Homeroom Guidance
Quarter 2 – Module 5
My Road to Success
Learning Objectives:
  • At the end of this module, you are expected to:
1.share to others the relevant lessons that you
have learned from school and from community;
2.explain how others affect or influence your
knowledge and skills; and
3.appreciate the importance of lessons learned
from school and from community.
• Can you imagine how hard it is to climb up
  a coconut tree especially if it is your first
  time and you are the first person to climb
  it? It will probably amaze you to see how
  farmers take their easy way up to those tall
  trees. The first climb is the hardest
  because the person who climbs first marks
  and cuts slits on the bark of the tree that
  will serve as foot stop for the next person
  who will climb it.
  This is similar to your experience as a
learner. Your family, the school and the
community can help you in determining
the path that will lead you to success. In
this module, you will learn how other
people in your lives and in the
community can influence you.

                                              she asks me to assist
                                              her. She explained some
                                              of the procedures.

         L.E.A.R.N.I.N.G: My Road to Success
  Academic success is not merely having high grades,
excelling in rote memorization, or taking up multiple
courses. Academic success is a good mix of learning the
lesson and at same time making sense of what you have
learned. How will you know if you are learning and if you
will be able to achieve academic success? Here are
some important points that you can take note about
L.E.A.R.N.I.N.G
List down important information; more
than the required notes as part of the
academic requirement, it is important that
you utilize note-taking as an important skill
in studying and learning. This will help you
in keeping a record and in the retrieval of
information that you might need in the
future.
Engage in learning activities. These may not always happen
in school or as initiated by your subject teachers. Learning
activities may be any learning opportunity that you may
experience at home, in school or in your community.
Ask relevant questions. Asking questions or inquiry is part of
the learning process. Do not hesitate to ask questions in order
for you to have a better understanding about something that
interests you or about things that may not be clear for you.
Through asking questions, it will be easier for you to make
sensible judgment, and eventually make better decisions.
Read, read, read! Reading is an important skill that
you will use profoundly in your daily life. Make it a
habit to allot an hour or two for reading. Reading will
help you gain better understanding about many
things.
Nurture    your interests. Be with people who
support your plans and interest, and participating in
relevant activities. The people around you can share
information, skills and talents that will better engage
you.
Initiate action. In learning something new, it
is important to act on it. You should not wait
for others to push you to learn new things.
This is the best time to acquire new skills and
to enjoy the huge information available in
books, websites and other materials around
you. You may ask the help from your older
siblings or other family members. Asking
question is an initial action toward learning.
Navigate your direction. Along with initiating action, it is
important that you navigate or plan how you want to
proceed. Take time to make a plan of action and look at
possibilities on how you can apply what you have learned
in your daily life experience.
Get things done. Finishing what you started is a way to
maximize learning. At this point, you may have a lot of
interests and you are eager to learn, however, it is
important that when you start something, you also need to
finish it. Setting a time table will be helpful.
               “Choose                  LEARNING”
• Choose one from L, E, A, R, N, I, N and G. Write down 3 ways on how you are
 going to apply this in this new normal? An example has been provided to guide
 you.
 • Example: R – Read, Read, Read!
     1.I will choose the book that I want to read/ recommended by my
       siblings/family members.
     2.I will set the time in a day for reading (every 4:00 PM); when I am
       done with my homework.
     3.I will make sure that I finish the book before the exams
      week.
• 
  Identify one person who has a big
influence in your motivation to
pursue learning? You may write a
short paragraph (3-5 sentences) or
draw a symbol on a clean sheet of
paper on how the person made you
to learn more.
