Audio clips  primary channel for learning is hearing. The better learner can hear, the more they can learn. The goal of audio lessons is to enable every child to clearly hear all the speech components of the teacher’s voice no matter where a child is. 

We do not need sophisticated gadgets to convey right information to our learners. We just need innovations.

BUGO NHS TEACHERS FIND WAYS TO INCREASE MENTAL RESILIENCE

 Planting Helps One's Mental Health

PLANTITOS AND PLANTITAS are trending now. The Bugo NHS teachers also revive their passion for plants. Indeed, they  are plant hobbyist since before pandemic strikes.

Why teachers plant more?

Planting is a great way to relieve stress. Whether you have a small patio to decorate or a vast amount of space to tend, the act of planting can be a stress reliever in itself, and the garden they created bring even more peace. 

 

How taking care of plants helps one's mental health?

Psychologist Renz Argao said that "taking care of plants is a way of engaging in positive activities that help people cope with the pandemic." Moreover, he said:

"Its benefit is similar to other positive or adaptive coping. You can get the same effects from practicing other forms of mindfulness, breathing exercises, or engaging in other activities that you enjoy or like, such as baking or cooking or engaging in sports."

Getting In Touch With Nature

The vast works that the teachers face every day and the amount of time spend indoors give them boredom and monotony. 

Thus, many teachers feel a desire to connect with nature and bond with family.

The TIKTOK Movers

Teachers are indeed very creative. Using the Tiktok Application it enables everyone to be a creator. It shares their passion and creative expression through videos.

BEHIND THE CURTAIN OF MODULE GIVING

The school serves as the pick-up point for all the learning modules, which the parents and guardians will get and bring home for their children to study and return with outputs within two weeks.

“Not smooth”

Bugo NHS teachers said that the preparations for the school opening under a pandemic has never been smooth.

      Teachers stayed longer time in the school just to make sure that modules will be ready for distributions.

        The making of Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) and using new technology platforms also simulate many challenges. Some online platforms like Google Classroom and Zoom were out of teacher’s control.

Teachers could not decipher which are the most effective and appropriate for their instruction style, class content, and student abilities. Indeed it’s a steeper learning curve than many parents, students, and teachers themselves realize. 

Dilemma

The ranging rate of the infected community undeniably causes fear also to teachers in modular learning. The transmission of the virus may spread during the module distribution and retrieval. 

The wearing of personal protective gears is not enough for safety. It causes thermal strain while in distribution activities.

Teacher’s Role Appreciation

The pandemic has open many parents’ eyes and increases their appreciation for teachers’ work as part of the basic fabric of the safety net for their children. 

Parents, guardians, and even learners also spend more time refreshing old lessons learned. They sometimes call out help for teacher’s assistance in the wee hours.

“VALUES MATTERS”

           Being a Teacher is a noble call.

     In contrary to the teachers experiences, Bugo NHS teachers remain steadfast in their sworn duty to the public. As stated in Art 8, Sec. 2 of CODE OF ETHICS FOR PROFESSIONAL TEACHERS
 

"Teacher shall recognize that the interest and welfare of the learners are the first and foremost concern and shall deal justifiably and impartially with each of them."

          Bugo NHS teachers remain to be:                 

May God bless us all!

LOVE WILL FIND WAYS TO REDUCE STRESS

         The recent poll shows that 46% of teachers report on high daily stress, which ties them to medical practitioners as the most stressful occupation.

         The pandemic never predicted that the teachers would be working from home for weeks to months. The very sudden shift to distance learning has placed an unprecedented type of stress for teachers to quickly adapt their curricula to air and online format that is accessible for all students. 

Cut the stress. Insert something new.

       The coronavirus pandemic has caused many to cancel their anniversaries; but not to this couple. 

     The world is increasingly being told to stay inside and maintain social distancing, but this couple have gotten creative.

        They cherish the moment rather than letting the pandemic spoil their celebration.

       Anniversaries are ultimately about accomplishing three main psychological and interpersonal goals.

One is "to remember the past, particularly the love stories and successes that led up to the present moment."

Another is "to share in the present, especially being grateful for the unique and special things that each [person] brings into the relationship."

And lastly,  "to recommit  the relationship and shared goals for the future."

Love always matters!

# Increase positive mental health among teachers.

# Celebrations Are Still Important—Even in a Pandemic.

How about you, how would you regulate your stress?
