REFLECT

Reflect on the various routines observed.

1. Which of the routines will you most likely apply in your class? Why? Why
not?
Based on the procedure I witnessed in class, I will most likely use the
following:
a. Morning Prayer - I feel that it is an essential approach to begin the
lesson. I also want to instill in my kids the importance of prayer in order for
them to be directed by the Almighty God in their studies.
b. Recording Attendance- I need to keep track of my pupils' attendance
and identify those who have been absent from class. It also helps me
recall my pupils' names and recognize their faces.
c. Technology use - Since digital literacy is a 21st-century talent that
students must acquire, it is essential to include technology into education
to help pupils improve their digital abilities.
 d. Homework helps children practice what they learned and develop their
independence.

REFLECT

Reflect on the various classroom rules set by the Resource Teacher. Will
you have the same rules? If not, what rules are you going to employ?
Explain your answer.
My Resource Teacher established some guidelines for my
classroom, and I will unquestionably follow them since I have observed how
responsible and orderly the children are with their behavior. They show respect,
and more significantly, they don't engage in behavior that is prohibited in the
classroom. They were able to properly learn the teachings as a result. According
to my perspective as a teacher, following these guidelines will make it simpler for
me to control my class and successfully accomplish the learning objectives.
