2. Read and analyze the case. What issues are being presented in the case?
Case Study:
Mico recently turned 5 and attends a kindergarten program in Davao City. He is curious and
highly motivated to learn. He is an extremely smart boy but he is very disruptive in class. He
is always clowning around and distracting other students.
Mico:
Mr. John’s classes are so boring! He expects me to sit up straight and just listen as he drones
on and on. I used to really like English but now I really dread going to the class. Whenever he
ask a question he tells me to be quiet. It's very frustrating. Somebody needs to lighten up the
class! At my old school we were encouraged to work independently and to think for
ourselves but here I’m just expected to sit passively. How can I ever learn anything if he
doesn’t let me think? Sometimes I feel really depressed about the class.
Mico’s Teacher: Mr. John:
I get really angry with Mico sometimes. I always tell him to be quiet and listen to me if he
wants to learn. He always wants to question everything. The frustrating thing is that he’s a
very fast learner and is very talented at reading, writing and solving problems and always gets
an ‘A’! I have to admit that Mico is a charming boy, with a good sense of humor. Sometimes
he makes jokes to make his friends laugh. He gets well with his classmates too. I just wish
he’d listen to me. After all, I’m the expert.”
1.Do you think Mico has emotional issues or could he be a gifted student? Why?
