My Map
To reach your target, do the following tasks:

1. Observe two or more learners of different abilities but from the same
grade or year level.
2. Find out some information about their background.
3. Observe them as they participate in a classroom activity.
4. Write a narrative report and a brief reflection on your experience.

My Tools
Use the activity form provided for you to document your observations.

An Observation Guide for Individual Differences

Read the following carefully before you begin to observe. Then write
your observation report on the space provided.
1. Observe the class to see the differences in abilities of the learners.
2. Try to identify the students who seem to be performing well and
those that seem to behind.
3. Validate your observations by asking the teacher about the
background (family, socio-economic, presence of some learning
disability, etc.)
4. Observe the behavior of both the high achieving and low-achieving
learners. Note their dispositions, pace in accomplishing tasks,
interaction with teacher, and interaction with others.
5. Observe the teacher’s method in addressing the individual learning
needs of the students in his/ her class.

Observation Report
Name of the School Observed: Labangal National High School

Address: Labangal, General Santos City

Date of Visit: September 2013

The students who performed well in the class that I was observed are
those who are seating in the front row. Some of the students come from average
family and above average family in terms of socio- economic status. The
methods and strategies that I will remember in the future to ensure that I will be
able to meet the needs of both the high and low achievers in my class are
encourage learners to share their personal history and experiences,
communicate high expectations to students from all sub-groups, adopt to the
students’ diverse backgrounds and learning styles by allowing them personal
choice and decision making opportunities concerning what they will learn and
how they will learn it.

My Analysis

1. Did your observation match the information given by the teacher? Were
you able to correctly identify who among the students performed well and
who did not? What behavior helped you identify them? (Volunteering to
answer, responding to teacher’s direction, etc.)

My observations match the given information given by the teacher when the
teacher told us the socio-economic status of the students and their way of living
which is one of the factors that affect the learning of the students. I was able to
correctly identify also who among the students performed well and who did not
because of the way they behave and interact in the class discussion.my
observation was proven by the way they present their ideas and respond to the
teacher’s direction. Those active learners aggressively participated in the
discussion and raise their hand while the slow learners are quietly seating at the
back and wait their name to be called but they also try to participate.

2. Describe the differences in ability levels of the students in the class. Is


there a wide gap between the students who are performing well and those
that are not?

Yes, there is a wide gap between the students who are performing well and
those that do not. This is because those students that are performing well are
really a keen observer and really behave well and participated in the class while
the slow learners do the opposite

3. Describe the methods used by the teacher in handling the students’


differences in abilities. How did the students respond to the teacher?

Teacher used collaborate approach in handling the students differences in


abilities. She used it for the student to have the chance to share idea with other
classmates to improve their speaking ability and self-confidence. The students
respond to the teacher by participating in the activity.

My Reflection

1. Recall the time when you were in the elementary or high school. Recall
the high and low achievers in your class. How did your teacher deal with
differences in abilities? Was your teacher effective?

As I recall the time were I was in the elementary grades, there were really
high and low achievers in our class before. Some of my classmates respond
easily while others do not. From my grades 1-6, I have been with these learners.
I knew them since we’re in one class. Some of us are very naughty but the
teacher handles us through discussions, review, and oral participation.
Sometimes, the teacher conducts groupings/ group activity. I found my teacher
before as an effective one because I was able to learn in the way she teaches
us.
