Clean-Up, Leads to Glow Up! (THEMATIC)

           The National Clean Up Month that abides by the Proclamation No. 244 is done by the month of September. In that time, people gather and cooperate to do a significant act of cleaning up for the environment. Even if you do a simple act like: picking up a plastic bottle or a candy wrapper on the ground or on a seashore, the earth would still be thankful for it. Every month of this program, they introduce a theme to follow throughout the program. In connection to this, the theme of the thematic or blog we are going to make is "Let's Clean-Up and Blog". 

          As a student who took part of this program, I have done these activities that contributes to the protection and care of our environment: 

                     

I participated in the International Coastal Cleanup with the Boy Scouts of the Philippines held at the Mindoro Beach.   
 
        
The Debate Club, which is I am a part of, and its Mother Club and other affiliates joined in the National Clean-Up Month for our school campus.

 
 My club worked hard together to clean our       surroundings inside the school campus. 

       

On one of our thematics last school year, we planted vegetables to get food and benefits from them.

Write and Reflect! (Reflection)

 

           After the First Quarter of this school year, I have learned a few things in our ICT class. Like learning how to make drafts for our blogs before it gets published, learning the different types of blogs, learning about the rules and laws about blogging, interacting with other published blogs, and inserting our drafts and uploading pictures for our blogs before it gets posted. By these, I learned that posting and publishing blogs were not as hard as I expected, but there are still rules and regulations that still need to be followed.



           The problems/challenges that I have encountered during the time when I was making my blogs are having slow internet connection on the ICT classrooms, having difficulties in inserting pictures on the blog because of the slow signal, and lacking ideas of what content or context to put for the blog that will be posted. Because many students were using computers at the same time, that caused the internet to go slower and the other computers lost their internet connections completely.

          We addressed these challenges by taking turns on the computer to strengthen the network signal, we brainstormed for more ideas and suggestions, and we helped each other save and finalized our blogs to be published. By working together, we are able to successfully overcome challenges that we don't expect to overcome. Through cooperation and collaboration, we came through these problems/challenges. So, we need to always work together if it is needed.




           Moving on, I will keep doing my best to learn what I can gain from doing blogs in my ICT class. I am hoping to gain more interactions because of my blogs, in order to gain new peers. And, lastly I will make the best out of everything to make my blogs memorable that will someday serve as my witness of how fun was the last year of being in junior high school. These blogs will be my good memories that I will forever carry because it reflects my fourth year of junior high school journey.
