Teacher's teacher

 While there was a Teachers' Month Campaign, that began in September and ended on  October 5, 2009, the College of Teacher Education in Bukidnon State University, City of Malaybalay, still celebrates Education Week every first or second week of December every year. For this school year 2009-2010, our theme is inspired by ABS-CBN's "boto patroller": Ako ang Simula so ours is: "Ikaw, Ako, Tayo ang Simula". 

Some of the Education students were encouraged to write their insights on the theme. Some excerpts are worth noting:" While we can urge others to do his or her share to choose the right leaders this coming 2010 election, we can already do something now by throwing one's garbage in the garbage bin or studying one's lesson to come to class more prepared and participate more actively during class discussion. . ."With Peace as the main topic in our subject, the song, Let There be Peace On Earth And Let It Begin With Me, jibes with the theme that one does not impose peace to be given by others but that it begins with me."

As teachers who belong to the College, we made the celebration  more meaningful by giving tribute to one of our colleagues who died last May 2, 2009. Dr. Genoveva Melendez Ablanque was awarded the Most Outstanding Teacher. She touched many lives and her students shared how she changed their lives for the better. Tears were shed but as one of those who paid tribute to her we focused on our faith that she is now with Our Creator and that we are the ones who need her guidance. Ma'am Bebang, our prayers for your eternal happiness with the Lord.

Tomorrow, Thursday, Teacher's teacher will be the chairperson of the Board of Judges in DHABS contest:: Dancing, Hosting, Acting, Band Instrument Playing and Singing talents in one person. More info about the results of the contest in the succeeding blogs.
So to all Education students, say it with conviction: "Ikaw, Ako, Tayo ang Simula.". Three cheers for CTE: Hep, hep, hurray! Three Cheers for CTE ( College of Teacher Education) declared Champion during Intrams 2009, Hep,hep,hurray!! Three Cheers for CTE, Education being the flagship of Bukidnon State University, Hep,hep,hurray!!!
