Reflection Blog Post #6

Third Quarter Reflection The third quarter was a meaningful time for my learning and personal growth. I learned new topics from different subjects and became more active in class. I realized that when I prepare for lessons and participate in discussions, I understand the topics more clearly. This quarter also taught me the importance of discipline and being consistent with my schoolwork. Along the way, I experienced several challenges such as heavy workloads, quizzes, and projects that were sometimes overwhelming. There were days when I felt pressured and lacked motivation, especially when tasks piled up at the same time. These moments tested my patience and focus. To overcome these difficulties, I practiced better time management and prioritized my tasks. I asked for guidance from my teachers and shared ideas with my classmates when lessons were hard to understand. Taking short rests and encouraging myself also helped me stay calm and motivated. As I move forward, I aim to improve my ...

 Christmas is a season filled with happiness and love. It is a special time when families gather and spend moments together. We enjoy talking, laughing, and creating happy memories. Christmas reminds us to care for one another and to spread joy. It gives everyone a feeling of peace and hope. During Christmas, families also enjoy sharing delicious food. We prepare simple dishes at home and enjoy them together. Cooking and eating as a family brings us closer. The food may be simple, but it is made with love. Sharing meals makes the celebration joyful and meaningful. Most of all, Christmas is about love and togetherness. It is not about expensive gifts or decorations. What matters most is being kind and thankful. Helping others and showing love makes Christmas truly special. These values should be practiced not only on Christmas, but every day.

Jose Rizal BLOG POST #5

 Jose Rizal: Voice of Freedom and Change Jose Rizal is one of the greatest heroes of the Philippines because he used his mind and talent to fight for freedom. Instead of using violence, Rizal chose education and writing as his weapons. Through his novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, he exposed the abuse, injustice, and discrimination experienced by Filipinos under Spanish rule. His works awakened the Filipinos’ sense of nationalism and encouraged them to think critically about their situation. Rizal believed that true freedom starts with knowledge.

2025 National Children’s Month The theme for this year’s National Children’s Month, “OSAEC-CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban!”, highlights a very serious issue that many young people face today—online sexual abuse and exploitation. For me, this theme reminds us that even if technology makes life easier, it also creates new dangers for children. The message encourages everyone, especially adults and the government, to take a strong stand in protecting kids not just offline, but also online where most abuse now happens. I think the government has been improving its actions when it comes to protecting children’s safety, dignity, and rights. Laws like Republic Act 11930 or the Anti-OSAEC and Anti-CSAEM Act show that the government recognizes how dangerous the internet can be. This law forces online platforms to strengthen their security, helps law enforcement trace criminals faster, and ensures that victims receive proper support and protection. For me, this is a go...
