San Esteban High School Sbm Best Practice.docx

A.

INTRODUCTION

School-based Management (SBM) is a management framework which is school-based, student centered and quality-focused. Its purpose is to devolve the decisions on student learning and resource deployment to the school to enable it to make school-based policies which better meet the needs of students and enhance their learning outcomes. It operates within a centrally determined authorities and responsibilities. State Background The school is currently facing different hazards based on the school watching cheklist (student-led school watching and hazard mapping) such as broken windows, slippery pathway, flooded area, busted plugs, broken door knobs, flooding, open/incomplete perimeter fence and others. Hence, these different hazards were prioritize to provide quality education to the students Message from the Principal

Educating everyone takes everyone, San Esteban High School is committed to pursuing issues and facilitating changes that enhance the quality of education for all learners. With the passage of RA 9155, SEHS support the School-Based Management (SBM) as a governance framework of Dep-Ed, as an effective mechanism to improve the quality of education in the basic level. Thus, it is truly viable structural reform intervention used to improve the quality of education in the public school so as to produce functionally literate Filipinos. JOJOKYLE L.

Curriculum and Instruction

MAPEH EXHIBIT “ESTEBANIANS:

COMMITTED TO BE THE STEWARDS OF GOD’S CREATION”

MAPEH subject is not only about dancing and sports. It also involves also the health specifically Environmental Health. Since March is an Art Month we came up with an exhibit that was held last March 8, 2019 with the theme “Estebanians: Committed to be the stewards of God’s Creation”. It is actually a yearly activity for MAPEH department to conduct an exhibit specially about environment, yet the Grade 9 students felt really excited about this year’s MAPEH Exhibit. They came up with a simple but nice presentation of their artworks. The exhibit started 10:00 am and ended 12:00 noon. The Grade 9 students and Grade 10 students art work were the focus of the exhibit. Their poster about environment, brochures and bottles that were designed were placed on the designed Grade 9’s room. The different year level were able to see the exhibit and they were given an orientation upon entering the room. The Grade 9 students serenaded each grade level while they are inside the room so that they will realize the importance of our mother Earth.

The students really enjoyed the said exhibit and they are really proud of their presentation. Being the I am so happy because we are able to hit our objective that the students will be able to realize and appreciate again our nature and to be committed to be the Stewards of God’s Creation.

PROJECT ALL NUMERATES (AN) Numeracy is the ability to reason and to apply simple numerical concepts in real life situations. Basic numeracy skills consist of comprehending the four fundamental operations namely addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. To have numeracy skills doesn’t mean to be a great mathematician. It means to have some basic math skills plus some analytical thinking. A numerically literate person can manage and respond to the mathematical demands of life. Unfortunately, many students have spent their junior high school level with poor concepts and skills in Mathematics. One of the basic foundational knowledge and skills is the competence in the four fundamental operations, a vital criterion skill to solve equations, real life word problems that extend not only to the world of Algebra as well as with the other field in Mathematics. Hence, the Project All Numerates (Project AN) of the Department of Education was being implemented every year throughout the Philippines, to solve the deteriorating numbers of numerates in the country. Project AN aim to make all Filipino learners numerates through different fun and engaging ways. Also, this program helps teacher to utilize different strategic intervention in order to help learners be numerates and to aim to have zero non-numerates. Moreover, it wants to eradicate the mandate that Mathematics is an arduous subject that produces Math anxiety to the students.

San Esteban High School believes that “experience is the best teacher”. Thus, Mathematics teachers try to create Mathematical task that will help students learn the importance of 4F’s. Mathematical tasks are used to help students to experience the “true” Mathematics. Most students’ hated mathematics because Mathematics is not properly represented in school. It is because the task given at the schools are focused on computations and solving word problems. Hersh (2008) stated that students don’t like Mathematics because of the way how teachers taught it at school and the kind of task they are provided. Furthermore, he added that the Math the student encountered at school is an indigent version of the Math of life. Thus, when you asked student about the definition of Math, most of them will answer it is about numbers and complex things that is not even applicable in real life. Through Mathematical task students will be able to understand the importance of 4F’s in real life.

The following intervention will be applied in order to achieve the desired objectives in the numeracy intervention work plan: 1. “Adopt a Child Program” In order to provide maximum assistance and individualized instruction to non-numerates and nearly

numerates, teachers

will adopt two students to teach during their vacant period, lunch break and

dismissal period. They are going to assist and guide

the non and nearly numerates during remedial

discussion,

activities, exercises and home works. 2. Tutor – Tutee Approach In accordance with the Peer Learning, Tutor – Tutee Approach was developed by the Math Club to help the nearly numerates and non – numerates students. Math Club officers and volunteer students will teach the said students every Friday after class sessions. 3. Window card and Flash card Drills / Math apps and computer games Math drills have long been part of a teacher’s arsenal in building Math speed accuracy. Math window

cards,

worksheets,

flash

cards and oral recitations of math facts are the most common effective drill and

practice tools in the classroom. To make these

drills even more effective and engaging, we will also make use of math apps and computer games which involves practice on the 4 fundamental operations.

4. Video lessons (Math magic) Videos can help us deepen inquiry into teaching and learning math. There are a lot of videos on YouTube

which

provides

techniques and strategies in performing basic operations involving 2 or more-digit

numbers. These techniques are sometimes not

introduced by math teachers in the previous years such as the Japanese method, boxed/table strategy and the like. There are actually a lot of hidden techniques and

strategies that could

help students acquire the necessary skills in performing basic operations. After

presenting

video

lesson,

students

will

demonstrate the technique using pencil and paper worksheets. 5. Play – based Learning A play-based approach involves both child-initiated and teacher-supported learning. The teacher

encourages

children’s learning and inquiry through interactions that aim to stretch their thinking to higher

levels.

Research

shows play-

based learning enhances children’s academic and developmental learning outcomes. It can also set your child up for success in the 21st century by teaching them relevant skills.

SEHS

adapted

the

Clash of Clans game developed by Quezon National High School in teaching the students

on the 4Fs.

6. Make Non-routine problems a classroom routine Non-routine problems are complex problems that requires some degree of creativity or originality to

solve. Non-routine problems

typically do not have an immediate or apparent strategy for solving them.

Often times, these problems can be solved in multiple ways. By consistently allowing students to grapple

with

these

challenging problems, they can be able to acquire essential critical thinking and problem-

solving skills and the confidence needed

to execute them (Melissa Tallman, 2015). This non-routine

problem

will be incorporated in our daily math class that they can solve collaboratively where each group

consists

of

numerates,

nearly-numerates and non-numerates who will work together to solve the problem

in their own unique way.

7. I am a business man Approach Students were tasked to be a vendor and make sure they will earn money instead of having a deficit.

SUSTAINABILITY AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS SEHS attempts and endeavor toward producing a better and improve school facilities and teachers who are responsive and active to institutional changes, creative, and innovative; relevant classroom instruction that produces learners equipped with the 21st century competencies and skills; child-friendly school environment that promotes and fosters learning and character-building; and a school system that is governed with responsibility, accountability, and continuous improvement. Our schools have paced up all efforts in the delegation of school management. Essential aspects of operations, processes, and directions collaboratively developed may, likewise, be introduced in some schools to improve support systems. LGUs, NGOs and other stakeholders have vital role in a better result of School-based Management. Given the significant programs, projects, activities, interventions, and practices of school, it is only proper that support and assistance be continuously provided to help elevate performance and achieve intended results and outcomes. Best practices and successful projects yielding positive results are meant to be sustained and shared.

It is our sincere effort to come up with our own SBM Congress to showcase our best practices in the division. CONCLUSIONS In our effort to strive for continuous improvement, certain projects are vital and necessary to enhance school performance and student achievement. 1. School improvement can be achieved through coordinated strategy that responds to the unique needs of schools. 2. It is particularly important to tap the support of stakeholder’s / resource persons; Programs and projects require collaboration and engagement of stakeholders. 3. Partnership is vital to the success of any organization. 4. Improvements and changes that result from interventions and strategies can be measured through evaluation 5. It is necessary to determine the effects of programs and projects conducted and implemented

RECOMMENDATIONS Sharing of best practices help school to reflect and improve on their practices and performance by learning about the successes of other schools and replicating them. New and better ideas, innovations, researches, and practices proven to aid in continuous improvement of schools need to be communicated to help others achieve and succeed as well.
