D. Elaboration:
Background information for Teachers:
REUSE: Donate or sell re-usable items.
= Use both sides of paper and printing and reuse as scratch paper, gift wrapper and etc.
= Consider the potential life span or durability when buying new products.
= Buy durable food storage containers and use them instead of using foil, plastic bags/wrap.
= Materials that can be reuse are empty tin cans, bottle of all sizes, wrapper, wood parts of furniture, medicine
vials.
The importance of reuse is to prevent solid waste from entering the landfill, improve our communities, and increase the
materials.

REFLECTION:
Which of my teaching strategies worked well? Why did these work?
1. Video presentation as spring board to teaching are likewise effective pupils absorb it faster if they are looking at a
video; because most of the pupils these days are bodily kinesthetic and visual learners.
2. Group work among my pupils works well because I see them all engaged in the activity.
3. Creative presentations such as singing and role playing are also very effective. Some of them are new to each other
yet they work effectively to showcase a creative and relevant theme activity.
4. Power point presentations are also very useful for pupils. It facilitates easy and faster delivery of the lessons.

What difficulties did I encounter which my principal or supervisor can help me solve?

1. Bullying among the pupils/classmates is bearable but needs proper guidance from my superior.
2. The competencies specified in the curriculum guide might be a little too complicated for my pupils, thus, I need the
help of a superior to fill me in with the previous knowledge of the learners so, I can adjust, and remediate if needed,
before working on with the competences.

What innovations or localized materials did I use/discover which I wish to share with other teachers.

1. I find a localized video showing activity a very interesting and effective material for my class.
2. I already told my pupils to start collecting used materials such as wrappers and plastic bottles for our activities.
3. I gave my pupils the idea on what are reusable waste materials that can be used in our classroom project.
