KYSD

Know Your School Day or KYSD is one of the school events that we, students, could participate in our school. Each of the students is given the opportunity to be a teacher, a guidance counselor, a clerk, a principal and a PED chair. All we need to do is fill up the form given by the student council and go to the subject teacher we want to. The teacher would have to approve the form and after which, the student is assigned on what lesson would he or she tackle to the class (specifically, the section where the student belongs is where he or she would teach). After which, the forms are collected by the Student Council and they see to it that each student would have an I.D. At first, the students are recognized and they are to go up the stage, to be recognized and to get the I.D. After the event, they could already start teaching at about two to three days depending on the range or time planned for the said event. When the event has finally come to an end, the students would perform the presentation they prepared for the teachers and give them a token of appreciation.

The activity is participated by anybody who wishes to be a teacher for about two to three days. I personally do not want to be a teacher for the fact that I have a difficulty in presenting in front of many people because I got easily nervous. Aside from this, I am not an effective speaker and for other reason, I do not consider myself as a very smart person and I feel that I do not have the right to teach. I am also afraid that if I teach, my classmates might not understand the topic. Maybe, I will just stick to being a student and not a student teacher.

This kind of activity is helpful for the students to be active in being a teacher and share their knowledge to everybody.
