Observation Of A Field Observation

Do the behaviors occur in several settings or only in one place, such as the playground, classroom, or home?

Social and Emotional Development: Developing sense of own identity and wanting to do things for their selves, demanding of adults attention and being jealous of adults attention being shred, reluctant to share play things, acts impulsively, requiring needs to be met instantly, prone to burst of emotion tantrums, enjoys playing with adults or older child who will give attention, beginning to play with others of own age for short periods of time.

My field work was done at two different locations. One location was at Anne Hutchison Elementary School for grades 2 and 5 in Eastchester, New York and the other location was at a daycare called “Kidz Korner” in Mamaroneck, NY for pre-school children. The student’s behavior, student/teacher relationships, level of cooperative learning and level of instructional techniques were different.

The child may show anger or there may be constant crying when he plays with other children.

| 5 – 7 Years: * Enjoys the company of other children; may have special friend(s). * Appears confident and competent in abilities. * May copy un wanted behaviour, e.g. swearing, biting, kicking to gain adult attention.

1. Context/ Introduction: For my third observation, on Monday October 17th, I returned back to the Kean University Child Care Center. Just like my second observation I came for my observation for the hour of 10:30-11:30 am. This time in the classroom there was four teacher aides and the teacher Ms. Kierah. When I walked into the classroom I was surprised when one of the teacher aides told me that Ethan has a lot of energy in class that day. She explained that Ethan had a lot of energy that his listening skills were a little off as well. Once she was done explaining this I was anxious to see this for myself. I saw Ethan was playing at the middle table with one other boy Steve. Quietly, I sat at the table to the right of the middle table and began my notes.

I observed a twenty-four month old named Caiden. He weighs twenty-six pounds and is thirty-four inches tall. He had blonde hair and green eyes. Upon arrival, he appeared very happy, full of energy, and ready to play. I had a puppy with me, so I was very interested to see what his reaction would be. Fortunately, Caiden loved the puppy. Caiden and the puppy were nearly the same height, and Caiden kept tapping the puppy’s head. After playing with the puppy for about five minutes he took off running towards the cows. He ran right up to the fence and started to “moo” at them. He did this for a few short minutes. Next, he ran back to the driveway where his parents were. He began picking up rocks and asking me to hold them. Once he gave me a handful of rocks, he would get his own handful and want to throw them. This activity was repeated about eleven times. After he got tired of the rocks, he went into the barn and started to pick up empty gas cans (the big ones that were about the same size as him). He would drag them from one side to the other. I asked him why he was moving them and with the most serious look on his face he responded, “daddy does it.” Once all the gas cans had been moved to his liking- took a significant amount of time- he started to point to the top of a shelf, saying “that, that.” I eventually figured out he was pointing to a rope. He wanted to put it around the gas cans. Later, his mom gave him some goldfish for a snack. Each time he picked up a goldfish he

The field work that I have done was at the Foundation daycare between 9am and 10:30 am. The daycare is next to the Shaar Hashomayim on Metcalfe and Kensington Avenue in Westmount (o). When I first went to the school I went through the courtyard which had cemented pillars and archways (O) as well as a row of plastic play houses of a variety of colours and sizes (O). The doors are all locked therefore I had to ring the Foundation school doorbell (O). The school has 2 stories (O); the first story is where the daycare (O) is and the second floor is where the elementary school (O) is located. There are 6 classrooms (O) and each classroom has a specific age group (O). While walking to the classroom, there are rows of cubbies and hooks along the walls

on the surface this may be viewed as normal behavior for today's kids, it could be the sign of a neurological effect.

For my second practice observation, I watched an 18-month old boy, who I will be referring to as B. The setting takes place in a classroom where two other children are present, two teachers are there as well, and plus the observers. The room had a dramatic play center because it had a dress-up center and kitchen center. It also had a block center. I observed by watching a 5-minute video from 5:40-5:45 p.m. on January 27th, 2018. B played with a ramp, blocks, bottles, balls, etc. He played with a lot of toys in this short video.

I thought my first day went great. I am located in Cass City at a outpatient rehabilitation facility. My fieldwork educator (FWE) is very knowledgeable and genuine. She is also a 2011 SVSU graduate, which it nice because she is familiar with the program. We only saw two patients today because the last patient of the day did not come. The first patient had a scapholunate ligament sprain as well as TFCC sprain and the other was a stroke patient. For the first patient, I just observed the therapeutic processes as the therapist used fluidotherapy as preparatory method and stretched the appropriate muscles and ligaments. For the second patient, I was able to administer two activity-based treatments that I created. I was super nervous at first but

Last week I asked my contact at the Anchorage School district to send out an email to all the ELL teacher to see if anyone was available to assist me with my field practicum. As of this email no one has responded. Since this month has lot of holidays were school is not in session I became a bit concerned. So I reached out to an English teacher at a private high school who is willing to let me observe her classes. Though the school does not have an English Language Learners program they do have students from Nigeria, Korea, Philippines, and native Alaskan villages. May I please have permission to observe in Mrs. Edmonds class to fulfill the 15 hours for the field practicum?

I observed the two year old baby that I often baby-sit throughout the week. His name is Lincoln and he his at my house from seven til around four every weekday. Although he is very small and seems to be behind on development, he is very smart. He loves to play with his toys, and always has to be doing something. He is very aware of what goes on around him and he interacts with these things very well. He likes to repeat things that are said and done. Especially things I say or do. He calls my mom pretty often, but he seems to know the difference between her and his own mother so I think he does it out of habit, because he’ll usually do it when he is pouting, being ignored, or tired. He talks very well, but sometimes he’ll say something and

Children are some of the most interesting creatures on Earth. At any moment they may do something that makes you laugh. The next moment they may do something that makes you want to crawl under your seat in embarrassment. That’s what drew me to them. I’m around adults all day and all night since starting college. I wanted to sit and observe God’s most precious creation in action. My mother-in-law’s home was the most obvious choice for my observation. She keeps several children, including my sixteen month old son, in her home daycare business. All of the children who are kept there are little boys ages three or under. I chose Friday, August 28, 2009 to analyze how the children interact not only with each other, but also with their

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.
