History of Mabitac National High School Mabitac,
Laguna
MABITAC NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL can be said to be small
school situated in the corner of two barangay: Brgy. Maligaya and Brgy. Libis ng
Nayon now called Bernardo Sayarot Street. The total land area of the school is 18
238 sq. meters for the main school and 6000 sq meters for the extension site.
These are all donated by the municipal government.
This school started to operate in the year 1971 through the best effort to
Mrs. Lydia V. Carpio. She was the first principal in-charge and the founder of the
said school.
The school was called Alas-As Barangay National High School, first
Barangay High School in Mabitac. The school’s name was changed to Mabitac
National High School through the Sangunian Bayan resolution and approved by
the NHI (National Historical Institute) on November 15, 1994.
This institute started only two (2) classroom borrowed from Mabitac
Cultural School. Also, the Sanguniang Barangay of Lucong was used as
classroom through the leadership of Brgy. Captain Mariano G. Bobadilla, who
adopted the school for ten years. The Barangay Libis ng Nayon and Barangay
Maligaya disowned the school.
Gradually, the school got its integrity. At the start, there are two full time
teachers in the person of Ms. Fe L. Reyes and Mr. Nelson V. Vicuña, other
teachers are: Mrs. Aimee Albayand and Mrs. Rosario De Guzman.
On the school year 1977-1978, Mrs. Carpio decided that the school should
have a permanent site, and the head teacher designed was Mr. Nelson Vicuña.
After a year of being a head teacher, Mr. Vicuña decided to work abroad. Mrs.
Mata was assigned as the teacher-in-charge, on 1979-1980. During her
administration, school record was organized; sewing machines and science
equipments were acquired. Unfortunately, she was not able to pass the Board
Examination for Teachers, so Mrs. Yolanda S. Dimaranan took over the position
and was promoted to Head Teacher to Principal I.
Mrs. Dimaranan is the leader of the school for twenty-six years. She was
able to establish our school on its success. The acquisition of land for the school,
different buildings and all equipments needed were patiently acquired for the use
of the institution. During her administration, students’ development as well as
curriculum development and values were given emphasized.

HARMONIC SEQUENCE
I. Specific Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
1. define and identify a harmonic sequence; and
Given nth first term and the common difference, the nth term
can be found.
2. Find the first six terms of a harmonic sequence where a1 is 1/3 and d is
¼.
Solution:
The corresponding arithmetic sequence with a1 = 3 and d = 4
will be 3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, ….. Therefore, the harmonic sequence is
1/3, 1/7, 1/11, 1/15, 1/19, 1/23, ….
3. Find the 13th term of a harmonic sequence if a1 = 1/6 and d = 2.
Solution:
The corresponding arithmetic sequence has a1 6, d = ½ and n =
13.
a13 = 6 + (13 -1) ½ = 6 + 12(1/2)
a13 = 6 + 6 + 12
Therefore, the 13th term of the harmonic sequence is 1/12.
E. Exploration
1. What is observed about the given examples?
2. Compare an arithmetic sequence and a harmonic sequence.
3. What is the relation between an arithmetic sequence and a harmonic
sequence?
4. What is the nth term of a harmonic sequence?
F. Generalization
(Refer to Mathematical Concept for the definition of harmonic
sequence.)
To find the nth term of the harmonic sequence use the formula for
arithmetic sequence an = a + (n – 1)d and get the reciprocal of an.
G. Activities
1. Identify whether the given sequences are harmonic or not.
a. 5, 8, 11, 14 c. ½, ¼, 1/8, 1/10 e. -1/7, -1/4, -1, 1/2
VI. Evaluation
1. Find the 30th term of the harmonic sequence 1/3, 1/6, 1/9, 1/12, …..
2. Find the 10th term of the harmonic sequence -2/3, -4/7, -1/2, -4/9, …..
3. Find the 12th term of the harmonic sequence -8/3, -4/3, -8/9, ….

Observation in student teaching must be directed and systematic. There should be
specific purposes. During this period, the student teacher participates in the classroom
and school activities. They assist the cooperating teacher in the management,
maintenance of the classroom and order discipline, preparation of instructional materials,
construction of test, checking and usage of test results, accomplishment of school forums
and records, extracurricular activities in the school and in the community.
2. Visit their room at least one day before the observation day.
3. Confer with the cooperating teacher before observation day.
