My Analysis

Your findings and recommendations in the Learner Development Profile will help you answer the question here.

1. From your home visit and interview, what do you think is the style of parenting experienced by the learner? Explain your answer.

When I conducted an interview to the parents of the learner, I was able to know that the style of parenting they have on their child is authoritative type in which this type of parenting the learner is self-governing but there are still rules present that limit him in his play, actions, and joining with friends.

2. Relating your data with what you learned from child development, what family factors do you think contribute to the development and over-all adjustment of the learner in school.

As what I have learned in Child and Adolescent Development the factors that I am going to contribute to the development and over – all adjustment of the learner in school are: first, it contributes how the learners are nurtured by his parents, their financial setting, and cultural background of the family unit.

3. Does the communication between the home-school have an effect on the learner? If yes, what are these effects?

“Education begins at home” This quote helped me in finding and understanding the behavior of the learner. What he did in school reflects how he is nurtured and reared by his parents at home. One of these effects for instance, if the learner act and possessed misconduct in the classroom, then what he did especially when it is a serious type then surely his parents are expected to visit the school and consult for the performance of his child to his adviser or teacher.

My Reflections

1. Reflect on your own development as a child. What type of parenting did you experience? How did it affect you?

When I was still a child until this present, I observed that the style of parenting I have is authoritarian type of parenting. Wherein my parents are always in authority and rules are given. But even if these type of parenting is not available I could still manage my time because I inherit the attitude of my grandmother which makes them happy that at this age of mine, I do not even engage myself in going out with my

peers in the sense that I am afraid of the bad influence that might bring me to descend and as what my parent says, “temptations are always there surrounds you so be careful in doing something.” Her lines blessed me, anyway this affects me on my studies in the sense that, instead of spending my time with other, I rather choose to work on my projects and any school activities.

2. As a future teacher, how would you establish good home-school collaboration? How can you work well with the parents? How can you help them? How can they help you?

As teacher to be, I could establish good home – school collaboration by observing the behavior of the learner in my class. I would be responsible enough on their attitude for instance; if ever there is a trouble behind that creates a conflict, problems in my students subsequently I will call the parents of that learner such that even they will be able to know how their child performed in my class. Wherein through this, we can say that there is relationship between home– school links.

My Portfolio

1. Make an artistic, colorful and creative visual expression of your insights or feelings about the influence of the home and school to the learner. Then write a few statements on the space below about your visual art.

Collaboration between home and school make the learner meet in the challenging world today

2. Make a reflection acrostic about the home school link.
