Baby Child Observation

I will be observing a seven-year-old child for my project. What I have learned from being a parent and watching my kids as they grow up the social emotional, physical and intellectual changes that occur in children between birth and the end of adolescence are that they all progress at individual intervals from dependency to increasing individualism. Because these developmental changes may be strongly influenced by genetic factors and events during prenatal life, genetics and prenatal development are usually included as part of the built in parenting skills we all possess. When children are born they have no sense of fear but quickly develop a fear of what

Today is my first day doing my practice observation in the Infant Room Classroom Number 3, my fears are how the infants go reaction to see me because I am new person for them that they never have seen before, how the teacher go feel to have a student in the classroom, if they will support me and cooperate with practice, and how the parents will response to see a new teacher in the classroom, I know for my teaching experience that parents are very special about the people who is round to their children.

On Wednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1500 hours I was dispatched to 119 S. Main St. for an assault in progress. Schuylkill County Communications (COUNTY) advised me it is being reported that a male is assaulting two females out in the street. COUNTY advised me that screaming and yelling can be heard in the background on the telephone.

This class was very challenging, interesting, and informative. First, students must push themselves to expand their knowledge and help themselves become more inquisitive, critical, reflective, and problem solve. As future professional nurse practitioner, we are striving for integrating clinical judgment skills. The knowledge gained in the textbook must be applied in the clinical settings without discrimination.

Toddlers and preschoolers are at different developmental stages, and therefore require their teachers to use different approaches and techniques to further learning. I completed my observations at the Bright and Early Children’s Learning Center where I observed a toddler classroom and a preschool classroom. My observations took place from 8:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. on the 21st and 28th of September. The first day that I observed I was placed in the toddler classroom which had two teachers, Miss Ashlynn and Miss Miranda, and six students, most of whom were two years old. In the preschool classroom there was one teacher, Miss Stephanie, and eight students, each of whom were 3 years old or 4 years old. While the rooms were physically similar, the teachers used different strategies and activities to appeal to the different age groups.

Conducting an interview with someone makes you see things in many different perspectives and in a new light. The person I interviewed saw nursing as a broader term that saw things in a different way even though she has just started. She knows that special people need to take roles in being a nurse. I interviewed my aunt, Ann Juknevicius. She is 30 years old and she has been a nurse for 2 years in Illinois now. Relatively she is a new nurse. One of the main reasons why I started the nursing program is because I look up to Annie a lot and she showed me so many different perspectives on how to look at people, different situations, and the way you handle things. I thought that it would be a great interview session to see if Annie’s expectations were the same as the nursing reality.

Obiel Macedo, a one year and seven month old infant accomplished many tasks on the developmental checklist. I went to his house, his mother and baby sister were present while I was with him. We sat down and I handed the infant a small container filled with different size blocks. Immediately he grabbed the container, poured out the blocks and began to build a tower quickly. Once he was done creating the tower of blocks, a few seconds later he knocked it down vigorously and started all over again. Then, I handed him a red crayon and a blank sheet of paper, but instead of writing on the paper he went up to the wall and scribbles spontaneously.

All children are different in their unique way. The goal of this assignment was to observe different children in an uninterrupted environment. Although all the children observed were the same age, they all acted differently during their observation. The differences in the way we react to different situations are what make us human. These differences can be explained through the theories that different psychologist have developed over the years. Some children react better to things like praise from a teacher or being able to be creative in the activities that they are participating in.

When she finished a successful completion of 18 hours or more, she will be eligible for a nurse assistant certification. There were a total of three session, her groups was number 8 and she has an instructor named Fugate. It was assigned in clinical rotation depending on what date and times the students picked like Jennifer’s date, December 16. She excitedly explained the fact that she became more proactive and optimistic. As she learned the daily lives of the patients, she said, “There was no doubt that each and every patient expressed different verbally or by using their gestures to communicate; they must also be treated with love and care.” She really understood and acknowledge that helping others can be enjoyable. For instance, these practices like communication, observation, and documentation skills will useful to recover injured or disabled people. She knew some of the situations that the residents went through. While studying and interacting with patients, she proclaimed, “This was a necessity to get a basic grip on what you’re doing in the future and what you’re going to get into” Basically, this will get her a certified nursing assistant with college credits and opportunities. For those who never tried it before, the people may regret their decisions since they missed out on a new and intoxicating experience. A significant information that people needed to be informed and

Subject “Chris” is a 7 year old middle class Caucasian male. Observation is taking place in the child’s home over the course of two separate afternoons. Chris is a friendly and well spoken child who is small for his age. Chris is the youngest child in his family and both observations take place while his siblings are home. In each case one or both parents are absent.

The video shows an instructor for the daycare sitting on the ground with three stunning toddlers attracting in an activity. The video indicates that the teacher has a plastic bottle (the bottle is empty) that is left open and have a few wood clothespins. The three toddlers have as a minimum one or two clothespins each. The daycare trainer holds the plastic bottle in front of each infant individually with hoping that one of the infants would place the wood clothespin thru the opened pinnacle to finally drop the clothespin inside the plastic bottle. The video shows that the trainer has a plastic bottle (the bottle is empty) that is left open and feature some wooden clothespins. The three babies have at least one or clothespins each. The daycare instructor holds the plastic bottle in the front of each infant in my opinion with hoping that one of the toddlers might location the timber clothespin through the opened top to ultimately drop the clothespin inside the plastic bottle. By the stop of the video, the daycare trainer is aware that the third toddler (the 1/3 little one with the blond hair) is having an entirely tough time setting his clothespin inside the plastic bottle. The instructor noticed that he has about three clothespins in his hand which she took away two, leaving him with one clothespin, the teacher then shakes the plastic bottle to get his attention, once more using that time he eventually positioned the clothespin inside the

I went to the Gracepoint Church’s Fall Fest on Halloween eve. Many interactive booths were prepared for the children, such as ring toss, dance floor, fishing for rubber dolphins, bean bag toss, beading station, and face painting. I hid behind my roommate who was working at the face painting booth that night. The location was perfect because of the high chairs at the booth gave me an easy view of the families in line and the children at the face painting station. I focused this observation on one pair of siblings, whom I will refer to as Jane (5 years old) and John (6 years old). Most children were impatiently waiting in line with their parents, including Jane and John. The two children discussed profusely what painting they wanted on their

The key to understanding children is observation. As observers, we begin to look for daily patterns in their behavior. Once patterns of behavior are recognized, the observer can then give positive guidance in securing the child’s developmental needs.

Today I was very frustrated in the infant’s classroom. Because two of babies were crying for long time, I asked to teacher Maria why the babies are crying, and she told me because they are teething. They look very irritable. She told me that one of the babies had runny nose and the other baby had fever and diahrrea.

For this child observation, I decided to observe my younger brother Jacob. Jacob is 5 years old, but he insisted that I write that he is almost 6. He is also in kindergarten this year and loving every second of being a loud, rowdy boy. I suppose I am at an advantage in this observation since I have seen the numerous developments in Jacob’s life thus far.
