the future for the next observations. First of all the organization of the data along with the time measurement are improvements that can be made. Instead of measuring five minutes I would measure every 15 minutes, making it four rounds in one hour. Within that hour we can also use a timer so that we don’t lose track of time. Also the time that we had to measure was on a Monday and Wednesday, for the next observation I would add in a Tuesday or Thursday. Since the observation was done on a campus we

Edgemere Observation I got the chance to see three grade levels during the observation. The first grade I got to see was third grade and they were at p.e. and I even though I only got to observe the third grades for 15 minutes, I learned that it’s important that the kids get up and move every day. Also, that by the kids playing they learn how to work with each other. Then when it was time for the kids to go the teacher blew a whistle and all the kids ran and got into two lines. When the teacher

compliant behavior. My second, observation was on April 27th from 9:45 am to 9:55 am. The setting took place in the classroom during math. The student was given blocks to figure out the length of objects, but the student began to throw the blocks off of his desk and ignore all the direction giving by his teachers. The student would verbally say words like “am i gonna get in trouble for throwing these blocks” or “will I have to pick up these blocks” My last observation was during lunch on April 27th

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. Upon speaking to the principal about observing he assigned me to Mrs. Johnson’s

Child Observation 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

Ethnographic Observation TSL 4520  Grading Rubric Background  (Milde, R., 2001) Common wisdom tells us that there are, in general, two kinds of writing: creative and expository. Creative writing tells about feelings, opinions, points of view, things that originate inside the writer. Expository essays tell about facts, things outside of the writer. Essays on literature examine a literary text, a thing outside the writer. Lab reports describe experiments with chemicals and other stuff that really

The observation took place on Wednesday, February 22, 2017. I conducted my observation at Little School of the Desert, located in Twentynine Palms, CA. At this location I observed a 4 yr. old boy named Nicholas. Nicholas is 4 yrs. old. During the observation, the child did not speak or interacted with any other child in the class. Nicholas did not want to use the bathroom if there was another child or a teacher close by. He did speak to his teacher at times, but most of the times, he would

few weeks ago our group sat in the Starbucks located on campus for 20 minutes observing people who sat, stood and walked around. In this time we had four different sets of eyes looking around and taking notes. The following is a summary of our observations to answer the required questions. A difficulty we may have encountered if we would have stayed in the same location longer is people would have noticed. People were extremely busy, but as time went by one girl did notice there was something odd

polite and friendly. These observations were just a few of the many students in the classroom. Each of them had displayed a variety of traits but I choose these four to provide examples of development in early children in the school setting. Many excelled socially, but others had trouble. Many were showing great physical development, but many didn’t. All children develop at different speeds. But these are just a few examples I observed. I hope to continue my observations in my own time and one day

Observation # 1 The purpose of this observation was to identify, if possible, patterns of greetings. With this aim in mind, I spent 1 hour observing people at the first floor of Morris Library in the Deleyte's area. I chose to observe this area on a Tuesday; as a frequent user of Morris Library, I have noticed that crowds spend time at Deleytes from 11:00 to 1:00 mostly on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I started my observation on a Tuesday at 11:00. I took the only table available at that time, unfortunately
