In our time, there are numerous academic and extracurricular activities available, such as scouting, home economics, agriculture, carpentry, and dancing field demos, similar to what your child is participating in. We are very busy at school since our teachers have an annual seminar, and students are also assisting teachers in preparing visual aids for the presentation. We also do our gardening. As far as I can tell, the school curriculum is bringing back what is beneficial to both the physical and psychological well-being of students. By the way, I am a baby boomer, thus I am talking about my experience as a student at the time.💕🌷
Maybe we have different because I'm studying at our province but we are in the same school with my son. We have before,reporting, gardening, cooking art but not not like today that they really have a formal program in all subject.Like for example Araling Panlipunan they have a contest of Indigenous People, and also a dance contest of Indigenous. They bring back the history but I'm happy because it can develop their confidence most specifically when they were in college coz they already experienced it during Junior High. They also have film making today like El Filibusterismo and in English. Every week they have activities. Maybe because they are in new generation and high technology.
When I was in grade school, I also attended classes in the province. Yes, we have History or Araling Panlipunan. During my stay there, I was the lead dancer in one of the Indigenous Peoples' dances, and we competed against another provincial school. I also played the iBang Bayan. We have filmmaking about Philippine History and the like. But the usual is the stage plays which I enjoyed so much. Memorizing my lines for the play. This is during the late President Ferdinand E. Marcos, Sr. era. I had all of those experiences during my time in primary school days, and I am grateful that I was fortunate to be exposed to such activities at such a young age. That is why I am happy that they are reviving the old days.💕
