             Republic Act No. 10661 titled  an Act Declaring the Month of November of Every Year as the National Children’s Month  and DepEd Memorandum 75, s. 2021 titled  2021 National Childres Month Celebration,  for the Welfare of Children (CWC) in celebrating the 2021 National Children’s Month (NCM) with the theme, “New Normal Na Walang  Iwanan : Karapatan ng  Bawat  Bata  Ating   Tutukan ”.   Poster by John Gabriel Aquino  The pandemic that struck us holds nothing but terror and nightmares—locking down schools, cities, and towns, as well as the dreams and opportunities of children, snuffing out the "life" of us. But more than that, this new normal brought light to new beginnings: a call for tremendous academic recovery with the expansion of digital platforms for education, and most importantly, a race to the development and procurement of vaccines with high efficacy. We are hoping that this va...

       I lived my 16 years near the seaside in Mindoro, Vigan City. The main livelihood there is fishing. Mindoro is also known for its fresh seafood, and vendors in the city proper would use the name of our barangay to sell their wares. When I was in elementary school, I always encountered multiple trucks loaded with dripping black sand that was taken away from the sea. And my ancestors always taught me that the sea was very far away, but as time goes by, the sea eats the fields little by little. It is very sad, but it is not too late for us to make a change, to make our environment sustainable, to be grateful, and to appreciate its beauty.           As a part of a community, it is important to play our roles and to be engaged in small activities in our locality. We can start by setting ourselves up as a role model for others. We can make a big difference in our world by simply cleaning, saving energy, following waste segregation, perf...

This school year brings a new modality of learning, which means we need to face new challenges. Blended learning is quite hard for me because I live near the seaside. The signal or connection is hard to find and sometimes it disappears during my classes, and I cannot do anything about it. Although some of my teachers are very considerate and don’t require you to join the class if you have a poor connection, some of the teachers check attendance. This makes me curious about what the situation is for the learners that are not financially stable. Besides the weak connection, the main problem that I face these days is a lack of motivation. During my freshman and sophomore years, I used school activities, events, and programs as a motivation to study hard. Events such as DepEd Day, High School Day, Recognitions, Completions, Camping and so on add more excitement to learning. We all dreamed about attending prom, having a sleepover because of research or thematic, and the iconic events of the...

Covid-19 has had a variety of effects on the globe. Many individuals have been harmed, and millions of lives have been squandered. Because of the epidemic, transportation, labor, material production, and education have all been halted. It is difficult to live with this virus since the world has changed, but people are adjusting. From preventing kids from learning to ensuring their safety, education offers an answer. Students will learn in a new way using modular classrooms and online classes. While online classes professors will lecture through an online meeting, modules are accessible through link or delivery. The quality of this sort of class isn't great, and as a student, I'm running out of time when it comes to completing responsibilities. Other information and remarks are missing from the module, making it difficult to respond. The internet connection in online classes is an issue, and it is difficult to learn if the connection and communication between professors and stud...

Our country, the Philippines, has been hit by  several  natural disasters in recent years. Strong typhoons, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes are all possibilities. The impact on civilians is significant; houses and other structures are damaged, and some are  destroyed . The Philippines' prognosis is improving because to a strong economic development trajectory, crucial internal reform measures, and active diplomacy.     Because we are located on the Pacific Ring of Fire, it is our responsibility to survive the harsh character of these calamities. The Philippine government and various humanitarian organizations collaborate to rescue individuals who have been harmed during and after the disasters. Providing basic basics, particularly food, to those who had been harmed. News reporters will  be always active , informing people about the weather, if a typhoon is approaching, and other natural disaster activities so that people may prepare and keep aware. Educ...

  Dear President Duterte, Good day President! Congratulations on your term, thank God it is about to end. I hope you won't run for the position vice president. For the coming months, I am looking at your actions towards the situation of learners in online classes. In particular, the Philippines is one of the countries that didn't resume face-to-face class this school year, along with Venezuela. It's been more than a year since your first statement about suspending classes due to the pandemic, yet learners right now are still facing difficulties, problems, and inconveniences in learning. You don't care if no one graduates, schools tend to give lower quality of education. Less attention can be given to individual students and it is difficult to motivate them. We need to make sure that these learners will be properly educated and obtain the knowledge and skills needed to ensure social and economic growth. Philippines is the only country that hasn...

I'm an artist, I excel at mediums like charcoal, graphite, and oil paint. I am artistic, soft and sensitive.

And I also post my artworks to inspire other artists to continue their passion for art. 📏📐 In at 12 o'clock in the daytime on October 14th, 2005, my mother birthed me into this world. My name was derived from my grandfather's name, Juan, which is John in E nglish, and Gabriel is obviously derived from the archangel.
