Learners’ Development Matrix Record the data you gathered about the learners’ characteristics and needs in this matrix. This will allow you to compare the characteristics and needs of learners at different levels. The items under each domain. Are by no means exhaustive. These are just sample indicators. You may add other aspects which you may have observed. Preschooler Indicate age range of children observed: 3-4

Elementary. Indicate age range of children observed: 5-7

High school. Indicate age range of children observed: 11-15

Physical Gross motor skills. Fine motor skills. Self help skills Others.

They are energetic and playful, likes to walk around and run back and forth. They are also dependent to elderly when opening a bottle, opening an umbrella or carrying their books.

They are interactive and participative in outdoor activities. They also show good skills in drawing or molding with clay.

Emotional Moods and temperaments, Expression of feelings. Emotional independence. Others.

They easily get upset when something happened isn’t what they are expecting but they are gaily and often show positive emotion toward others. But they easily cry when they are hurt or someone showed a negative attitude.

ANALYZE

Write the most salient developmental characteristics of the learners you observe. Based on these characteristics, think of implications for the teacher.

Level

Implications to the TeachingLearning process

Salient characteristics observed



Preschool Age range of learners observed 3-4

They imitate or copy adult’s action.

Elementary Age range of learners observed 5-7

They are more interactive in playing outdoor games.

High School Age range of learners observed 11-15



Mood shifts occur in almost every situation.

Therefore, the teacher must show good acts to pre-schoolers. Therefore, the teacher must correct if a child has copied a wrong action from adults. He/she must explain to the child what’s wrong with what they’ve have shown.



Therefore, the teacher should incorporate performance-based activities in every lesson.



Therefore, teachers must be patient in dealing with high schoolers as they are now in adolescent period which is a critical stage. Understanding is needed.

THE K TO 12 GRADING SYSTEM REFLECT



While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own experience? Says when you were their age? What similarities or differences do you have with the learners you observe? I see the young me when I observed these learners. Just like a normal pre-schooler I was also energetic and gaily when in class. I always like being the center of attention. But most of the time, I play by myself and never want to join others when playing. As I excel in class, I start to enjoy talking to others, sharing my favorites and telling them most of my imaginations. I had few friends in elementary that made me feel better when someone is harassing or bullying me. I was a crybaby that time. I couldn’t handle disappointments. Even though I was a consistent achiever, my social skills aren’t good enough. I was unapproachable. During highschool, I often had mood swings just like any other teens. But with the help of my parents, teachers some of the close friends I had, I was able to manage my emotions well especially when being mad.



Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons. How did she/he help or not help you with your needs (physical, emotional, social and cognitive)? How did it affect you? As I have mentioned above, I only had few friends. And this what bothers my Grade 6 teacher, because I am not the friendly type. She often tells me to start making friends and being nice with others. I am not mean, but I was really unapproachable that time. My teacher told my brother about it and he really helped me to at least feel comfortable with others. And because of her, I started to make new friends and to feel comfortable with others.



Share your other insights here.

Dealing with diverse learners is a difficult job. Teachers must understand that these differences are factors that influence learner’s performance. A teacher must be able to respond with their needs no matter how diverse they are. Teachers need to modify every strategies or approaches they use when dealing with different group of learners. But the most important thing is that the teacher must accept these differences and influence other students to feel confident with themselves because they are unique.

SHOW Your Learning Artifacts

Which is your favourite theory of development. How can this guide you as a future teacher? Clip some readings about this theory and paste them here.

Development influences learning. As we go through different stages of life, our human skills and abilities strengthens and increases. These different stages will give us developmental patterns that will enable our body and brain perform a certain task. How we learn and respond to tasks varies in every stages. And this is what Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Development Theory emphasizes. Piaget’s theory simply tell us that we move through different stages of mental development. This is why our learning ability, comprehension and acquiring of knowledge is different when we are young and when we reach adulthood. Starting from birth to adult, our intelligence changes. Using this a tool to understand better students will help me realize that differentiated and modified responses in terms of instruction, assessing and developing learning materials is important. Children are naturally diverse especially in mental abilities. Through cognitive development theory, I will be able to identify their individual needs and respond to these needs appropriately.
