Provide a narrative observation report on how teachers are using constructivist

teaching and learning in their classes.

Subject: Araling Panlipunan

Topic: Sinaunang Kabihasnan sa sya

Observation:

The teacher gives a clear information and provides a concrete example that
are easy to understand by the students.

Reflection:

Write your reflection by completing the following statements.

I realized that:

An ancient civilization is a topic that can help students understand the world
better. When ancient civilizations are linked to humanities and social sciences, for
example, students gain a better understanding of the economic and political similarities
and differences between cultures, people, and the environment. Also The
Mesopotamian and Indus Valley civilizations provided us with basic technologies that
we steadily improved on. They also created the fundamental architecture that we see
today in our buildings, art, and clothing. These extremely successful civilizations had a
massive impact on modern-day Earth.
I believed it is essential to:
To all the students for them to aware and understand on what is essence of having our
ancient civilization because these ancient civilization is the one who help our country
improved , so we people must appreciate all the effort that ancient people did.
From now on, I am determine to:

I am determined to guide and assist students’ knowledge and skills as they

continue to gather and collect information and ideas that would be found in the
environment, either in creative way and meaningful way that would be added to their
existing knowledge and leads to synthesize the whole part of learning.
