 WAY TO KEEP FILIPINO LEGACY

 
 
Hey Montessorians!Smile
 
Do you want to know more about Filipino values?
Or do want to help to keep Filipino Legacy? Now, Montessorians read this, keep it in your mind, and put it in your heart because this one can make you proud of.
 
One of the values of a Filipino is the “Bayanihan”. Bayanihan is a Filipino term taken from the word bayan, referring to a nation, town or community. The whole term bayanihan refers to a spirit of communal unity. This spirit is manifested in helping one another during crisis. This is born out of camaraderie, friendship, neighborliness, or plain fellow felling attitude. Bayanihan is also known as “Damayan”. Damayan operates on the same basis of mutual help. The origin of the term bayanihan can be traced from a common tradition in Philippine towns where community members volunteer to help a family move to a new place. The process involves literally carrying the house to its new location. This is done by putting bamboo poles forming a strong frame to lift the stilts from the ground and carrying the whole house with the men positioned at the ends of each pole. The tradition also features a small fiesta hosted by the family to express gratitude to the volunteers.
 
BE A PROUD FILIPINO!

Upclose and Personal !

 
Last Saturday was the 10th eviction night and your teambloggista was there! We managed to get front row seats and sat with Mickey Perz's family and supporters. That's right Falcons! Only the best for you!
 
 
 
    The eviction hall was packed , most of the people were excited! The fans were organized with their banners unfurled . By 10 PM people were very anxious and then voila! the screen was turned on! There was pandemonium and incidentally it was Mickey and Bodie that were featured first . 
 
 
 
   Like our Performing Arts Group , the PBB crew started the show with a prayer. The very flawless Toni started rehearsing her lines while waiting for her cue. Bianca was busy talking with her Personal Assistant and pretty Mariel couldn't resist blowing kisses to fans and posing for the paparazzi ! The floor director started to give instructions and did you know that the audience are not allowed to react when Toni is talking to the housemates?!!! 
 

 
 One minute before the show the three girls were talking with each other.  The lights were on and the eviction hall was literally hotter than ever! Despite the drizzle outside, the lights made the hall very warm! The lights were on , the cameras were aimed at the hosts and the 10th eviction night officially started. Like most of you guys , your teambloggista couldn't wait to see Wendy evicted! At one point the fans couldn't be stopped,  they were cheering for Gee-An!
 
 
 
After voting was announced to be  officially over , there was a  commercial break. During the break Toni started to take a peak at the confidential envelope and we could see Toni shake her head. Also there was a technical mistake when  they flashed Nel's face onscreen and this made the audience react!
 
 
 
While Toni was delivering the news to the housemates about their stay in the house , Mariel and Bianca were watching by the ledge. Toni was telling them that only four will be able to stay and Bodie's name was the first to be announced , followed by Gee-ann , Bea and then ... tension started to mount!  Remember the housemates thought that three of them will be leaving the house that night! Mariel's mouth dropped open in shock, when she heard Bruce's name to complete the fourth spot! 
 
 
 
Nel, Wendy, and Mickey were asked to enter the Confession room . It was commercial break again  and the fans were shouting Mickey's name- yes that's right!
Toni was as composed as ever when she announced that the names saved were in no particular order! Mickey was then told that he was saved from eviction- what a relief!  Then the most awaited part came...we were waiting for Wendy to be evicted! Tension started to build inside  the hall. Wendy's Mom was crying! We were almost sure wendy was coming out! We were in shock when Nel was asked to leave! Wendy's fans went wild and most of the people in the hall were appalled!  Nel was crying when he entered the hall and we were super sad!Cry It was an upset! if you feel the same way, Falcons you better pick up your cellphone and vote for your favorite housemate! Your teambloggista correspondent is voting for Simply the best! If you know who he is... then join us make him part of the big four! Because I guarantee you Falcons if he makes it in the big four your correspondent will definitely be at the Big Night at Araneta to get the latest entertainment scoop. That's right we will be Upclose and Personal with the housemates if Big Daddy makes it!

Did ya know?

Do Snakes Have Ears?

    Snakes don't have ears that you can see. They don't have ear holes either.
So you'd never know from looking at a snake that it has ears. But kind of have an ear that's inside their head. It's located near their lower jaw.
 
    A snake can hear voices but not very well as humans do. What a snake can hear are vibrations that come from the ground. These bound waves passes from the ground to the bones of their jaw and then to the bones of their ear. That's the way snakes picks up sounds.
Animals that have no ears:
Lizard - there are small ear holes behind its eyes.
Mole  - does'nt have ears outside.
Frog   - below and to the side of the eyes. You can even see their eardrums.
Bird    - it has ears hidden below the cheek feathers.
Pardon My FRENCH!
French words we use in English:
- boulevard
- rendezvouz
- excuse
- ocean
- orange
- bouquet
- avenue
- magazine
'Les minots' is French for 'Kids'
'Ou sont les toilettes?' = Where is the bathroom?
'Comment ca va?' = How is everything?
 *one phrase you need to know:
 "Je prend le gateau au chocolat!" , which means "I'll take the chocolate cake!" 
1= un
2= deux
3= trois
4= quatre
5= cinq
*Did y0u kn0w??*
Dolphins swim in circles while they sleep!
they keep one eye open and half of their brain awake
on the outside of the circle  while they are asleep
to look out of predators. After a certain amount of time,
they swim in the opposiye direction, with the other eye open!
Lo0k out Akiko Thomson! 
Rats can swim for almost one kilometer
without resting.('wo0ow!')
And they can tread water for 3 days straight.
Say it with flowers!
In Russia, flowers MUST be given in groups of even numbers,
like 2, 4 or 6 roses. Flowers given in bunches of odd numbers
are strictly reserved for funerals!

Cooolest Mathematician

    

     Wazzup fellow montessorians! Know who is the most mathematically controversial personality here in MdO? Its none other than Mr. Ruben Capinpuyan our algebra, calculus, and geometry teacher. He is also teaching different mathemathical curriculum at Ateneo de Cagayan. He is the type of teacher who would'nt hesitate to fail somebody in his class.Whooo!! Students often times have their pulse running fast upon hearing his name. Oh!! Such a scary fact. Though we tremble when he gives activities,in no doubt students learn much in his class. His students consider him as the coolest mathematician ever. Why?

It's because he never ends his duscussion without a joke. Nobody would surely get bored when he's in front of the class. The most striking part of having him as a Prof. is when we reach college no one would experience having a headache when it comes to mathematics.

Sepak Takraw

Hi there fellow FALCONS!
                        Do you want to have fun? 

Well try this new sport I just discovered,  it is called Sepak Takraw or Kick Voleyball. It is a sport native to Southeast Asia, resembling volleyball, except that it uses a rattanball  which weighs 250 grams and is made of rattan stems and only allows players to use their feet and head to touch the ball. A cross between soccer and volleyball, it is a popular sport in Thailand, Malaysia, Laos and Indonesia. This sport is played on badminton doubles-sized courts and is really entertaining to watch.  The game evolved from a hacky sack-type practice, into the aiming of a kick into a high, suspended net. Eventually, competitive takraw developed, pitting teams of players versus each other across a volleyball-type net.

In Thailand, the game is simply called Takraw (Thai: µÐ¡ÃéÍ, meaning "ball" or "basket"). It is also thuck thay (Lao: "twine" and "kick"), or sepak takraw (Malay: "kick" and "takraw" from Thai).

 Another version of the sport involves the use of bamboo scoops to both toss and catch a ball in a simple game of "catch."

                                                  A sepak takraw ball made out of rattan.

                                                    this is the rattan ball

 

 MECHANICS OF THE GAME:

    A sepak takraw game is played between three regus, or teams, each regu consisting of three players and one substitute. Each game is composed of three sets in the same manner as badminton. Only three players from each side are allowed inside the court while competing but a substitution can be called anytime during the game. However, once a substitution is made, no further substitutions are allowed for the duration of the game.

   In a formal competition, there are two kinds of matches: the regu competition and the team competition.

 

SCORING:

   The match is composed of three sets. The team winning two out of three is declared the winner. All three sets are played in a rally manner. The first two sets are played to 21 points. The team reaching 21 points wins the set. If both teams reach 20 points, the match is extended until a team wins by two points, up to 25. The third set is played for 15 points in rally manner. If both team reach 14 points, it is extended until a teams wins by two points, up to 17. Hmm maybe you'd like to try and give yourself a shot at this sport, but first you'll have to find that Sepak takraw ball!

BATTLE OF THE BANDS

BATTLE OF THE BANDS
              Sponge Cola and Callalily, two of the most hottest Pinoy bands in the hitcharts today.Oh how we love singing to their tunes! Sponge Cola's TULIRO and Callalily's MAGBALIK have been competing for the top spot for weeks this summer of 2007. Recently, Callalily's PASAN, a song that tells "i didn't have to leave you, but i carried you instead", has been sky rocketing to top 1 in the Myx Daily Top10 after its premiere last May. It's oh-so-cute music video shows the characters from the online gaming world. I first heard Sponge Cola's KLSP last 2004. It stands for Kulang Lang Sa Pansin, but they finally got my attention when i first heard GEMINI , its music video is inspired by the love story of Romeo and Juliet. Afterwards, I've been loving it! And I've been listening to their tracks from their debut album PALABAS. Sponge Cola hottie, Yael Yuson also got my attention. Playing the rhythm guitar and as the lead vocal of the band, he has this sweet rakistah voice!.. He's very cute and lovable. Sponge Cola took home most of the awards in the recent Myx Music Awards. They have been tagged as the favorite artist and favorite group.. It's song BITIW which is the official themesong of abs-cbn's Pedro Penduko series, has been awarded as favorite rock video and favorite song. They also sang TULOY PA RIN for Pedro Penduko At Ang Mga Engkantao. Just last year, when I first heard the song STARS, a song by Callalily, I knew that the  group is off to a good start. Days later, I can already hear their song in different radio stations in the city every time I channel surf. Their song touched the hearts of many and girls got "kilig" over the band's frontman, Kean Cipriano. He has good voice quality and good looks too. Many noticed the cute long-haired lead guitarist, Alden Acosta who is left-handed. I found it cute that he plays the guitar the unusual way. The band Callalily is the Myx Celebrity Vjs of the month of June. If you wanna see more of them, better tune in to Myx.
If you wanna get more of the bands' tracks, don't hesitate to have a copy of Sponge Cola's 2nd album, TRANSIT with BITIW as its carrier single and Callalily's debut album from Sony BMG Records, Destination XYZ.

FEATURED SCHOLAR OF THE MONTH

 Hey there fellow Montessorians! Do you want to know our featured scholar for the month? Here she is..

 tentenenen nenen!

 MARIA LIZA CZARINA DAGOT AGPAWA

  Liza, as what most people call was an honor student since birth. Hahah! just joking.. She was a gold medalist way back in kindergarten and grade school. She also graduated as the Class Salutatorian in our elementary years. But when we entered high school, she quickly regained her spot as number one. In the classroom, she is quite noisy and talkative, but is serious when it comes to her studies.. Or should I say, when the teacher arrives.. (hahah! just kidding people..=D) But eventhough she is a blabber, she still manages to maintain her sky-high grades and dynamic leadership. She is also your average teenage girl.. I mean, she still hangs out with her friends, still goes to malls.. You know, the typical things teenage girls do.. And yet her academic performance is not affected at all. She is unlike those nerdy, nose-sticking-to-books kind of intellectuals. But take note, she is a genius herself..

  She was our year representative when we were in our second year, and the current Student Body President. She is also an all-around performer, an award-winning artist and essayist. The Captain of our cheerleading squad, a performing arts group member, and a gymnast. Plus school work and classrom duties. Talk about being busy.

 THE OTHER SIDE OF LIZA AGPAWA:

People often think that she is the shy and quiet type of girl.. My dear people, think twice..(haha!=D) Many of you, i'm sure, don't know this side of her.. But when she's with her friends,she is actually outgoing and crazily wacky. She is fond of imitating things.. A music video, one of her classmates, a monkey, chicken, dog, cat, and even babies (yes, that's right.. She made it up - all original).. She is also fond of EARTH MEASURES and eating NIPS (aw! hahah..her closest friends would know..) This girl is also a die-hard fanatic of Spongecola.. more particularly, Yael Yuzon ( and Yael-look-alikes, right? *lafs). And to finally finish it all, this lady digs our very own "baby hearthrobs" like Monel Rodas and Kent Loi Arancon..

So people,now you know..*wink

A FILIPINO SOLDIER AND A GENTLEMAN

        

    Brave and dignified, Antonio Trillanes IV was recently and officially declared as the top 11th senator in thee election year of 2007 in  the Republic of the Philippines. Yet, as the whole country has been fully aware of, he is a PRISONER!                        

        He was imprisoned by the law against mutinuos acts. Just three years wayback, he led a group of young soldiers to speak about their injustices. He called for sympathy and and understanding for his his men. He was fighting not for his own well-being but sacrificed his safety for his fellows. They were siezed by the government and were detained in a cell. It's now a dilemma, for the government offered amnesty to those soldiers who would turn their backs on the truth they were fighting for. Many conceded and yet  Antonio Trillanes IV stood alone amidst the enemies,  he remained to believe in his past statement and battled for the reality he had struggled for from the beginning. He had suffered unreasonable judgements, infamous for his being a mutiny leader, considered to be a dangerous rebel when he once fought the field and staked his life to death for the country he loves. He had his family far from his side and the worst ever known misfortune that might happen to any father is to loose the chance to see his child for the last time.
        Just as this election is about to end, Antonio Trillanes IV showed the explicit example of endurance, hardwork, patience, principle, courage and that is the spirit of the FILIPINO BLOOD!

Personal Digital Assistant(PDA)

   

     Hey all gadget lovers out there! i was surfing the net when i bumped into this cool gadget and if you're all interested in finding out more about it, just sit back, relax, and enjoy reading this article about PDA. Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are handheld computers that were originally designed as personal organizers, but became much more versatile over the years. PDAs are also known as pocket computers or palmtop computers. PDAs have many uses: calculation, use as a clock and calendar, playing computer games, accessing the Internet, sending and receiving E-mails, video recording, typewriting and word processing, use as an address book, making and writing on spreadsheets, use as a radio or stereo, recording survey responses, and Global Positioning System (GPS). Newer PDAs also have both color screens and audio capabilities, enabling them to be used as mobile phones (smartphones), web browsers, or portable media players. Many PDAs can access the Internet, intranets or extranets via Wi-Fi, or Wireless Wide-Area Networks (WWANs). One of the most significant PDA characteristics is the presence of a touch screen. Isn't this gadget the coolest? it may not be the lastest gadget but it is one of the greatest thing technology can offer!!!

I love my MDO!!!

 

  Last June 12 MdO Highschool opened and your Teambloggista got busy of course!!! Since classes just started we thought we'd ask the excited Falcons what they think about school , teachers , etc. and these are the comments our teambloggista got!
 
I'm glad I made the right choice , MdO highschool is really for me!
( new 1st year student) 
 
I'm finally back at MdO and this time I'll take advantage of all the great things I missed last year! 
( an MdO returnee)

 MDO is my no. 1 highschool and top choice!
(an MdO Flyhigh scholar)
 
School is definitely "cooler" at MdO , our rooms are all with AC and so I pay more attention to my Teacher.  I don't have to worry about how hot it is inside the room anymore plus my classmates are nicer here!
( new MdO 2nd year student) 
 
 
 
Teambloggista also visited MdO main  and the Pre-school site on the 14th of June and survey says... hmm what do you think?
 
 I love my MdO classroom!
(Grade 1 student) 
 
I know that this school is really for me , now I will have to practice speaking English!
( new MdO student)
 
I can work and discover new things with my friends!
 ( Prep Student)
  
I know that its the best for me!
( Grade 4 student) 
 

                Teambloggista would like to thank the students that participated in giving their opinions. MDO is definitely making our learning experience a journey we will never forget.  During our visit at the Main and at the Pre-school we realized that the rooms are not just AC powered but also Learning powered!  yes just like the students we interviewed ,Teambloggista definitely agrees that MdO inspires the very best in all of us!

Understand and Celebrate Philippine Independence Day

June 12 is the date General Emilio Aguinaldo (Philippines' first Republican President) proclaimed the independence of the Filipinos in Kawit, Cavite, in 1898. The celebration of Independece Day is no ordinary celebration, but it's a day on which all Filipino society must pause and reflect on the past, to remember their heroes and heroines who brought freedom to our nation.

HAPPY INDEPENDECE DAY TO ALL!
