LICENSURE EXAMINATION FOR TEACHERS REVIEWER (Part 1)                   In taking the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET), it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should know ALL the theories, principles and relevant laws in Education. If that is what you believe in, then you are only preparing “half” of the review for the LET. Yes it is essential for you to know them, or maybe familiarize yourself with them, BUT you should always remember that the Licensure Examination for Teachers doesn’t only measure how you memorize those proponents of several theories and the underlying principles of teaching and learning, but also measure HOW you are able to apply them on the actual setting. How you select the appropriate solutions to given situations and when to apply these principles are also vital in the LET.

Preparations for the LET Since there are no two individuals that are exactly alike then there are no two individuals also that prepare for the LET in the same manner. We have different learning styles during a review. Some may tend to self-review while others enroll on Review Centers.           In terms of Self-Review, it is important to carefully plan your review schedules. If you want, for example, to make use of the first three weeks on reviewing General Education (English, Math, Science, Filipino and Social Studies) then it is definitely okay. Make sure that you are able to cover the five areas of general education in the span of three weeks. If you think you can’t then add another week in case of shortcomings. Having self-review means you have the control of your time so make sure you make the best out of it. Utilize your time well towards a fruitful and efficient review.             If you think you can’t keep track of your time management and you want to review with a group (co-examinees) then better enroll in LET Review Centers. There are several review centers you can choose from like Carl Balita Review Center, St. Louis Review Center and MindGym Philippines. Some schools have their own program for LET review and they can be of great help, too.                       It is also important to take note that in the actual Licensure Examination for Teachers, you have to select the BEST answer. This is very applicable on Professional Education items which is the second part of the LET (last part for Elementary teacher examinees). Some may find this kind of test to be difficult because more often than not, choices a, b, c and d seem to be all correct. If you have several sources or sample questions for the board exam then try to answer them and assess your performance. This will help you get use to such kind of test items. Make sure that during your review, prayers should not be absent.

Confidence. Never doubt yourself during the big day. Be positive. Try to observe other examinees. They may be hundreds and they search are just like you convincing their selves that they can do it.

Sometimes Classic  Flipcard  Magazine  Mosaic  Sidebar  Snapshot  Timeslide when you are already taking the exam they will just pop out of your head so it is better for you to relax. LICENSURE EXAMINAT…             Listen carefully to the assigned room watcher. Be attentive at all times because you don’t want to commit any mistakes during the filling of forms. Attached to it are the answer sheets. Never ever get messy with your answer sheets. Avoid putting smudges in it because your answers are checked and scanned by a machine and it is very sensitive so better keep your answer sheets clean. You are only allowed to write anything on the test booklet.             For Secondary teacher examinees there will be three parts: General Education followed by Professional Education then Specialization will be done in the afternoon. Two (2) hours are alloted for the first and second part while three-four hours are alloted for the field of Specialization. There is an hour allotment for a break after each tests. For Elementary teacher examinees, there will be two parts for the exam; GenED and ProfED only. Take time on answering each parts of the LET. Have trust in yourself.

There are two (2) Factors affecting Growth and Development: 1. Heredity (Nature) - refers to the transfer of genes. It also puts limitation in growth and development. 2. Environment  (Nurture) – pertains to the interaction with the surroundings and proper nutrition acquired. When a baby is newly born, it is covered with a cheese-like substance called vernix caseosa. Also covering the newborn is lanugo which is the fine hair-like structure covering the baby. There are also different types of birth presentations. They are the ff: 1. Cephalic when the head of the baby is presented first during birth giving. 2. Breech when the legs/buttocks are presented, and 3. Transverse when the shoulders of the baby are presented during birth. During infancy, babies tend to present reflexes. Reflexes are involuntary movements or actions. Some movements are spontaneous, occuring as part of the baby’s usual activity. Others are responses to certain actions. Reflexes help identify normal brain and nerve activity. Some reflexes occur only in specific periods of development. The following are some of the normal reflexes seen on newborn babies: 1. Root reflex. This reflex begins when the corner of the baby’s mouth is stroked or touched. The baby will turn his/her head and open his/her mouth to follow and “root” the direction of the stroking. This helps the baby find the breast or bottle to begin feeding. 2. Suck reflex. Rooting helps the baby become ready to suck. When the roof of the baby’s mouth is touched, the baby will begin to suck. This reflex does not begin about the 32nd week of pregnancy and is not fully developed until about 36 weeks. 3. Moro reflex. The Moro reflex is often called as “startle reflex” because it usually occurs when a baby is startled by a loud sound or movement. In response to the sound, the baby throws back his/her head, extends out his/her arms and legs, cries, then pulls the arms and legs back in. A baby’s own cry can startle him/her and trigger this reflex. 4. Tonic neck reflex. When a baby’s head is turned to one side, the arm on that side stretches out and the opposite arm bends up the elbow. This is often calles as the “fencing” position and lasts about 6 to 7 months. 5. Grasp reflex. Stroking tha palm of the baby’s hand causes the baby to close his/her fingers in a grasp. It lasts until about 5 to 6 months of age. 6. Babinski reflex. When the sole of the foot is firmly stroked, the big toe bends back toward the top of the foot and the other toes fan out. This is a normal reflex until 2 years of age. 7. step reflex. This is also called as the walking or dance reflex because the baby appears to theme. be dancing orimages takingbysteps when held upright. Dynamic Views Theme Alitangi.

8. Cremasteric reflex. This reflex is much common to baby boys. When the thigh is stroked softly, the lower part of the tummy tends search to startle or move. This reflex is also observable during puberty or even among grown up men.

Gross motor skills pertains to larger skills that babies mmake with their arms, legs, feet or with his entire body such as crawling, running and jumping. b. Fine motor skills refers to smaller actions such as when a baby picks up things between his fingers or wriggles his toes on the sand. T also includes moving his/her tongue, mouth and smaller parts of the body.

Periods of Development 1. Pre-natal period – from conception to birth 2. Infancy – from birth to 18 months old 3. Early childhood -18 months to 6 years             During 3-6 years old, boys tend to display “Pseudomasturbation”. During this period teachers must be very observant and should not impose threat or punishment when such activity is observed. If the teacher do so, the child may develop “castration fear” or the fear of having his genitals being removed. The BEST way to handle such situation inside the classroom  is to ignore the behavior, divert the attention of the child and after, explain to the child that masturbation should be done in private places. 4. Middle and late childhood – from 6 to 13 years (slow growth) 5.

*Oedipus Complex means that the son is more into the mother while Elektra Complex means that the daughter is more into the father. *Overstimulation means that when the child during the given age of a particular stage is given something too much may result to something negative. For example, during the Oral stage, if the baby doesn’t need a breastfeed but the mother still gives him milk he will become too used to it resulting to being gullible when he grow up. On the other hand, if the baby is understimulated or wants milk to the point that he/she is crying but the mother always ignore him/her, then the baby will grow up as if he/she always wanted to have something in his mouth for he/she was deprived of it. This may result for him/her to be a drinker, a smoker or gossiper.             Sigmund Freud also developed the differences between our id, ego, and superego.                                                                                         ( moral principle; conscience) EGO

JEAN PIAGET developed the Cognitive Development Theory wherein according to him, knowledge is based from prior learning (schema). He also stressed that Constructivism (realting past knowledge to new ones) is important to the learners’ development.

LEV VYGOTSKY proposed the Socio-Cultural Theory. He emphasized that social interaction plays a very important role in cognitive development. He also believed that individual development could not be understood without looking into the social and cultural context within which development happens.

Scaffolding is Vygotsky’s term for appropriate assistance given by the teacher to assist the learner accomplish a specific task.

NOAM CHOMSKY developed the Language Acquisition Device or Mother Tongue-Based Technique.    He is also the major LICENSURE EXAMINAT… proponent of the Innatist Theory, which postulates that humans have innate ability to acquire language; they are genetically preprogrammed for it. All normally developing children acquire language. He also maintains that language and thought are separate. 3. SOCIAL CONTEXTUAL THEORY. This theory is primarily proposed by Lev Vygotsky which states that social interaction influences both language and cognitive development 4. COGNITIVIST THEORY (Jean Piaget) maintained that language acquisition cannot take place until cognitive development has paved the way for it. It asserts taht children develop knowledge of the world and then “map” thixs knoowledge onto language categories and relations. From this viewpoint, language development depends on cognitive development, but not vice versa. Who are the Exceptional Children? They are children with the following conditions and difficulties: 1. Aphasia – impairment of any language modality (sound production) 2. Dysphasia – partial impairment of language 3. Dyslexia – special learning disability with written language 4. Dyscalculia – special learning disability with numerical operations 5. ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) – impulsivity in attention and being hyperactive. Ritalin – medicine for ADHD. It makes the hyperactive child more hyperactive to make him/her tired and tend to take a rest.

PAULO FREIRE proposed the Banking Concept of Education. According to him, a child is like a bank which the teacher deposits knowledge. This is almost the same with John Locke’s Theory of Tabula Rasa wherein the child is like a blank tablet which during the learning process becomes filled with knowledge. Apparently, Jean Piaget opposed these for according to him, the child has prior knowledge already and the teacher gives new knowledge then the child relates it to what he already know (Theory of Constructivism).

THEORIES OF INTELLIGENCE AND LEARNING STYLES 1. Two-Factor Theory by Charles Spearman. It supports that intelligence has two factors: a general mental ability factor (g) which represents what different cognitive tasks have in common; and many specific factors (s) which include mental abilities (mathematical, mechanical or verbal skills). Spearman is also the first one to use Psychometric approach to measure or quantify cognitive abilitiesm or factors taht are thought to be involved in intellectual performance.

It argues that there are different kinds of mental abilities that make up different kinds of intelligence. Instead of having only two factors, there are 9 kinds which include verbal intelligence, musical intelligence, logico-mathematical intelligence, spatial intelligencce, body kinesthetics intelligence, intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligence, naturalistic intelligence and existential or moral intelligence. 3.

Sternberg’s Triarchic Theory of Intelligence. This is divided into three  sub

theories:             a. Experiential intelligence which is the ability to formulate new ideas;             b. Contextual intelligence which is the ability to adapt to a changing environment; and             c. Componential intelligence which is the ability to think abstractly and process information. 4. Jean Piaget’s Dynamic View. According to him, a person’s intelligence is dynamic, that is, it changes as a person’s interaction with his or her environment changes. 5. Wechsler’s Global View. David Wechsler made his fame as the developer of the IQ Tests. He devised teh Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WESC-R).
