An Observation Guide for the Learners’ Characteristics

Read the following statements carefully. Then write your observation report on the
provided space.
1. As you observe the class, look into the characteristics of the learners. Note their
ages.
2. How many boys are there? How many girls?
3. Focus on their behavior. Are they already able to manage their own behavior?
4. Can the learners already work independently?
5. Describe their span of attention. Look into their listening skills and ability to
concentrate

Name of the School Observed: Sagay National National High School

Location of the School: National highway, Sagay City
Date of Visit:

We are assigned to the mixed grade 9 and grade 10 Cookery students class under
Ma’am Genelie Godienes. Most of the students aging from 15 to 16 years old were
appropriate to the level that they were taking of. To calculate, there are 36 girls in the
class and 5 boys in grade 9 and 1 boy and 24 girls in the grade 10- carnation.

The students are able to manage their own behavior however they can easily get
influence by their peers or seatmates. Yes, the students work independently because
they are responsible and mature enough to work on their own.

The span of students’ attention depends on how the teacher motivates the
whole class. If the discussion is interesting and the students can relate into it,
they tend to actively participate in the discussion.

An Observation Guide to Classroom Visit

Be guided by these questions as you do your observation of the classroom management.
It is good to ask the teacher for additional information so you can verify your observation.
Write your notes below.

1. Are there areas in the classroom for specific purposes (storage of teaching aids,
books, students’ belongings, supplies, etc.) Describe these areas.

Yes. There are areas in the classroom for specific purposes like a cabinet

and the proper keeping of the kitchen tools and utensils.

assignment monitors, warm-up activities, etc.)? How are they done?

The teacher starts with a prayer. Then the students greet their teacher.
When she had given assignment she monitors it and that serves as their
attendance.

The class is noisy but they are handled well by Miss Godienes. Her tactic is to get
the attention of student who is very loud then warn her/him to keep quite.

Whenever the learner is not following instruction, the teacher will repeat the
instruction and reconstruct it to make it more understandable.

master her lesson. She uses the best strategies and methods to make his/her students
participate well in her class. She is a passionate teacher because she teaches her students

Our Analysis
1. How did the classroom organization and routines affect the learners’ behavior?

The classroom organization and routines affect the learner’s behavior. By the
leaners behavior in a sense that it serves as a guide for the students on how to
manage their task and it also serve as guide for them to change their attitude
because they know that their teacher is monitoring their behavior.

2. What should the teacher have in mind when she/he designs the classroom
organization and routines? What theories and principles should you have in mind?

The teacher should bear in mind when he designs the classroom organization
and routine, the effects of those to the learners, what would be the outcomes of
those things if it is effective or not. I guess the theory of John Dewey which is the
experimental learning or the learning by doing. By this theory we can help ur
students to work or learning independently, because not all times we have a
companion to do our task, they should face the world independently without
depending to others.

3. Which behavior strategies were effective in managing the behavior of the learners? In
motivating students? Why were they effective?

The effective strategy in managing the behavior of the students is the recitation or
the students centered strategies so that the students will be attentive the discussion
and will focus their attention to the lesson, so that if the teacher will ask a question
they will not be afraid to answer.

Our Reflections
1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade/ year level
do you see yourself? What routines and procedures would you consider for this level?
Why?

We imagine ourselves teaching in the secondary level. Similar to others, we

will do the same routines which are very applicable in our students. The routines that
we will consider for these level are the following: first, I will start my class with an
opening prayer; praying so that my students will participate and cooperate in our
class, secondly, we will check their attendance; for us to know who are absent and
late, thirdly, by asking our students about the previous meeting discussion, then
asked them to give a brief explanation from the previous topic. And lastly, we
proceed to the new topic. After the discussion we will give them a short quiz to
determine who among the class understand the lesson clearly.

2. Make a list of rule you are likely to implement in this level. Why would you choose
these rules?
Come on class on time, follow the rules and regulation inside the classroom, wear
proper uniform, no cheating on exam. We choose these rules to discipline the students and
to be responsible and to have a discipline to their selves.

3. Should learners be involved in making the class rules?

Yes, the learner should involve in the class rules so that they will be aware
of the do’s and don’ts inside the classroom, and to make them know their
limitation when they are inside the classroom.
