Activity 3 Interview of the School Teacher

Visit the school in the community which you surveyed. Interview a teacher.

Questions:

1. What schools activities do you conduct that allow the participation of the

people in the barangay?

2. Are the community activities that you, as a teachers join? Please name. Do

your learners join also these activities?

3. What learning do your pupils/students gain from the participation?

4. What does the community benefit from joining in your school activities?

5. As per your observation, are the lessons that you taught in the school

transferred to the homes or the community?

Before I go to school to interview teachers, I visited barangay and I talked to

appointed secretary of the barangay. He said, that the school and the barangay
officials met to discuss the school activities and community activities. And as the
conversation goes on, he give me a short briefing about the barangay Sta. Elena in
connection to school.
I interviewed two teachers from JMAMES, teacher Tess she is handing SPED
classes in school and teacher Meriam she is handling Grade 1 regular classes.
According to the teachers, JMAMES have different activity that allows participation
of the community such as Brigada Eskwela, it is annual activity of every school. It
permits the parents to help in cleaning the school to promote solid waste free
school. Rendering to their statement, some parents used to pay than giving hard
work in cleaning. Though it is not a bad idea, parents must involve their selves in the
activity. The progress of this does not reflect to the teachers but to the parents, their
support to their childrens education. The community also participated in schools
celebration such as Nutrition month, the school and the community promote good
nutrition for everyone. They had programs which corresponds activities for
students and parents. As a teacher, they both participated in community activities
such as during Barangay Fiesta and Sports Festivals. They train students to join
academic activities (such as slogan, poster making, and quiz bee) and non- academic
activities (such as singing and dance competitions). Teacher Tess highlighted that
activities in the community allows students to be competitive enough to join in the
competitions involve, this have a benefit in students development and also to
unwind them in the school stress. And also the Clean and Green program in the
community. As well as in the school activities community expected to join, as they
stated. Teacher Meriam once said Bilang salong ina reponsibilidad ta na
supportahan an activities sa eskwelahan ta alam na ang bawat activities may goal
para tuwangan ang lambing salo kaya bilang maestra masasabi kong dai kaming piga
gibong plano para sana maging eroplano. Her avowal explains the importance of
joining in the school activities. How can school change society? School main goal is
to educate people with good moral character and established activities to develop
individual. Simple participation of the parents in the school activity has a great
impact in their children such as they feel that they are important to you as their
parents. They both observed that their learners have a meaningful learning as they
practice their learnings in home.
The interview goes well done. That chance to talk to them is such an
experience. Even they are busy doing students grades they allow me to conduct an
interview.

My Reflections/ Insights
After making a survey of the barangay and interviewing the teacher, answer the
following questions:
1. How do you feel about the participation of the school, teacher and learners in the
celebration of the barrio fiesta?
I am happy that they both participated in the activities they implemented. Such as
the school help the community in exchange the community supports the activities in the
school. As we took an interview survey in the barangay, it was a little bit challenging.
Because we dont know really how Sta. Elena going although I am near in the place, I
have never been in touch to them since I dont have any friend living at the barangay but
to the active members in the church I think I am familiar to them, I join at their choir at
the meantime when I was young.
Barangay Sta. Elena do have many household, involving the students who was
staying in the boarding houses. They are rich in establishments such as Century Family
Mall, Land Bank, Computer shops, Salons, Finance Corporation, Dental Clinic, Inn,
Restaurant and Sari- sari stores. The Old Capitol was also built in barangay Sta. Elena. I
can say that this barangay is not just rich in people but also economically. They also
have agricultural resources such as crops, trees but for each household only. They dont
really have a farm but as I observed some houses had vegetables planted.

2. How does the view of the people in the community improve the teachers status?
In personal view, it helps teachers to know what their wrongs they did. In this
way, the teacher may change her attitude to be highly accepted by the community. In the
teachers status, view of the people in the community help teachers status improve
maybe with the help of giving good feedbacks to the teacher. By means of this any
institution may accept his/her application for his/her good performance. And also some
barangay gives remark such as certificate to the teachers whom help them in their
activity and this will serve as a credit to them to keep going towards the high position.
For example last summer I join the immersion given by the Eve Gates Salon, we do free
haircuts for men and women. My former teacher in Science also participated in the same
activity. In every barangay that we engage, He always asked for the certificate in the
Barangay Captain. And there he told me the importance of being active in the
community as a teacher. One thing I think of is that maybe in the sense of teachers
status in the community. If the teacher always join and supports community activities of
course the people will admire his/ her kindness.

3. What realization that relates to your becoming a teacher, have you gained from your
concrete experiences and observations in the community?
Teachers must know about everything and must practice it in everyday life. Some
parents do seldom misinterpret the teachers decisions and actions toward some
situation, thats why conflict arise. I realized that a teacher must involve herself in the
community since school is a part of the community. A teacher must always practice her
professional attitude in or outside the institution. The teacher does not only educate
people inside classroom but therefore gives extra effort to educate people with attitude.
Attitude is the key in every success, thats why each individual shall possess the good
characteristics and the teacher is their role model.
As a future teacher, I was inspired by both teacher Tess and teacher Meriam for
their passion and dedication in school as well as in helping the community. Theres no
greater than a teacher can do. A teacher possess a magical power that ignites the losing
light of an individual. And I assure everyone cant forget the experiences they had with
teachers.
