TEACHING PRACTICE
Procedures of Teaching
January 18,24 & 25 2019
The day has come were I need to teach. It was a mixture of happiness and tension. On my first day and second day of teaching, I decided to wear a Muslim traditional outfit: Hijab, Long skirts and long sleeves. As a future elementary teacher, it is part of me to motivate my students to wear their traditional outfit. As a teacher, I must be there role model not just through competency-based and through their spiritual belief. Our religion will never be the barrier to understand and develop and teacher-student relationship. I always came to school before 7 o'clock in the morning to participate the talent development.

During my teachings, I always started my class by preliminaries such as asking them to arrange their chairs and tables so that the classroom will be conducive place from learning and it also helps them to be more focus and attentive to the teacher. After that, we will pray according to our beliefs. before I start my lesson, I always give motivation to get students' interest. The motivations I did was to let thim sing such a 10 Little Indian Boys, Head, shoulders, knees and toes; also I taught them a Filipino song which is Ang Tatlong Bibe. Luckily, everyone in the classroom participated and sing the song at the same time dancing.
After motivational activity, I already started to discuss the lesson. Everyone were active and participative all throughout my discussion. I'm so lucky to be their teacher. All of my students are polite and thoughtful.
Time Management and Organizing Activities
Everytime I teach, I always assure myself that I am bounded in time and everything must be followed. Therefore, whenever I gave activities, I always tell them the minutes that they just have to finish it in a short time span. In order for that the other activity wouldn't be compromise. I gave my students activities such as for pair, by group and individual works depending on the competency that must be attain. There are times were I extend time because my pupils are not yet done, yet everything is in control.

Problem Solving
After giving the students formative assessment such as tasks that is by group and by pair, I still give them summative assessment to measure students' learning. This summative assessment is to see students' learning .

Note: Perfect scores ahead!
Classroom Management
In my class, I have 28 cute students. Children are children, sometimes they become rowdy and noisy. Before I start my teaching I set rules, like "When I said, Look at Me", the pupils will answer "Look at you". Sometimes i will say "Hi" and they will say "hello", through that I get the students attention. I always do this whenever the students are not paying attention when I am teaching. And also, to motivate them participate in my discussion, everytime they answer to my question the whole class will give him/her a different kind of claps either very good clap or angel clap. This claps will help them motivate them to participate on the discussion at the same time become attentive.
