Motivation Of Child Observation

Working with children requires us to build positive relationships with them quickly, but also in ways that are professional.

Our Life-span Development class observed a child in class for his social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development on October 2nd, 2017. The child observed for this report was almost seven months old at the time of the observation. His name is Maddox and he seems to be a very happy baby and developing at a normal rate. He was observed in classroom 1143 on Dordt College’s campus. His mother gave consent for this observation and both his mother and grandmother were present for the observation and answered questions about his behavior and development outside of what was observed in the classroom.

The section of the population of interest to be considered for further health research and analysis is children. This argument and premise stem from the fact that children are the backbone of the human society and all attention, and positive energy should be

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.

Lab site was a good opportunity that helped me know many information about children and all the staff in the Cuyamaca center. When I was attending I observed and saw many important things as I need when I will become a teacher, so there are many things that I learned from children while I attended the lab. In Cuyamaca child center there are many children came from different country and they have different cultures and different traditions and in this point I saw all the children have a good respect for each other and I saw all children share and playing together without any problems. And the most important thing that I liked between them I saw the children can solve any problem with each other. For example, I observed children problem solving

To me, social development can be highly enhanced in a daycare environment. The exchange of verbal and non-verbal communication among children can significantly improve their social skills. Play for instance, represents an essential role in children’s development. As emphasized by Hutchison (2015), playing “is a vehicle for developing peer relations.” Interaction throughout playing can teach children skills such as conflict-solving and communication. Certainly, children that interact with other kids at a younger developmental stage might be better equipped for the “real” world compared to children who stay home.

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. When Epps arrived I handed her business card and then explained the purpose of my inspection and reviewed the subchapters I would be observing.

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.

This study is intended to document my observation of a child between the ages of 2-5. The small child I observed is a 4 years old male. Family arrangements consist of the mother being the primary caregiver of her son. Since the child is not old enough to consent to my amateur study, I have received permission from the mother and father. The method used in this clinical report is a naturistic observation in which I went to the family’s household where I recorded his behavior for an hour.

When I was in this program, I found that working with these young children was very rewarding. It was rewarding to me because I felt like I had a positive influence on them and their education. It made me happy to know that I was going to leave a mark on them and potentially help them flourish into a wonderful, well-rounded adult. Some of the challenges that I faced when working with these young children was communicating with them and their parents. Sometimes, the parents would get upset and wonder why we are

Behavior Observed: Upon entering the house Abby politely took my jacket and hung it up on a chair. She then ran up the stairs and asked me to come see her dollhouse. She identified every little thing in her dollhouse as she was showing it to me. She showed me the “windows”, “stove”, “soap”, “mantel”,

During my recent time in the CDC I have seen a lot of things both good and bad. I have visited the Blue, purple and the rainbow room. All of the rooms are different sue to the ages in the children so the disciplinary actions are different. In the blue room, the teacher teaches the children to use their words, that crying Is not the way to get what they want. One day I was in that room and there were two children that were arguing about a toy in the drama center the teacher took both the children aside and asked them who was in the center first, once the question was answered she then asked if it would be okay if the one child was able to play with the toy when he was finish with it. Instead of just yelling at the children for arguing in the

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.

For my off campus lesson observation I was fortunate enough to go visit one of my favorite teachers from high school, Kirsten Galanter. She has been teaching at Evergreen High School for 7 years and teachers family and consumer sciences classes. During high school I took one of her classes every year and she was one of the reasons I decided to pursue a career in education. Through the two classes I observed on Thursday November 30th, I was able to to see how she used different strategies for each of her classes, and then how this effected the students engagement and classroom environment.
