My Observation Report on Interaction

First day of class
(Your) NameShena B. Besmonte BTTE IV - C
Observations:
Student-to-Student Interaction Patterns
The patterns of interaction between student to student are usual,
having peer relation, making friends. Peculiarity is not observed, since they
do what they wanted to do so and it clearly show their autonomy on how
they behave with the same stuffs.
Student-to-Teacher Interaction Patterns
Students respect their teachers inside and outside of the classroom
and campus. They always give respect by way of greetings, paying
attention during discussion, obeying what the teacher ask and answering
politely. Even though, they arent his/her teacher, they also do the same
treatment.
Student-to-Non-Teaching Personnel Interaction Patterns
Students interaction with non-teaching personnel as observed was
just plain and casual. Usually it is observable during break time at the
canteen where non-teaching personnel were in charge.
Teacher-to-Teacher Interaction Patterns
Teacher to teacher interactions observed was friendly with lots of
smile and chit-chat. This interaction can also be best observed during break
time at the canteen where teachers regularly gather for snacks.

Student 1: Hi!
Student 2: Hello.
Student 1: What time is it?
Student 2: 10:30am
Student 1: Thanks. Im Eunice, anyway.
Student 2: Yasmine. Nice to meet you.
Student 1: Nice meeting you too.
Meanwhile, Teacher 1 just walking toward her students then interrupted by
Teacher 2 in the hallway
Teacher 1: Maam can I see your schedule? If you dont mind?
Teacher 2: Sure
Teacher 1: (Reading) Then give back the paper..
Teacher 1: Thank you Maam.
Teacher 2 node and smile.

Your Analysis
Why is a classroom a miniature of a greater society?
Because classroom is the second shelter of a child, that every
individual molds and shape their young minds inside of this institution with
different differences he sees by a teacher. It also the stepping ground of an
individual through the beginning of their future.
In every classroom, there are different kinds of people: Those who
work hard, those who play hard, those who do both, and those who do
neither. In society, you also get these kinds of people. There will probably
be little cliques, in this case, representative of small groups in society.

What are found in the classrooms that are similar to what can be
observed in society?
Discussion and interaction among the learners and the teachers in
promoting knowledge, unity, cooperation and creativeness in accomplishing
given tasks and responsibilities; having a harmonious relationship on each
and every member of the class and the facilities and equipment for learning
and development

Peace Concept on Focus:

COOPERATION

You are able to find pleasure

in working with another person
because you consider this person
as a partner,
notasa competitor.
Through partnership,
the task is done cooperatively
and more easily.
