Diversity of Learners

Learners come from different upbringings in life but are brought together by one goal - successful future.

An atom consists of different subatomic particles - proton, neutron, and electrons each having distinct charges. A school is just like an atom that is also composed of diverse types of learners with different characters, gender, interests, sexual orientation, religion, and cultural backgrounds. To be honest, this factor is what I'm most afraid of because dealing with diverse types of people is very crucial. 

However, as a teacher, it is my responsibility to meet them where they are and guide them toward a successful future. Every student is unique and can bring something new to the table. Diversity is beauty.

Use of Differentiated Intructions

The PowerPoint presentation I utilized with audio-visual material

The use of realia, lab equipment, printed materials, television, and PowerPoint presentation during classroom instruction

During my classroom instruction, I always make certain that the instructional materials I use cater to the students' multiple intelligences. For students who prefer modern technology, I use television and PowerPoint presentations; for students who learn best by watching and listening, I use printed materials and audio-visual presentations. For bodily-kinesthetic students who want to perform an activity, I also use realia and lab equipment, and I even let my students draw during group activities.

By doing this, the needs of all students with different learning styles will be addressed inside the classroom.

Dealing with diversity: Sipocot National High School Family Day

My advisory class during the Family Day Celebration

Served as the host of the Family Day celebration

Students with their parents participated in the fun games and activities

This SHS Family Day was a successful celebration of student and parents diversity. As a student-teacher, I was able to take part by hosting the event. The event also includes a talent show performed by families which showed me that every student is talented and has something to offer.

This event taught me that, despite their differences, students can come together when they are having fun. This is an epiphany that I bring with me every time I walk into class. Every student should appreciate and celebrate their differences.
