About Me

My photo
I am a special educator who has recently relocated to Manila. One of my goals for this year is learn more about early childhood education and special education in the Philippines. I have been visiting schools and therapy centers (among others) and providing info here about them. I do not aim to endorse these different centers/schools, but my intention is to provide information in case some people are interested in learning more about them.

St. Uriel's therapy Clinic

I just liked the Jack o'Lantern mobile and the spider web art :).


They provide PT, OT and sped tutorials.  They share the place with Read-ability, a center that focuses on reading programs.

I observed the OT, Teacher Julie, play a game ala "Pinoy Henyo" (is that how you spell it?) with a kid.  It was fun watching him learn social skills, learning about categories and having fun at the same time :). Also realized there is something to be learned from Pinoy game shows and pop culture.  I guess I have to start watching TV ;).

Golden Harvest Institute of Learning



The second visit was at Golden Harvest Institute of Learning in San Fernando, Pampanga. The school has toddler to Grade 6 classes.





They have a separate classroom for the special ed kids in the elementary school level.


They were working on their Filipino language skills while we were there.


Pangnagdaan and pangkasalukuyan.


Materials in the Toddler classroom.



More toys


They were doing attendance (while drawing the kids) and the kids asked their teacher to draw their baby  bottles in too.


The 3's room.


We got to talk to Teacher Bonet (not sure about the spelling of that) but I was impressed about how they work together with other professionals in the field - not necessarily in the same school - Neurodevelopmental pediatrician, OT, PT and speech , to address kids needs.  They are not a sped school but when they observe that a child may have concerns, they make the proper referrals and work as a team.
