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.

The place of observation took place at my work, before I clocked in for the day. I work at Oakwood Methodist Preschool/Daycare. I went in to the daycare at about 9:00, which is just free play/ breakfast time in the infant room. The infant room I observed in was a little different than the CDRC, because the infant room is from 7 weeks old to 18 months old. There was not really a place for me to be

It was 9:45am on Tuesday, October 20th, 2015: The children were taking part in an art activity. On the piece of paper, each child had a drawn out bubble lettered number one. They were given each given four popsicle sticks and a small pile of glue. The teacher instructed them to use the paint brush to spread the glue out inside the number one and then place the popsicle sticks on top.

Within my ten hours of observation, I witnessed an Early Childhood, Childhood, and Middle Childhood classroom. Through the duration of these hours, I visited School 17 and School 30. My seven hours at School 17 consisted of experiences within an Early Childhood and a Childhood setting. The Early Childhood hours occurred in a Pre-Kindergarten classroom setting with Ms. Mitrakos. The Childhood observations occurred in a first-grade classroom with Ms. Hordan. My three hours at School 30 involved experiences within a Middle Childhood setting. These observation hours occurred in a 6th-grade math class. My observations within both schools inspired me to continue my passion for Early Childhood Education.

An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted on 1/6/2016. I arrived at the operation which is located at 3422 Richmond Rd, Texarkana about 12:57 pm. I was greeted by Comekia Island, the person in charge while director was at lunch. I handed her business card and then explained the purpose of my inspection and reviewed the subchapters I would be observing. Roshonda Epps the director arrived approximately a hour later.

The classrooms had few desk and lots of mats and rugs for the children. The classrooms were very open lots of room to move around for independent learning the teachers their act as a guide for the students. That was very different from the child care center I attended. I really did not like the no interaction policy with the students. I wanted to play with and interact with the students like I did at the First United Methodist Child Care Center. At first I thought the no shoes inside rule was really weird and it made me uncomfortable. After being explained to why they did that I thought it was an amazing idea and that all schools should do that. The Montessori school was like a culture shock to me after being at the First United Child Care Center. The Montessori students were so independent; going to the bathroom whenever and on their own, and the Child Care Center the kids were totally dependent on the teacher even for bathroom purposes. As a future teacher I would prefer to work at the Child Care Center rather than the Montessori school, but I would rather have my own children attended the Montessori school over the Child Care Center. I would have to have interaction with my students but I love the learning curriculum at the Montessori

Observing in the children’s pre-school was an incredible opportunity because I had the ability to physically see sign language being practiced in the classroom. It was exciting to see the children signing and speaking to both the teacher and the graduate students in the pre-school while having normal conversations with their peers. Before coming to college, I never had any exposure to sign language, so being able to see a group of children learning curriculum with both of these communication methods was intriguing and fun to watch.
