II. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The first few years of a child's life are important for all aspects of their development. Many factors may comprise a child's optimal development, including socioeconomic. Impoverished children lack in nutrition, care, education, medical care and social services, thus creating developmental delays and health problems. Economic factors can affect children's physical, social, emotional and cognitive development and their overall health.

III. EXAMINATION AND DIAGNOSIS

Economic factors specifically poverty is one factor affecting the life of a child. This factor was evident especially in a public school. Different problem arises as you deal with the children.

One role of being a teacher is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of a pupil as well as their problem in order to help them develop their entire well-being positively.

As a grade five teacher, different behaviors were noticed that was normal for a grade five pupil but one of them seemed different.

This pupil was already 12 years old. Even though he was a 12 year old boy, his height did not match his age. He was also malnourished so physically, he was skinny.

He was in a last section and every time his teacher conducted a lesson, he was always inattentive, lazy in doing things such as writing and uncooperative whenever there was a group activity.

In addition to that, he just shouts whenever he wanted to without any valid reason. Sometimes during recess, he just laid down on the floor playing dead. He also looks for his classmates every time they ate their “baon” so as a teacher you cannot helped but pitied him. Everytime he had no “baon” the teacher gave him something to eat or money so that he could buy in a “bilao” for whatever food he wanted to.

As the teacher interviewed him, he told us that his mother was the only

    The teacher sent us, Mark and Sebastian to work at a table in the back of the classroom. I think she did that so we would not interfere with the rest of the class. We worked on math and writing. We did not have any problems solving the math questions. Instead the students seemed to be happy that I could help them individually. Both Mark and Sebastian were quiet and respectful. Mark had concentration problems; for example, while we were doing the math assignment that he had from last week, he suddenly wanted to talk about his toys or any other thing but math. Sebastian on the other hand, was quiet and seemed like he has hearing problems.…
