My Target
At the end of this activity, you will gain competence in preparing instructional materials (hand out) that are
appropriate to the learning content.
Subject Matter: Types of Chemical Reactions
Grade/Year Level: 3rd year
Outline:
Combination reactions in this type of reaction two or more substances maybe element

or compound react to

form a single product.

The combination of iron and sulfur to form iron (II) sulfide is an example of a synthesis reaction:
8 Fe + S8 8 FeS
Decomposition reactions this type of reaction occurs when a compound breaks up into its component parts. It can
be two or more substances out of a compound
The electrolysis of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas is an example of a decomposition reaction:
2 H2O 2 H2 + O2
Replacement reactions this type of reaction occurs when an element is set free from its compound producing a
new element and new compound.
An example of a substitution reaction occurs when zinc combines with hydrochloric acid. The zinc replaces the
hydrogen:
Zn + 2 HCl ZnCl2 + H2
Double replacement reactions- a type of reaction in which two compounds combined to form two new compounds
by exchanging their radicals.

An example of a double displacement reaction occurs between sodium chloride and silver nitrate to form sodium
nitrate and silver chloride.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s)

Analysis

1.

After working on your handout, answer the following questions:

What are the good features of a handout?

A good handout must be concise and can be understood by the readers. There must be subtitles that make it easier
to read and the key words must be in bold type in order to have an emphasis. To shorten it, the use of bullet point
format may contribute as well as the use of diagrams, flowcharts and etc Make sure that all the important pints of
the presentation are on the hand out and do not include too much information, otherwise it can become cluttered. The
content must be easily recognized and it must be sequence properly to avoid confusion. The content must have
legibility.

1.

2.

Which of these features are present in the hand out I made?

Most of these features are present. The handout that I made was concise and comprehensive. The key concepts
were emphasized because they are in bold type. I also use bullets, concept map. I contained all the important points
of the presentation and I sequenced the details properly to avoid misconceptions.
The use of bullets and concept map helps me to summarize the types of chemical reactions.

3.

Which features are not present in the handout I made?

Honestly, there was a poor legibility on the handout that I made. My penmanship was not good enough to make my
handout very attractive to the eyes of the readers, yet there is a chance to enhance its legibility by using one of the
applications of a computer specifically the Microsoft word office.
I did not use any subtitles because in my own point of view it is not necessary to use subtitles for that subject matter.

Reflection

1.

What difficulties, if any, did you encounter been making the handouts? How did you
overcome them?

To make a handout is not totally difficult as long as I have a reliable source or references and assistance from a
computer. The only thing that took time and needed brain storming is the conceptualization of the flow of the handout
and the concept map that I included. So first I did was to make an outline of the content of my handout then I read
several references and searching through the internet just to form my concept map.
I also find difficult in providing examples in every chemical reactions. So what I did was to read and understand the
details in every chemical reaction so that I can give correct examples.

2.

What tips can you give teachers regarding preparation of handouts?

The teacher must identify first her objectives and the purpose in making the handout. Then he/she must
conceptualize the flow and the content of the handout by making an outline. The teacher must also read several
references so that the handout will be an informative tool for the students learning.
In terms of the content of the handout the teacher must use subtitles in order for the students to read it easily and the
keywords must be in bold type in order to have an emphasis. Bullet point format and concept map must be use to
summarize the content. The teacher must put all the important points in the handout and he/she must not include too
much information to avoid cluttering. The teacher must know how to sequence the content in order to avoid
confusions

My Target
At the end of this activity, I will gain competence in developing and utilizing materials (slide presentations)
which involve students in meaningful learning.

Analysis

1.

1.

What are the good features of a slide presentation?

A good slide should include transitions or effects to put emphasis on some points of the lesson, but not

too many. It must have also one design or theme for whole slides to avoid confusion or any misconception. The slides
must not too long, nor too short to avoid cluttering in the slides. A pictures speaks thousands words, hence photos
must be included in the slides to let students know what I am talking about. The contents of the slides are important
points of the lesson and must not include the whole words that I have to say for the whole discussion.

1.

2.

Which of these features are present in the slide presentation you made?
The features that are present in my slide presentation that I have made are the transitions, effects, only

one theme or design for the whole slide and also pictures that help students visualize their thoughts or ideas.
My slide presentation was not too long or too short and I give emphasis on the contents because they
are the important points of my lesson.

1.

3.

Which features are not present in the slide presentation you made?
All those good features of a slide presentation that I have cited are present in my slide presentation. I

did not mention the sound effects and music, for me it is not essential to use all the time because it brings distraction
to my discussion. There are times that music and sound effects are highly needed especially in presenting a video
presentation

1.

What difficulties, if any, did you encounter in making the slide presentation?

How did you overcome them?

Making power point presentation is very interesting to me because I can do most that I wanted to do to make my
slides a clear representation and as a tool of information sources. So far, there were no difficulties that I have
encountered because the program has guides on how to use its features. If there is a certain feature which I dont
know how to use, then I just simply click help or go to a website specifically the Google to find the answer if there is an
internet access.

Evaluation of the website

Strengths

Weaknesses

It allows the students to interact

with real life situation without danger,
expense or difficulty often associated
with real situations. The website has
an easy access tool for learning.
It provides the needs and interest
of students.

It will be only weak if there

is no internet access and if the
content of that website cannot
provide the needs and interest
of the students.

Before I give the topic or activities to be searched by students, I must ensure first that those topic and activities are
consistent in my learning objectives. I must also give proper instruction to the students before they search such
websites by explaining to them the learning goals to be achieved before searching any websites so that the students
will stay focused during the activity. When students get confused, I must provide guidance and directions, guide
questions and activities or scenarios. It is also important to have a follow up discussions to make some
generalizations for that topic.
Using the internet as an information tool is good and effective. Upon surfing on the internet, I saw many
websites that have programs to make learning fun and effective. Some of the websites have games and other has
tutorial programs but aside from those benefits, internet access may also be dangerous to the learners. From the
websites I visited, some of the learning is incorporated with violence games and pornographic photos and videos
which are not good influence to the students. Using internet as an information tool is good and effective but proper
supervision of the teacher is highly needed and before giving the topic or any activity to be searched, I must check
first the websites and choose those that are safe for the students.
Over All Reflection
As a future teacher someday, I will always bear in my mind that learners are rich in learning
capabilities. The process of learning are highly unique and individual, this means that in a classroom there are
individual differences that I must consider. I need to assist my future students to define and to make explicit to
themselves the approaches they ordinarily use so that they can become more effective in problem solving and
learning. I learned that one of the riches resources for learning is the learners himself. Each learner has an
accumulation of experiences, ideas, feelings and attitude which comprise a rich vein of material for problem solving
and learning. I consider learners as the richest resources for learning because they have their own aptitude which are
their innate talent or gift , interest which express deep feelings for objects or actions and made their stay pleasant and
enjoyable, they also have their own ability which pictates the prospect of success in any purposeful activity, attitude
which is the learners perspective and disposition and last their family or cultural background which is their socioeconomic background.

I also learn that learning is the discovery of personal meaning and relevance of ideas. As a future
teacher, I will only facilitate my learners and they are the one who will give the meaning of a concept. Just like for
example, my topic is all about the leaf of a plant. I will let them have field trip outside the classroom to observe the leaf
of a plant. I will guide them and I will demonstrate first and give some information about the leaf and its parts after
that, they will give their own meaning or understanding about the leaf and its parts. Learning is gradual its because it
is by stages or levels so as a future teacher someday I must extend my patience.
To be good teacher someday I must have passion to both my work and to my students, I must have also
humor in a way that has connection to the topic, also values and attitude, fairness, sincerity and honesty, and
professionalism.
