Arnis for Elementary:A revival of lost combat
It doesnt matter that we were having a good time in sports,
what fullling most is if that sports at the same time helps to
promote our identity, our cultural heritage, a way for more
unied country.
Dec.11, 2009 former Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo signed
the R.A.9850 declaring Arnis as the National Martial Arts and
Sports of the Philippines.
Last May 6-12, 12 for the second time the competition of
Arnis was opened to the Elementary Division male and female
from all over the country.
Now the schools all over the country were mandated toinclude Arnis in their Physical Education Curriculum. (P.E.)
However on our current curriculum, Arnis was not yet
there, another issue was P.E teachers should also have a proper
trainings regarding the basics of Arnis and not just about the
History alone. This will help a lot for deeper appreciation and
application of it.
Arnis, the said martial arts that have been an instrument
used by our heroes to defeat their colonizers were said to be
losing its recognition. The reality we were facing today was
the need to continuously veer the interest of young athletes
towards the arnis sports.
Lets all help to revive the lost passion for this l ost combat.

Post Grad research entitled
Status of the Arabic Language
and Islamic Values (ALIVE) in
the District of Sofronio Espanola
reveals it was much serious.
Main cause of the problems
in implementing the ALIVE
Prog. Is the availability of
enough funds which result
to poor school facilities and
resources and poor availability
of skilled azatids.
It also reveals that Bataraza,
Quezon, Brookes Point LGU
gave additional monthly
honorarium as support on
their Arabic teachers where as
the municipality of Espanola
had given none due to lack of
municipal fund.
Another problem is the
additional learning loads of

pupils and the administr ative

Presently this was the highest

an outnumbered teacher-pupil

The given information

about rabies awareness and

and record speaks, with 279 cases
as of December alone of this year
it just yielded almost the same
result before another year ends.
Sci Club declares war against rabiesAlmost 90% of patients were
children. This was the ndings
disclosed by the Rural Health
Unit of Espanola for the cases in
relation to dog bites.
We always encourage the
victim to complete vaccination
however because of lack of
nancial matters some settled for
two vaccines only of which the
RHU given free, out of three to
four shots required. If this happen
the former shots would be useless
as they will be back to zero
Catherin Barroma, municipal
nurse said during an interview.
Being almost 100% fatal,
rabies ranks the 10th in causes
of mortality in the world. Many
of the fatalities were attributed to
dog bits where 30 to 60 % of the
victims are children under age of
15, according to WHO although
the incidence of rabies in the
country has declined somewhat
in recent years, disease rates per
100, 000 continue to be higher
in the Philippines than those
of neighbouring countries. In
fact as of 2010 World Health
Organization (WHO) declared
that the Philippines ranked fourth
among with the highest cases in
the world. (Ajera S. Tadi)

You need two components to have

heat of warm air. Since heat rises thewarm air is pushed up into the sky
and can cause
a large swirling

The moister of the ocean coupled

A mother comes up with the cureNecessity is truly the motherof inventions.
This was proven by a
woman when at age of 12 she had
already come up with the needed
ingredients to help her paralyzedgrandfather back into normal. She
was a natural born manghihilot
as goes with the local term. Just by
mere observing with the other folks
in their locality Jane had created
her own version of ointment which
later she named Juana Wonder Oil.
Juana Wonder Oil was an
ointment composed of coconut oil,
native ginger and yellow ginger
(turmeric) with some secret herbs.
She claimed using the same oil
her grandfather gets well from
being paralyzed. They heated the
oil at a tolerable level then used
it to gently massage or reex the
paralyzed part. Now as a licensed

The home made ointment was
paled yellow with very slight aroma
of coconut oil she said the ointment
was also good for feet withvaricose veins, to give relief to
muscle spasm and to comfort
rheumatism among folks.
Jane Gomez 45 year-
old mother of 4 children

by the desires to help
other people now had
successfully proven
that the medicines
could only be
found within

to come across with such kind

Trivia:
and Ella Sla came up with a hair lotion
possibly could stimulate hair growth
and prevent hair from baldness.
The formula was tested under
10 volunteered grade six pupils
including their research adviser
Lolita Tiron applying the mixture
for seven consecutive days to be
applied before taking a bath.
Related problem encountered
was how to make the mixture
remains unspoiled without
damaging each natural capacity to
cure. The researchers for the main
time recommended that the product
should be refrigerated to make it
stay fresh. Further investigation was
suggested to make the mixture stay
unspoiled for longer time.
Using the combination of
these materials the researcher hope
to help find the solution for major
hair problems of people in the
community and at the same time
introduced livelihood to local folks.

According to our Grade
VI teacher who happened to bea participant on the Reg. NAT
seminar, on Puerto Gallera
(though we were not the
lowest) she said it was not just
about a GMRC- like activity.
We often have this so-called

magic. (If there was)
According to Ms. Tiron
(grade VI adviser) their
speakers said the NAT issues
was not just for Grade VI
teachers but started from the
grade I up to higher grades, if
the foundation was at its best
then they can reap its effect
year after years.
All must give their best to
every child; I myself recognized
the effort of my teachers. If
they gave their best then a big
part came from us also, we
(the pupils) should help our
teachers to mold us not only to
be intellectua lly good but themost important thing was the
VALUES that they taught on us.
This coming March we
will make new records, hoping
our school and our teachers
might be proud of us. That we
can have another higher point
without sacrificing our souls.
For all of my batch in grade VI
we should work hard and help
our selves to achieve greater
goals. Allah will bless us!
If you dont understand what you read then you dont
know how to read at all.
This research revelation became the new standard
for education. Reading comprehension is the heart and
goal of reading, since the purpose of reading is to gather
meaning from the printed page. If the pupil says words in
a passage, without gathering meaning, one would hesitate
to call it reading.
Under the schools Phil-IRI or Philippine Informal
Reading Inventory of 2011,out of 365 pupil tested slow
reader were 276 and 333 were comprehension frustrations.
For 2012 Phil-IRI as pretest tested on 377 pupils, only 178
were slow reader and 200 comprehension frustrations.
Base from the given data the school may hit a little
improvement yet still far from better but how long will it
guarantee an ascending performance in the yearly Phil-
IRI?
The DepEd as pursuing its Every Child A Reader
program, the school was doing its best to complied with
the it ,recently it opened a schools mini library in order
to develop better comprehension for pupils by developing
their habit of reading.
However winning the battle for reading comprehensions
requires a lot not just merely on industriousness of teacher
and availability of library. The school as of today have 516
pupils with only 9 regular teachers and 3 parateachers.
Considering the ratio of pupils per teacher such example
on 77 Grade IV with one teacher the quest for winning the
battle might be so hard.
Submitting yearly Phil-IRI is not enough the DepEd
should also take actions for the needs of the school
such us lack of teachers if it really want to deliver quality
education. While the school should always put the battle
for comprehension as its priority.

fate or karma. Solitos mother
was from the Palawan tribe
of Palawan.
Busong is a must

by Aureous Solito. The story
was about the journey of Punay
(played by Alessandra De Rosi)
and his brother Angkarang
in search for a healer for the
formers wounds on her body.
Throughout the lm, different
people helped carry Punay in a
hammock because she cannot
step on the earth. It was later
