The everyday interactions and activities that take place in the classroom and other areas of the school will have a significant impact on stu dents’ learning and develop ment because they spend a large portion of their days there. According to the selfdetermination theory, people have three fundamental needs: a need for autonomy, a need for competence, and a need for belonging. Students’ wellbeing, motivation, engage ment, and academic success will be influenced by how teachers respond to these fundamental demands that they have. One of the closest levels of influence on student development at school is teacher-student interactions, which are connected to kids’ fundamental psychological needs. These relationships come from a constant inter action between the traits of the individual instructor and those of the student. In terms of their fundamental psycho logical needs and wellbeing, instructors’ interactions with their students are also crucial. The concept of stu dent participation is crucial to education. It alludes to focus and enthusiasm for the material being presented. It boosts learner engagement and academic performance. For students to be engaged, they must be inspired to learn. Without motivation, students will be disengaged, which means they won’t be motivated to do tasks that are essential for learning and will lack interest in the class. The atmosphere transforms as a result of the development of relationships; it becomes a nurturing one in which the students feel at ease because they perceive their professors as showing them care. Building relationships with their students helps teachers become more aware of what their students need, which allows them to tailor their curriculum to fit their needs and academically.inspireswheresarychild’srelationshipsmotivating.interests—highlyIntheclassroom,arecrucialtoalearning.Itisnecestocreateenvironmentspeoplegetalong,asthisstudentstoadvance

“The feast is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy to come.” (Mt 22,8) With these words in the parable about a king who invited guests to a feast, we are reminded that we have to be ready to face God in judgment, because he can call us anytime. We know that death can come to us anytime. Without developing a gloomy outlook in life but simply to be realis tic, we should somehow consider each day as our last day of our life here on Thatearth.way, we would be more motivated to prepare ourselves to meet God and to be very dis cerning about what truly counts in life, knowing that we can easily get confused and lost, tossed to and from and carried away by the changing conditions of our daily life.Just the same, know ing that we can never be sufficiently prepared for death, we should not be afraid to face God in judgment, since God is always willing to offer us mercy, just as Christ offered mercy to those who crucified him. We should just at least show some signs of repentance at the moment of death. In other words, we have to be eternity-ready all the time, because we are meant for eternal life in heaven, and not just temporal life here on earth. Our life here on earth is just a testing ground to see if what God wants us to be, that is, to be his image and likeness, children of his, sharers of his life and nature, is also what we want ourselves to be.We therefore have to be constantly aware that in every event and con dition in our life here on earth, that ultimate purpose of our life is always considered and acted upon. We should try to avoid simply get ting lost in our temporal affairs.Inthis regard, it would be helpful to realize that since God is the creator of the universe, know ing him would lead us to know ourselves and everything else properly. And loving him would enable us to love our selves and everything else properly as well. God, Always ready to face God in judgment

The Philippine Center for Postharvest practical solutions on coconut processing, pro duction and distribution towards developing the local coconut industry. These processing plants are shared or jointly used, owned or operated by the farmers’ cooperatives for the manufacturing, pack aging, labeling, storing and marketing of selected coconut products and/or by-products for retail and wholesale distribution to various clients,” Director Alvindia added. Using the Value Chain Approach, the proposed shared facilities or busi ness models that will en hance the efficiencies of the value chains include the integrated white copra centrals, copra buying stations, integrated co conut processing centers intended to produce VCO, cocowater, coconut water concentrate, coconut flour and coconut skimmed milk, coconut coir from mature and young nuts, coco sap-based process ing facilities, integrated processing facilities for buko (pared nut, coco wa ter, frozen meat, bukayo, buko pie, coconut shell charcoal), granulating plant and farm service crew.The proposed shared facilities or business mod els can also have cacao and coffee processing centers, dairy milk and livestock-based process ing centers for farmers that will engage in the production of other food crops and livestock in their coconut farms. Director Alvindia also said the agency has already developed a vil lage level coconut wa ter processing technol ogy and system and the Greenhouse Solar Tunnel Dryer (GSTD) that coco nut farmers’ cooperatives can easily adopt. The coconut water processing technology can process up to 2,000 nuts, approximately 2,000 bottles (350 mL) coconut water per day. Meanwhile, the MCSTD can dry coco nut meat using heat from the sun, while producing white copra and protect ing the produce from contamination.“Thevillage level co conut water processing system was developed by PHilMech specifically for use by cooperatives in co conut communities, with the aim of helping them generate more income by bottling coconut water. It is also easy to operate and does not occupy much space,” Director Alvindia said.Under Section 4 of RA 11524, PHilMech is mandated to establish shared facilities for coco nut farmers cooperatives and local government units (LGUs), using 10

Learners got a chance to join themselves in the summer reading en hancement this time around. Learners were locked inside their home before to keep themselves safe from the virus and the summertime reading enhancement served as their avenue of kicking themselves out and mingling themselves too with their co-learners. It was the start of something new to them. The summer reading enhancement is the department way of helping and intensifying reading skills of school children. It’s a two-week activity that is purely concentrated on providing reading activities that would enhance more the reading skills of the learners. The reading enhancement was open to all learners who would like to gain additional learning on reading. Tablon Elementary School had opened such activities just recently and concluded last Aug. 12, 2022. It was a blast of learning expe rienced for those learners who decided to take on the challenges and successfully beat and finished the summer reading enhancement. The activities went well with the established and strict health protocols. Tablon Elemen tary School will continue to provide fun and exciting ways of allowing learners to learn and relearn things through the Department of Education. Covid-19 will never and can never stop the school from giving at hand and utmost education to the learners. The crisis itself can never stop the learners from beating their hearts to continually love learning. The summer experienced of the learners were fruit ful. Fun and educational. Learners were able to regain their confidence with their reading skills despite of the health emergencies. Thus, summer reading enhance ment served as one of the rooms for learners’ growth and improvement. See CAFE , page 11

Even young minds learn best when they are involved in the learning process. They get more interested to learn day by day. And that is in Science. It encourages the children to do something. They would love to observe, ask questions, and even do experiments to find answers. And so, as a teacher, Science should be fun to learn and teach. This makes inves tigative individuals more interested to find out why and how things happen. These people are very inquisitive and curious that often like to spend time alone with their thoughts. With this, the point of good science is not to teach you what to think. It teaches you how to think. When you study science, you learn how to analyze often huge amounts of data. In every step you do, you are more enthusiastic to finally find the answers. Fun steps in Science includes: under standing, creating a plan, seeing the plan through, and looking back to learn from the solution. Not only that, Science helps clear communi cation, strong focus, and good organization. This simply emphasizes that science is one of the most important channels of knowledge. And that made the reason why most of the school learners get fascinated with Science.

Do you believe that such an ideal place exists on earth or at least achievable during your life time? The truth is everywhere you go, you will always come across problems, conflicts, and injustice. Societal issues and concerns are but part and parcel of human life. However, Philosopher Plato believed education has the potential to solve all human problems, may it be political, economic, social, or environmental. Plato pioneered a public school system that caters learn ers from all walks of life. Of fering a quality, accessible and free education to all citizens regardless of religion, eco nomic status, gender, physical and mental capabilities, must be the prime responsibility of the state. If we are to build an orderly, peaceful, and progres sive society where every citizen willingly adheres to the laws of the land, the state should provide them with appropriate education. As we all know, the more educated people are, the more they tend to abide to the instituted rules of conduct. Suffice it to say, professionals almost always act and behave professionally as they want to represent their respective professions in the best possible way. When one is educated in a certain aspect, he becomes aware of the dangers attached to it. As a result, he will try his best not to get strangled by any of these dangers. The challenge to the Phil ippine government is how to make quality education free and accessible to all. We already have existing public campuses, infrastructures, facilities, and personnel. But quality educa tion for all remains elusive. It cannot be achieved solely by the government itself. All parties involved have a role to play. For example, the govern ment should increase its budget allocation for education. This budget can be used to raise the salary of teachers, build more schools, procure ICT facilities and other instructional materi als, fund professional develop ment trainings and educational research, and sponsor the educational advancement of educators. On the other hand, educators also need to render nothing but their best services. They must be committed to their profession and focused on achieving the goals of the present educational system. Parents and guardians must send their children to school. They also have to do their share of educating their children at home by doing follow-ups, communicating constantly with the teachers, tutoring their children whenever necessary, and assisting them in doing assignments and performance tasks. Lastly, the learners must be willing to learn, internalize what they learned, and act in accordance with what they havePlato’slearned.claim that education is the key to solving every human problem can only be achieved if the government, educators, parents, and learn ers embrace their respective roles. However, the real battle remains to be won within the heart of each individual per son. It is a matter of having the right perspective towards education. The question is, are we willing to do our part?

Further, according to the survey, IDA also affects two out of 10 children 6months to 5 years old, as well as the six to 12-year-olds. In addition, one out of ten 13- to 19-year-old teens are likewise affected. With this underlying issue, DOST-FNRI devel oped the Iron-Fortified Rice (IFR) and Iron Rice Premix (IRP) technolo gies to help address iron deficiency anemia in the country. Fortifying rice with iron is a strategic nutrition intervention in helping address IDA, because rice is the staple food of most Filipinos.

Parents will often ask us which kind of education is more valuable - a quality educa tion or a good education. We believe that both knowledge and social skills are important in early childhood education, but we also know that these attributes differ for different children. If you have young kids, it’s probably best to focus on the latter. However, what if the former is too challenging for your child? Keep reading to discover why you should focus on knowledge and social skills in pre-school and what you can do to help your child develop these essential skills set at Ashome.the name implies, knowledge and social skills are the foundation for any later academic success in life. The ability to acquire knowledge through reading, writing and arithmetic is what makes us hu man. Knowledge also includes the capacity to understand other people and their ideas and motivations, as well as to communicate and collaborate with others. Social skills refer to the ability to communicate, interact with others and get along with your child’s class mates.There are a couple of rea sons why knowledge and so cial skills are important for preschoolers. For one, kids are developing their cogni tive and mathematical skills at this age. Additionally, kids are also forming emotional connections with their sur roundings and peers. Hence, by teaching your child early on how to function within a group, you can prevent him from being socially awkward later in Afterlife.enjoying a quality education in childhood, it’s important for kids to learn how to interact with people of different ages and back grounds. They should also be able to use these skills to interact with their own par ents. This can help your child develop better communication and listening skills, as well as better impulse control. When your child is young, he’s also very impressionable. Hence, you can help him navigate the social world by developing his social skills. This can help him feel more confident, have better self-esteem and be more perseverant in the future. We believe that both knowl edge and social skills are im portant and can be developed in preschoolers. However, we also know that social skills are more developed at a young age and will continue to grow during your child’s childhood years. If you have a child who is just beginning to develop language, you may want to focus on the former. After all, the latter is often associated with relating to others and forming strong relationships. However, if your child is more advanced, you can help him develop key social skills by teaching him how to play with his peers, use a bike helmet and ride a bike without falling.

Amidst the contempo raneous morale collapse, religious apathy and deni gration of spirituality, it has become imperative to read this book that will somehow unfetter humanity from the mundane to go to the sublime. Indeed, we are more than form (body) as we are consciousness (spirit). When one puts his/her life in the Hands of God, it is in consonance with the bibli cal line, “What would profit Life... from page 4 a man if he gains the whole world but suffers the loss of his soul.” Putting our lives in the Hands of God will be an exemplification of Consciousness that is now pervading in the universe to unfetter humanity from collective insanity brought about by an egoic mindset and compulsive thinking. The collective insanity of humanity that has sacri ficed the people and the earth to the alter of greed and profit should now be countered otherwise the unimaginable will become imaginable, the end of life on Noearth.way will the Supreme Being allows that! Thus, it has become urgent and imperative to put one’s life in the Hands of God. How? Please read Dr. Guiab’s book, “Lives in the Hands of God.” as fully revealed to us by Christ in the Holy Spirit, should always be the be-all and end-all of ourEveryday,life. we should try to settle accounts with God. In fact, saints and the Church herself have recommended that we make a daily examina tion of conscience just before going to bed. This is to see if the day went as it should, that is, if love for God and neighbor is really the motive of all our actions, and so that we at least can be reconciled with God no matter how the day went. We should at least say sorry to God, even if we still have to do things to make up for our mistakes and sins. This is an important task, because more than just resting physically, mentally or emotionally, we need to be at peace with God at the end of the day. God is everything to us. Regardless of our status at the moment, whether good or bad, moral or immoral, God not only will tell us what to do but also will give us what we need at that time.God is always avail able, and what he gives us is also what we actu Face... from page 4 ally and ultimately need.

Ng, Filinvest Land Inc. Deputy Chief Finance Officer Janeth B. de los Reyes, and Robin sons Supermarket Manag ing Director Stanley C. Co to deploy 25 coin deposit machines in select retail establishments located in Greater Manila and nearby provinces.Automated CoD Ms will allow customers to conveniently deposit coins and redeem their accumulated value from partner retail establish ments through shopping vouchers or rewards card points. Alternately, cus tomers may opt to directly credit the amount to their participating bank accounts or electronic wallets. Fit coins collected from the machines will be returned into circulation when partner retailers use them as change for overthe-counter payments of good and services. Unfit coins, on the other hand, will be removed from cir culation and subsequently retired by the BSP. “There is a problem when it comes to recircu lating coins: some people hoard or collect them while some people leave them be hind altogether, leading to an artificial coin shortage. This defeats their intended purpose as a medium of exchange,” said Governor Medalla.Coins per capita rose by 584 percent over the past 17 years, up to 342 pieces in June 2022 from 50 pieces in 2005 as the BSP increased coin production to meet growing“That’sdemand.whywe hope that this project will solve problems for everyone: businesses, financial insti tutions, and the public. I’m very optimistic that after a two-year pilot run, we will be able to deploy these ma chines [in more locations] and I am confident that the benefits will be realized,” the Governor added. In addition to coin recirculation, the CoDM Project also supports the BSP’s efforts to promote digitalization and financial inclusion by allowing autocrediting to bank accounts or electronic wallets. Also present at the event were BSP Deputy Gover nor (DG) Bernadette T. Romulo-Puyat, BSP DG Mamerto E. Tangonan, BSP Senior Assistant Governor (SAG) and General Counsel Elmore O. Capule, BSP SAG Edna C. Villa, SM Retail Inc. Vice President for Treasury Jeffrey L. Ang, Festival Mall and Filinvest City Retail Assistant Vice President Marvin V. Mendoza, and Robinsons Retail Holdings Inc. Assistant Vice President Graciela A. Banatao.
