Lesson 1 THE HUMAN RESOURCES IN A MULTIGRADE

This document discusses the human resources in a multigrade classroom. It identifies the learner, teacher, and other adults as the key human resources. The learner is at the center of learning and no two learners are alike. The teacher must balance several roles, including facilitator, manager, observer, evaluator, and planner. Parent involvement is also crucial, as are support from private institutions and government officials. The goal is to discuss how these various human resources impact the quality of education provided in a multigrade setting.

MODULE II

THE COMPONENTS OF A MULTIGRADE


CLASSROOM
LESSON 1
THE HUMAN RESOURCES IN A MULTIGRADE
CLASSROOM

INTRODUCTION

A learning environment is where children learn and teachers teach. The


different elements of the learning environment are interrelated and interdependent.
Having a deeper understanding of the interrelation and interdependence of these
elements will help the teacher plan his/her day-to-day lessons/activities more
effectively and thereby facilitate learning.

OBJECTIVES

At the end of Lesson 1, you should be able to;

 enumerate all the human resources in a multigrade classroom

 discuss how these human resources affect the quality of educational services
extended to the multigrade children
READ

The LEARNER is at the center of the educational process. The child grows
and develops as a result of interaction between what has been inherited, the
environment and time. The child grows through different stages of development.
How fast the child goes through the stages depends upon the interaction of factors
like maturation and learning. No two children are exactly alike because of the
combination and interaction between inherited genetic traits and the differences in
their interaction with the people, objects, events and places in their environment.
How we view the learners, our assumptions about them and how they learn
determine how we treat them as learners whether inside the classroom, at home or
in the community.

The TEACHER is the critical figure in the teaching-learning environment. The


role of the teacher has evolved over time. In a child-centered classroom, the teacher
must be able to perform and balance several roles all the time.

These roles are as;

 Facilitator who removes the roadblocks or obstacles to learning, who


encourages children to be active rather than passive receivers of knowledge,
and who uses varied instructional strategies or approaches to encourage the
children to learn in many different ways.

 Manager who directs the strategies for a multigrade classroom.

 Observer who watches the children at work, play and other school activities, in
order to anticipate and meet their needs.

 Evaluator who finds out if children are learning what is expected of them and
determines if the goals of the curriculum are being achieved

 .Planner who plans day to day lessons/activities for teaching and learning and
who is flexible enough to make the necessary changes based on the
feedback from observing of the children at work.
OTHER ADULTS-Parent involvement is a crucial factor for a successful multigrade
school. Teachers’ efforts to involve parents in their children’s education improve
home-school relations. Parents support the schools by providing additional and
necessary resources. There are also private institutions who are very willing to
support the education of these children in whatever ways they can. Teachers should
recognize that the government officials from the barangay to the municipal level are
valuable allies.
