My 3rd Quarter in ICat class

      In my 3rd quarter in ICT class, I've gained a lot of lessons about Microsoft Frontpage. I've learned the uses of Microsoft Frontpage and the parts of this application. Doing our activities in our 3rd quarter ICT class are very enjoyable.

      

       In the 3rd quarter, I encountered some challenges in our ICT class. Sometimes I can't follow to our lesson because sometimes our teacher is so quick to discuss about our lesson and in this 2nd quarter she is very busy from the office and because of the uncountable meetings and too much celebration in our school.

       I overcome all of this through the help of my classmates and who guide me in our activities, who explain to me our lessons clearly. I overcome those by asking questions to our teacher about the lessons that I can't understand and searching in the internet for the lessons that I can't really understand.

       Moving on, I will used all lessons I've learned from this quarter and share it to other people who didn't know the uses and parts of the Microsoft Frontpage. I will share my knowledge about the lesson that I've learned in this quarter to the grade 9 students so that they can easily understand their lessons if they were in grade 10.

The Essence of CHRISTMAS

          Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ. A time for us to understand the lessons from Jesus & reflect on them. Jesus brought a new religion based on love & the vision of a God who is full of compassion & forgiveness; a vision of doing everything with a positive mindset & from a place of love.

          This month, I heard three different people talk about December, they all said the same thing:, oh my “its December, an expensive month”. This caught my attention, why is it that people are talking about an expensive month instead of being happy that it is almost Christmas. We give each other presents but do we really know the essence of Christmas?. Jesus himself said, “love thy neighbour as thy self”.

          Christmas is not all about merry making. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period which is the love of God for humanity. This unquantifiable love is summed up in the popular bible verse John 3: 16 “For God so loved the world that he gave us his only begotten son, that whosoever believe in him will not perish but have eternal life.”When we ponder on God’s love for us, we too are encouraged to share love with others, to embrace peace and be our brother’s keeper. When we are imbued with this love of God, we will be always willing to give a helping hand to those in need, to give succour and comfort to the vulnerable ones among others. Last Christmas and this year 2019 was very happy, joyful and cool, and I wish that this incoming Christmas and New Year are much better than last year.

         

GAD-VAWC Celebration

          Gender equality plays a crucial role in development. The Gender and Development (GAD) focal point at NAPC actively promotes the advancement of women by combating the feminization of poverty through a series of GAD activities. This year, the newly-formed GAD committee has scheduled capacity-development building among NAPC staff and the basic sectors. Key activities include Gender-Sensitivity Training (GST) and Gender-Responsive Planning (GRP). This is to create gender awareness, identify gender issues, and establish a unified action plan in order to address them.

          Some projects are included, such activities for women's empowerment as the GREAT Women Project, Grassroots Mobilization for Legislative Agenda on RH, Women's Month, Women and the Environment Month, Women's Health Day, and 16-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women (VAW).

          Violence against women and children is a serious public health concern, with costs at multiple levels of society. Although violence is a threat to everyone, women and children are particularly susceptible to victimization because they often have fewer rights or lack appropriate means of protection. In some societies certain types of violence are deemed socially or legally acceptable, thereby contributing further to the risk to women and children.

          In the past decade research has documented the growing magnitude of such violence, but gaps in the data still remain. Victims of violence of any type fear stigmatization or societal condemnation and thus often hesitate to report crimes. The issue is compounded by the fact that for women and children the perpetrators are often people they know and because some countries lack laws or regulations protecting victims.

 

Environment Awareness Month

Environmental awareness is to understand the fragility of our environment and the importance of its protection. Promoting environmental awareness is an easy way to become an environmental steward and participate in creating a brighter future for our children.

To define environmental awareness we must first understand the environmentalist movement. Environmentalism is an ideology that evokes the necessity and responsibility of humans to respect, protect, and preserve the natural world from its anthropogenic (caused by humans) afflictions.

Environmental awareness is an integral part of the movement’s success. By teaching our friends and family that the physical environment is fragile and indispensable we can begin fixing the problems that threaten it.

Numerous resources are available to promote environmental awareness; group learning, informational and inspirational seminars, environmental books and brochures are just a few of the tools that can get you involved in promoting the environment.

Children's Month Celebration

           This May, the Council for the Welfare of Children (CWC) released a memorandum focusing this year’s National Children’s Month (NCM) celebration theme on the rights of children on November 2019.

            The theme of the Children's Month Celebraton is dubbed as “Karapatang Pambata: Patuloy na Pahalagahan at Gampanan Tungo sa Magandang Kinabukasan” in relation to the “Karapatan ng mga Bata” of the Philippine Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) implementation and accomplishments and was approved by the Council Board on April 2019.

            This year’s celebration aims to celebrate the gains and successes of the country in promoting and protecting the children.

Further, the theme is also crafted to intensify the public’s awareness and remind all sectors of the community and society to be responsible in raising-up the Filipino child to become a well-rounded person.

            “We need to further institutionalize a child-friendly environment and governance, and strengthen the actions of the stakeholders and partner agencies in implementing the rights of children,” said Mark Alison Follosco of the Regional Council for the Welfare of Children (RCWC).

            He added, “It is also essential that children are empowered as right-holders and duty-bearers for them to deliver their responsibilities and commitments to promote, protect and fulfill their rights.”

The NCM every November is pursuant to Republic Act No. 10661, observed by CWC, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the National Youth Commission (NYC), which are considered as lead organizations for the yearly celebration.

             Values mirror the Filipino people’s rich heritage of history and culture. They manifest the things in life that Filipinos revere. With these values, Filipinos have coped with the vicissitudes of life.

            One value that has not been emphasized in our people’s education is Isang dugo, one blood, one race, referring to our common origin in the past. This is one beautiful and endearing value that we must teach our children to help preserve the unity of our nation.

          The celebration of Buwan ng Wika is not just a part of our history, it is also what keeps us united as a nation. Here in our country, every month of August we are celebrating the "Buwan ng Wika" to commemorate and remember our national language which is Filipino. We have 8 main languages here in our country such as Iloko, Visaya, Iligaynon, Capangpangan, Waray, Pangasinense, Bicolano, and our national language wich is Tagalog. Linguistic or the scientific study of language is greatly influenced by history, culture, social and political factors of our country.

This is also a local means of communication between members of a people or community. this is the first language that we have learned in our life. For indigenous people's languages not only identify their origin or membership in a community, they also carry the ethical values of their community.

My 1st quarter in ICT class

      In our 1st quarter in ICT class, I've gained a lot of lessons like creating, and publishing blogs. I've also learned the different types of blog and different blog search engines such as blog lines, blog scope and technorati. In the 1st quarter I've also learned the uses of internet, the pioneers, and history of the internet.

      In the 1st quarter, I encountered some challenges in our ICT class. Sometimes I can't follow to our lesson because sometimes our teacher is so quick to discuss about our lesson and sometimes she is very busy from the office and changing schedule of students. And it's not easy to take down notes because our discussion is too fast.

      I overcome all of this through the help of my classmates and who guide me in our activities, who explain to me our lessons clearly. I overcome those by asking questions to our teacher about the lessons that I can't understand and searching in the internet for the lessons that I can't really understand.

      Moving on, I will used all lessons I've learned from this quarter and share it to other people who didn't know how to create blog account, how to published some blog. I will share my knowledge about blogging to the grade 9 students so that they can easily understand their lessons if they were in grade 10.

Every 12^th day of June, the government gave Filipinos a special non-working day to celebrate the Independence day in our country. Some Filipinos celebrate the Independence day by going to the park with their family and watching cinemas about Independence day.

Some Filipinos not totally free well because may crime here in our country but the government do their very best to prevent all this crime so that our country will got the true freedom that we want to get.

National disasters resilience month

          What is disaster? Disaster is a sudden calamitous event that seriously disrupts the functioning of a community or society and causes human, material and economic or environmental losses that exceed the community’s ability to cope using their own resources. Disaster is a serious disruption occurring over a short period of time. Disaster strike all over the world, sometimes it is very dangerous to every people. Disaster can damage all our natural resources that we have.

          We are at the high risk from cyclones, earthquakes, floods, landslides, tsunamis, volcanic eruption, and wild fires because we are located at the “Pacific of ring of fire” were some kinds of disasters specially earth quakes may occur over a short period of time. We can prepare or we can face all of that if we are always ready. Being ready and prepare are the best thing to escape all of the challenging disasters.

This celebration encouraged all of us to maintain our healthy lifestyle. Nutrition month celebration is an annual nutrition education and information campaign. It focuses on teaching people to make correct food as well as developing good eating and exercising habits.

           Me as a student, having a good nutrition is very important part of leading a healthy lifestyle and it can help us to avoid disease and illness such as hypertension and cancer. It also makes our life become more enjoyable and keep our body in a good condition to accomplish our daily tasks.

           Healthy lifestyle is not only a magic, it is not something that you want to spend your whole life dreaming about.

                             

Execution of Earthquakes Drill

               We as students, proper execution of school drills will help to prevent panic, which might lead to accidents when everyone is over helmed with fear during the earthquake. If the Dep-Ed and DOH gave us opportunity to have an earthquake drill, we need to follow so that if the earthquake occurred in our province, we know how to do and to prepare for the aftershocks of the earthquake. Earthquake drill is very important because this is the only activity to prepare ourselves for the earthquakes.

               Federal state and local emergency management experts are agreeing to the “Drop, Cover and Hold on” because this is the appropriate action to reduce injury and death during earthquakes. This is the opportunity to practice how to protect ourselves during earthquakes. It explains what we need to do and should not to do.
