DIY: Making Tarpapel Using MS Word

My First Tarpapel (3x3)

Classroom teachers are usually spending their own money for visual aids, bulletin board display, poster and even tarpaulin.

But for all you know, they're resourceful. They have invented an economic, do-it-yourself visual aids or the like. And they call it "Tarpapel"

Tarpapel is made of a certain graphic design printed on several pieces of paper and is being patched one by one to form like a poster or streamer. When you look at it in a distance, it resembles to a tarpaulin. It is a do-it-yourself graphic tool for lesson presentation, for attractive bulletin board display, among others.

I had tried making one. For the first time, I created 3x3 "Back to School" poster.

Two Effective Visual Teaching Principles

visual aids in teaching

Using instructional materials (IMs), the teachers could be able to make their pupils learned. This had been exemplified by the teachers of Cubay Elementary School, Division of La Carlota City in their 3rd day (October 27) in-service training (INSET) held at Learning Resource Center (LRC) in the said school.

Mrs. Ofelia N. Ayungon, special teacher of Cubay Elementary School discussed before her fellow classroom teachers some principles in using the different media; thus letting their pupils absorbed the lessons efficiently in the 3rd day morning session of their summer training.
