The pandemic has changed our lifestyles to a great extent. From spending most of our time outside the house to shifting to the inner sanctums of our home, we have witnessed a drastic change. Indeed, Negative effect on mental health is a sudden rise in cases of depression that has led to traumas, frustrations, loneliness, boredom and anxiety for many individuals including our learners . The school has been a basic foundation of skills. Through collaboration with the school heads, A project DIG which refers to Dish Indigenous Garden is proposed. In this particular project, High School learners are trained skills on how to manage planting using limited space. Thus, Dish Garden is the best project to entrust to the learners. Dish Garden is a pleasing arrangement of several different plants in a single container. The container can be almost any shape or size and may be made of most any material. Dish gardens are especially valuable because they can be easily placed at various vantage points throughout our home. The project aims to input the beneficiaries with skills and knowledge of dish gardening, provide hands-on learning for distressing and monitor its continuity practice. Though it is such a challenging scenario, a garden in dish can bring recreational, mental and physical, economic and environmental benefits and at the same time it also helps boost learners mood and focuses on the positive perception of life. Ultimately, no matter how space you have, growing plants is a great way to care for mental and physical health during quarantine.

Project Title:                       Project PART (Parents as Para-Teachers)

Date of Proposal:               August 26-27, 2021

Project Time-frame: 2 days Proposed Venue: Google meet

The role of parents is very important, especially in the aftermath of the pandemic, which altered all of our habits and norms. From face-to-face classes, we have undergone a sudden shift in education wherein distance learning has become the new normal, specifically modular distance learning. This gave teachers limited contact with their students, which turned out to be one of the biggest challenges we are facing and continue to find a solution for, because, as DepEd Secretary Leonor Briones stated, "Learning must continue." As a result of this challenge, teachers needed the solidarity and support of parents more than ever before because they play one of the most important roles in today's pandemic.

 

Furthermore, parents play an important role as learning facilitators and para-teachers, providing learners with instructional support as needed in the absence of a classroom teacher. As their children's first teachers, parents are also the most important factors in their prior life achievements. When parents and children collaborate on educational activities, their attachment grows because they can spend more time together. In such cases, parents can become a source of comfort by easing their children's pain and worry, as well as engaging in conversations with their children to help alleviate their anxiety. It has been suggested that parents be taught how to provide emotional support to their children during times of uncertainty (Wang, Zhang, Zhao, Zhang, & Jiang, 2020).

Moreover, parents are vital in their child's overall development and education. Aside from meeting their children's basic needs and educating them, parents nurture them by providing love, attention, support, and fundamental understanding. Similarly, they serve as a child's primary and continuing educator prior to formal schooling and continue to be an important influence in their children's learning in school and beyond. As a result, parents and families are regarded as educational partners and supporters of their child's education.

 

Given these reasons, as well as the various studies and research cited, the proponent proposed this project because she believes that it is only right that each parent should know their duties as a para-teacher. The Project PART, or Parents as Para-Teachers was formed so that parents can better understand their vital role in the academic growth and development of their children. Likewise, it aims to answer various questions on how they can play their roles in a way that will greatly benefit their children. This project will not only provide clarity about their roles as a para-teacher but will also provide a clearer perspective when it comes to teaching their children.

Basic needs like pencils, pens, paper, and textbooks help learners engage in lessons, as they gain knowledge, they can bring back to their community to improve overall welfare. It aids school performance, helping children to overcome instability and identify as learners. Having equipped for the module days also helps them feel confident in their ability to function in the classroom. If you were to donate school essentials such as folders and pencils, learners could more easily turn their focus to learning. According to study, student self-esteem improved when students had the school supplies, they needed. If preparation is the key to success, having critical classroom tools can make the all the difference. Many cases of learners lacking success in their studies have to do with students’ level of preparedness. Having something as simple as writing utensils and paper are things that can determine the progress and achievement of the student. School supplies impact the success of the student in ways that most people fail to recognize. In fact, many students are never truly prepared for the day because they come to class lacking supplies, thus leading to a difficult time learning. That said, school supplies play a very important role in education and how students grow and develop, as we discuss below. With the abovementioned statement, the proponent felt the need of partnering with potential sponsors who will provide school supplies to the GIS learners. Thus, School Supplies Mo, Sagot Ko project was conceived.

Flowers' importance in nature is everywhere—they provide natural medicines for humans and some animals; and they can feed insects, birds, animals and humans. Without flowers, plants would merely be green, and the world would be a duller place. This time of pandemic brought emotional negativities in most people and flowers give a feeling of happiness and it gives positive energy. Through this positive energy the chances of suffering from stress-related depression are decreased. Positive emotions help put life events in a broader perspective and so lessen the negative effects that may result from negative emotions. Positive emotions such as gratitude, hope, empathy, joy, love, pride, calmness, surprise and awe can all be associated with flowers. The Deped released the UA MEMO 00-0521-0171 – Back to School: Let a Million Flowers Bloom Project. This id to prepare the school for its upcoming opening. Flowers will also give positive vibes and hope to the community in times of pandemic. The proponent tapped the parents in preparing the school by cleaning the campus and planting ornamentals. Bougainvillea, zinnia, vietnam rose, gumamela, sunflower, are just some of the flowering plants that are planned to be included in the roosters of ornamentals.

One of the most important educational outcomes of the primary education is to learn how to read. It is a fundamental ability to children’s learning including the development of their literacy skill. According to Diamond (2006), an effective reading program develops reading competence in all learners and is based on proven practices. On the other hand, “It takes a village to educate a man” as what the popular adage say. This is true especially in this time of pandemic. This is why the proponent sought the help of potential partners in heightening the reading skill of the struggling readers of Guelew Integrated School. To ensure that learning specifically reading will take place, only trained volunteers were requested to assist in this innovation. The reading materials were provided as well as the schedule and matrix to follow. The said activity started on August 2, 2021 and ended on September 30, 2021.

Educators around the world have quickly adapted and switched teaching from physical to the virtual classroom. The lockdown was imposed from March 15, 2020, and we as educators didn’t get much chance to prepare ourselves for a complete switch to online classes. But despite this, administration and teachers are putting in their best efforts to deliver their digital classes making it interesting and motivating to students.

Students are already missing their classroom learning working with peers in groups. Even parents are now finding it more difficult to motivate their children to maintain the pace of learning.

To help students overcome this unexpected situation and to ensure continues learning of students using different alternative channels, supporting them in various ways by technical and financial assistance, selection of digital learning tools, arranging online classes and creation of positive learning online environment.

The project “Load Mo, Sagot Ko” aims to help students in their online classes by giving them weekly load worth of thirty pesos (Php30.00) to thirty (30) Grade – 12 learners of Guelew Integrated School as the beneficiaries. The load will be given every Wednesday in preparation of their online class every Thursday for four (4) months.
