Informal Theme No.4
Pantomime
Shh! Shh! Hey no sound, that’s what I always hear on the stage.
                At first, when Ma’am us that we will have pantomime, our only reaction was “Pantomime, huh?” “What’s that?” It’s very new in our ear. Just then we found out that you will act without talking but we all know that in talking we can communicate. “How is that?” questions are running in our mind. While were practicing we just found the answer “COOPERATION”. Every problem, we can make it! That’s why we are the 3F, united we stand divided we fall. Even though we had mistakes when we are together we can still make it through.
                After pantomime, we had a self fulfilment, we proved to ourselves and to others that not only in kalokohan we are solid but we can stand for the good as well. Everything is a job welldone for a beginner like us. Thanks to our English III teacher, Ma’am Mildred C. Atendido for such unforgettable experiences in her class and for the new lesson that we’ve learned. 


Informal Theme No. 3
THE CREATION OF THE TEACHER
The Good Lord was creating teachers. It was His sixth day of 'overtime' and He knew that this was a tremendous responsibility for teachers would touch the lives of so many impressionable young children. An angel appeared to Him and said, "You are taking a long time to figure this one out."
"Yes," said the Lord,” but have you read the specs on this order?"
TEACHER:
…must stand above all students, yet be on their level
... must be able to do 180 things not connected with the subject being taught
... must run on coffee and leftovers,
... must communicate vital knowledge to all students daily and be right most of the time
... must have more time for others than for herself/himself
... must have a smile that can endure through pay cuts, problematic children, and worried parents
... must go on teaching when parents question every move and others are not supportive
... must have 6 pair of hands.

"Six pair of hands, “said the angel, "that's impossible"
"Well,” said the Lord, " it is not the hands that are the problem.  It is the three pairs of eyes that are presenting the most difficulty!"

The angel looked incredulous, “Three pairs of eyes...on a standard model?"
The Lord nodded His head, “One pair can see a student for what he is and not what others have labelled him as. Another pair of eyes is in the back of the teacher's head to see what should not be seen, but what must be known. The eyes in the front are only to look at the child as he/she 'acts out' in order to reflect, “I understand and I still believe in you", without so much as saying a word to the child."
"Lord, " said the angel, " this is a very large project and I think you should work on it tomorrow".
"I can't," said the Lord, " for I have come very close to creating something much like Myself. I have one that comes to work when he/she is sick.....teaches a class of children that do not want to learn....has a special place in his/her heart for children who are not his/her own.....understands the struggles of those who have difficulty....never takes the students for granted..."
The angel looked closely at the model the Lord was creating.
"It is too soft-hearted,” said the angel.

"Yes," said the Lord, “but also tough, you cannot imagine what this teacher can endure or do, if necessary".
"Can this teacher think?" asked the angel.
"Not only think," said the Lord, "But reason and compromise."
The angel came closer to have a better look at the model and ran his finger over the teacher's cheek.
"Well, Lord, ” said the angel, your job looks fine but there is a leak. I told you that you were putting too much into this model.  You cannot imagine the stress that will be placed upon the teacher."
The Lord moved in closer and lifted the drop of moisture from the teacher's cheek.  It shone and glistened in the light.
"It is not a leak," He said, "It is a tear."
"A tear? What is that?" asked the angel, "What is a tear for?"
The Lord replied with great thought, " It is for the joy and pride of seeing a child accomplish even the smallest task. It is for the loneliness of children who have a hard time to fit in and it is for compassion for the feelings of their parents. It comes from the pain of not being able to reach some children and the disappointment those children feel in themselves. It comes often when a teacher has been with a class for a year and must say good-bye to those students and get ready to welcome a new class."
"My, “said the angel, " The tear thing is a great idea...You are a genius!!"
The Lord looked sombre, "I didn't put it there."

Informal Theme No. 2
3 Words of Wisdoms:
1.)    She never says take care because as if you are telling that watch out something bad will happen to you. Instead of “take care” say “stay safe”.
2.)    Patience is a virtue, like “successful persons do not believe in failure. They believe in their own ability to overcome any obstacle and their faith overcomes every hindrance.
3.)    You should have already future plans. “Your life must have direction” that is what Ma’am is always telling us. She will ask us “What course you will take? “ and “What do you want to be someday?” if you haven’t decided yet go and find a high building and jump!

Informal Theme No. 1

Personality Distinguishes You from Others
                An authority may once said “there are 3 types of a person”, a person he think he is, a person others think he is and the person he really is. Personality distinguishes us from one another. We all come in different size and shape. What is important to me may not be important to you, and the one you treasure most is in there I don’t care about at all.
