Reflection quarter 2

We've become busy since the 2nd quarter arrived. Everyone of us became busy not because of our lessons, but because of extra-curricular activities. It is actually stressful, there was a time where I thought to myself that this is too much. Too much work, to much activities, and too much extra-curricular activities. But then I realized, as I continue my blogs, I find peace within myself. Not only the blogs, but the things I like to do in class. I missed a lot of lessons, but I willed myself to learn and to catch the lessons that I have missed.

In our subject, the ICT, actually we did not discuss much. Our teacher just introduced us the HTMLs, but as she give out activities of html, I understand the lesson. Just the activities, I find myself learning in a faster way. It is just like a self-review, where the teacher just give activities and  it is up to you to understand the lesson.

At first, it was hard for me because I just really do not care at that time, but as time goes by and our teacher give more activities, I find myself enjoying every bit of it.

This is why I willed myself to learn new things and be amazed that I never stop learning.

This is my reflection for the second quarter.

Teachers' Month Celebration

A Best Day for the Best Ones

There was a saying that, "Once you stop learning, you start dying." there is no such thing as not learning, because everyday of every minute, we learn something new, be it the birthday of your crush, a new lesson, new discoveries and many more. But, we all know that we will not be nurtured if not because to our teachers that sacrifices their time and sweat to teach us, to nurture us.

A good teacher is the person who is treated as most respected person in a student life due to his unconditional effort and support for shaping and making his academic career and future bright and successful. A good teacher plays an important role for making his student personally a good human being along with bringing his academic career into right direction so a teacher reserves the place in his student’s life above than their parents.

Teachers are the real fortune maker for a student, a good teacher always try to do his best for his student’s success and thus student can never pay the debt made by his teacher for making him a successful person in life.

In the Philippines, this years Teachers' Month Celebration has a theme, "Gurong Pilipino; Handa Sa Makabagong Pagbabago." During the month-long celebration, all public and private schools, schools district offices, schools division offices, and regional offices are enjoined to follow the synchronized programs, projects, and activities. Schools are likewise encouraged to conduct special activities, such as on-the-spot poster making, essay writing, thank you card design, and cultural performances, to enable learners to express gratitude for their teachers.

We should give our best to thank and make our teachers that they are special in every hearts of the students, not only the students but all the people in the world for their teachings and word of wisdom that theu give every single day. They deserve the best of the world because they are the best teachers not only in the Philippines but to the Universe.

A best teachee should not be treated poor because they are like queens and kings, they should be treated right, should be thanked, and should be the best in any way.

That is why we need to give them a best day. The best day for the best ones, OUR TEACHERS.

They also conducted a Zumba dance for the teachers and the students who are selected to dance. A fun bike where the students, teachers and people who registered get to bike early in the morning. 

Intramurals allow students to develop psychomotor skills and fine-tune motor skills with coordination, movement, strength, dexterity, grace, and speed, and also find healthy outlets for energy. If one student is sports-oriented, it provide a healthy pastime to help students refrain from various vices such as drugs, smoking, drinking, and spending excessive time on electronic devices. Most importantly, teach the value of teamwork and sportsmanship. 

This are the importance of having intramurals in a school. In a school where everyone has the right to play freely but not to the extent where they are not able to attend this classes. Intramurals are implemented for students who are sports-oriented.
