Students The Inspired Classroom

1. Rubber Band: It reminds the teachers that they have to be flexible. Things don’t always go the way we plan. But flexibility will help to work it out. 2. Band Aid: It reminds the teachers that sometimes we do more than teach. That we help heal hurt feelings, broken dreams, and lend an ear to a problem. 3. Pencil: It reminds us to be thankful and we should list our blessing daily. But also encourage our students to list their blessings and to be proud of their accomplishments. 4. Eraser: It reminds us to allow students to know we are human and make mistakes just like they do, and it’s ok. We must all be able to learn from our mistakes. 5. Chewing Gum: It reminds us to stick with it and encourage our students to do likewise. Even the impossible task or assignments can be accomplished by sticking to it. 6. Mint: It reminds us and our students we are worth a mint. We may not be paid a mint, but are worth one. 7. Candy Kiss: It reminds us that everyone needs a hug, kiss, or warm fuzzy every day. All teachers, students, parents and even administrators. 8. Tea Bag: It reminds us we need time to relax, go over our blessing, and take time for others. Family, husbands, wives, friends, children need quality time together. 9. Toothpick: It reminds us to look for the good qualities in our students. You may be the only teacher who says something positive to them that day.

SUMMARY OF MY OFF CAMPUS
The first day I stepped in Himamaylan Central School it was November 12, 2012 and I was assigned at Grade IV-1 with my cooperating teacher Mrs. Mary Jane T. Desierdo and I can’t explain what I feel and the first time that I entered the Grade IV-I room I don’t know what to do but the time that I introduced myself it lessen the nervous that I felt and I started to communicate my pupils and luckily they are all respectful and not that hard to handle and im proud to stay that all my pupils are intelligent and talented. Education is the best foundation in the organization. Being a student teacher is not that easy because you have to deal different kind of personality and attitudes of pupils but what important is that you love your passion and understand your pupils and treat them equally. Pupils gain their knowledge how the way we teach them and the way we impart it to them. But there is also difficulty in dealing them because there are some paying attentions and some are hyperactive and what is important is that I know how to lengthen my patience and knows how to choose the words that I must say towards them so that it could not degrade them. As days passed by I used already how to deal with them and use some techniques that could catch their attention and despite of those circumstances I learned to love my pupils. Circumstances made me grow and believe that is part of being a future educator and I learned a lot from these circumstances which cannot be get in any printed materials. Through the aid of my cooperating teacher I surpass all of these adversities working with my pupils and also I got some words of inspiration that I can be apply in my future career and here I learned how to fill up the Deped forms and how to deal with my pupils and to be a responsible student teacher and to be a effective and efficient teacher in the future. Time management plays a vital role. As a future educator I can really say that we should know how to value our time because if not we will crumple. Being punctual
A Narrative Report of My Off-Campus Experiences also is important because we become role model to our pupils which they can be follow and it is not that good that you are going to school late and so what impression could make by your cooperating teacher and pupils. Being time manager is one attitude that any educator or future educator should possess. Also preparation is one of the best weapon in everyday of going to school so that you can deliver your lesson well and ready in every task that your cooperating teacher will assigned you. It was February 7, 2013 at exactly 1:30 in the afternoon it is the scheduled of my final demonstration. The afternoon until the last minute prior my demo was the most exhausting and unbearable moments of my life, I convinced myself and bring a self confidence to deliver my lesson well in front of my superiors as my evaluator, I was worried and perspiring to what comments will my evaluators give. But I was really glad that I passed that obstacle despite the hardship I encountered and the most that made me happy is that when my evaluators congratulates me and it made me smile. And the comments and suggestions of my evaluators were very useful and helpful for me because it gives me some hint to what should I improve. I must say that “Experienced is the best teacher.”
Finally I could say that I grew professionally with the help of my cooperating teacher and all of my pupils. My four months of practice teaching in Himamaylan Central School had made me become a well prepared learning catalyst. One who is willing to carry the purpose of education and face the real crisis of education. And so, I could say that Himamaylan Central School is the best training ground for student teachers. With all the learning I had learned from this practice teaching, I come up with this idea in my mind. What causes learning in the learner is the development of a particularly deep relationship in which the learner opens himself to internal transformation under the influence of the catalyst.-the teacher.”
