Analyzing David's Involvement In My Classroom Observation

1. Describe the organization and physical setting of the classrooms you observed. Pay particular attention to safety and accessibility, the physical arrangement of the room, the classroom environment and appearance (Danielson 2e):

1. The only change in the classroom was all of the children special notes from their parents, "My child is Special because" The teacher posted them on all them were posted on the door.

After learning an extensive amount of information on my physical education teacher, Andrew Wagner, I came to realize that this profession suited me quite well. Various aspects of him and his interests aligned with mine and I was able to observe this similarity while completing the Big 6 Research project. After reading over Mr. Wagner’s informative sheet relating to his career, I became more informed on certain aspects pertaining to this occupation including the required education, the skills needed, the job outlook, the salary, and a diversity of other fact related to being a physical education teacher. More specifically, Andrew Wagner is a person who takes a liking to physical activity and gives instruction very directly. As a student in today’s

Our objective this week was to observe classroom procedures. Miss. Williams expects her students to always stay on task even when she is not in the room. She anticipates that the students are quiet when they work independently and to not veer off onto another direction by talking to one another.

At the end of the lesson Students are going to be able to describe where they live using the verb "vivir" and "tener" in Spanish. During unit two, they been using the these verbs and in the beginning of the lesson they answer the "Do NOw" activity where I asked then: ?Donde tu vives? They answer the question in Spanish and used the verb in the correct tense. After that, they answer a listening question where they had to identify the part of the house using the vocabulary proposed at the beginning of the lesson. Finally, they started a project where they had to create a Floor plan and describe their ideal house. For this activity, they have to use the verb "tener" in present tense. The completion of these activities ensures the acquisition of the new vocabulary and the verbs tense. It is important to mention, that this lesson will continue next week because students need more time to complete their DOL activity.

Every time I go to a salon I am very open about my life with my beautician. It made me wonder; Am I the only one who does this? I set out to observe this behavior by scheduling a pedicure. What better way to complete a homework assignment and to be able to observe without looking conspicuous? The salon I went to had ten pedicure chairs. As I walked in, I noticed that I was only the third customer there for a pedicure, so it looked as if I would not be able to observe what I came to see. An employee of the salon asked me to pick out my nail color, have a seat in chair number 7, and then proceeded to ask me what type of pedicure I wanted. After I chose my color and type of pedicure they then asked me if I wanted anything to drink. They offered me water, soda or wine! I thought about the

For this math assignment I chose to study a first grade classroom. Mrs. Cooper a first grade teacher told me that she would be honored to have me observe her instruction for as many days as I needed to complete my assignment. When I first stepped into her classroom, Mrs. Cooper told me that I could look around and one of the first things that I saw was a series of posters to help children in mathematics. The posters had the following message:

This lesson was from the Math Investigation books that are provided to the teachers every year. This was the start of a new unit, which was unit five. I was a little nervous to start off the unit considering this would be how the students view the rest of the unit. I had some trouble reading about the lesson when I first saw it. I got a little confused and thought about why the cube train was involved. I ended up looking ahead and seeing how it fit in to other units and it made a lot of sense.

I conducted my observations at the HUB, outside where the tables are located. I decided upon this location due to its large size, alongside the fact that it is placed in a spot where most people have to pass by while walking to class. Additionally, I decided to sit outside the HUB rather than inside due to the fact that I would be exposed to more people, sounds, and smells; I would be out in the open rather than a closed setting. Almost every UCR faculty member takes pride in mentioning how diverse the UCR campus is, however, I had not truly recognized how diverse the campus is until I sat down and focused on observing other people. I noticed people of all sizes, skin colors, hair types, speaking a wide array of different languages and eating

The following data was gathered while fulfilling duties as a principal intern at Theresa Bunker Elementary School. The data was observed during five to seven minutes of classroom observation as part of a walk-through in the spring of the current school year. My cooperating supervisor for my internship was able to go on these walk-throughs with me in order to have a productive reflection meeting afterwards. This elementary school has two of each grade level from Kindergarten to sixth grade. Since it was more feasible in this small school setting, I actually was able to do a walkthrough in eight classes. Here I will report my observations from five of those walk-throughs. As I went in to each room I was looking for four

Classroom observation is a main approach of teaching research. Scholars or researchers use video to record the real whole class and observe the teachers and students’ actions, words and the efficiency in the class. Though the observation, they analyze what approach is more suitable. This paper will select video 5 and video 3 as the material to do the classroom observation. Different aspects such as teachers’ responds, questions, instructions notes and students’ behavior will be addressed to analyze the efficacy of this class.

Conducting classroom observations are very important to the prospective teacher. Observing helps show how experienced teachers manage their classroom. For this observation it was important to notice how the classroom was arranged, how the teacher interacted with the students, the teacher’s management style, and interview the teacher.

I conducted my observation on November 3, 2017. I observed a fourth-grade language arts class taught by Robin Smith. Mrs. Smith exudes a love of reading and knowledge from the very moment you meet her. Mrs. Smith’s classroom is a warm, accessible, print rich environment complete with anchor charts, a word wall, and alphabet chart. Mrs. Smith and her classroom environment inspire each one of her students to find a passion for reading and learning. Mrs. Smith demonstrates an understanding of the social-emotional environment, and its importance to the success of a child’s learning experience. Although the social-emotional environment is much harder to grasp and see it is just as important as the physical environment. Mrs. Smith’s approach for classroom management demonstrates how a positive social-emotional environment can lead to an effectively well managed classroom.

When observing pupils, you need to use appropriate methods of observation as directed by the teacher. Observations can take place during lessons or in the playground. Observations and assessments should cover all relevant aspects of pupilâ€TMs development including physical skills, language and communication skills. Your observation and assessments must always be in line with the school policy for record keeping, as well as observing a childâ€TMs development you also need to help the teacher assess the childâ€TMs development based on your findings and other reliable information. You must be able to make formative and summative assessments and record your assessments as appropriate to the policies and procedures of your school. Formative assessments are initial and on-going assessments. Formative assessments identify future targets for the

There are many things that stand out since I have been attending the inside- out course on gender at the OSU. One observation that I find myself clinging on to is the mere fact that our classroom location has been changed from the Outside unit in the visitation building. Honestly, I wonder if it had to do with the correction officer 's discretion based on our gender. They may assume that women are fragile and defenseless thus entering in in all male 's prisons could be uncomfortable. Furthermore, the individuals who work for the prison system, may perhaps assume that we should be protected from the intimidations of prison and be in a neutral environment. Additionally, the corrections officers would continue to warn us every Tuesday before
