“Student engagement is the product of motivation and active learning. It is a product rather than a sum because it will not occur if either element is missing.” Elizabeth F. Barkley

Being a teacher is pretty tough but seeing the students learn is rewarding and fulfilling. This is one of the remarkable things that a teacher will cherish in the field of teaching. ![IMG20221111100431_00.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/naymhapz/Ep3dmicbmA18KxKK3pFhHnurpMdTEyDwBsa921wXJB1KLukQPo3wvSv4J6vhiQgG7YV.jpg) Good day Hivers! Have a blissful day! Actually, this is my first time to post in our community. It's pretty amazing to share my experience here as a devoted teacher. I woke up early last November 11, 2022, to get ready for school. The school was a little bit busy that day because of the culminating activity which was participated by the students in the secondary department. ![IMG20221111100326_00.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/naymhapz/EpJXaqMdDSMCFfRdhAAF5JL7TcNNKEWYSer6w6F1VVARAxAxszKdgmDHEsSeimHGo64.jpg) ![IMG20221111100504_00.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/naymhapz/EoGyKgpUWFPAc743agfyEGQUxN6AvHvjdo1Dg9PWJ7AoYvW6pLFF5j27yqDVxi1jPha.jpg) Boredom strikes if the students are used to being placed inside the four walls of the classroom every day. Although the main focus is teaching academics, involving in different school activities will make learning more fun and engaging. This is also to unwind them from the lessons which are too difficult for them. Various school activities help in boosting the students’ socialization and confidence. In such a way, they can expose their skills and talents and will sharpen these without hesitation. ![Sage Green Feminine Natural Enjoy Your Life Photo Collage(1).png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/naymhapz/48bX7n16PmHjQGd9ZTCtvfz7LgJ4kQYGsdNiwhFx8Q3asFQiRpdgq8i3JkyGiGjdGC.png) Learning by doing is more remarkable and admirable. ___ **Spot the school site where engagement of learners is realized** Now, welcome to the school where the surrounding is inviting, where learning is full of joy, and where learners are gaining not just inside the classrooms but also thru their engagement in certain school fun-filled activities.
