Gabay sa Magulang/Tagapag-alaga
Ang modyul na ito ay tumatalakay sa pagharap sa mga isyung maaaring
harapin ng inyong mag-aaral. Bilang mga magulang o nakatatanda sa pamilya,
kayo ay may papel na ginagampanan upang matugunan ito.
Ang paksang ito ay tumutukoy sa mga bagay na pwedeng maging
impluwensya ng mga magulang o sinumang miyembro ng pamilya sa pagharap sa
mga problema sa buhay. Ang mga gawaing itinakda ay magbibigay gabay sa
kanya kung bakit kailangang isaalang-alang din ang opinyong ng mga magulang
sa paghahanp ng solusyon sa mga isyung ito. Maaaring may mga pagkakataong
humingi ng tulong ang inyong mag-aaral sa pagsunod sa mga tagubilin at pagsagot
sa mga tanong sa bawat bahagi ng mga gawain. Hinihiling ng kagawaran ang
inyong suporta at pakikiisa upang matagumpay niyang maisakatuparan ang bawat
bahagi tulad ng mga sumusunod:
Ang mga gawaing nakapaloob dito ay maaaring gawin ng inyong mag-aaral
sa loob dalawang linggo.
Nangangailangan ng panulat at papel sa bawat bahagi ng modyul na ito
upang masagutan ang mga gawain at katanungan sa “Processing Questions.”
Ngunit kung ang paaralan ay makapagbibigay ng worksheet, doon na niya sa
worksheet mismo isusulat ang anumang ipinapagawa.
Tiyaking sasagutin niya ang bawat bahagi nang tapat. Ang modyul na ito ay
may limang gawain at dalawang set ng “Processing Questions.”
Pagsama-samahin sa isang folder na may “fastener” ang mga gawaing
isinulat niya sa papel. Ito ang magsisilbi niyang portfolio sa kanyang “Homeroom
Guidance Activities.”
Siguraduhing maipapasa niya ang kanyang portfolio sa petsang itinakda ng
kanyang gurong-tagapayo.
