During this observation, students were working on a math test or working on assignment. The teacher was reading the math test to a student. Hayden finished his test, and he was drawing dinosaurs. Hayden appeared to be easily distracted. For example, Hayden stopped what he was doing to look around the room when another student tap his pencil and looked around the room when students walked by his desk. Hayden talked to me about his picture and described the picture in detail. He also whispered to himself about the picture. After the teacher prompted Hayden 4 times to begin silently working on an assignment, he began working on a math assignment. Once he completed the math assignment, he read a book about dinosaurs and took an A.R. test on the computer. While reading his book, he regularly flipped between reading and drawing. Hayden frequently fidgeted in his seat throughout the observation. During the observation, Hayden got out of his seat 8 times, and 6 out of the 8 total times went to speak to the teacher.

Soistman will be working on 2 behaviors with Hayden: following directions and Contributing. Following directions will involve Hayden following teacher’s directions without reminders.

Both boys were able to respond in complete sentences. Their responses were appropriate and in separate settings both showed some developmental skills above their current age (Asher was able to replicate with objects and name a pyramid, and state that it was used in building. Benji was able to not only manipulate a book appropriately, but had developed the skill of rhyming as was apparent when his teacher asked him to complete sentences in the lullabies.

There was a tingle that rushed through his entire body when he first touched it. He felt as if he was being watched without him knowing it. He quickly picked it up and tucked it under his armpit so none of the other students would see. He then, with tremoring arms and hands, headed back to his seat. He didn’t care if his teacher asked him about it.
Artifact and Description for S1 edit title Edit I have attached my “Long-Range Plan” as a demonstration of my ability to exhibit biblical principles. This artifact demonstrates my understanding of exhibiting biblical principles because it includes different learning strategies, assessment techniques, and accommodations that could be used to reach a variety of learners within the individual classroom setting. This particular skills outcome is important in early childhood education because my personal and professional behavior can impact the young students view of education for years to come. By exhibiting biblical principles, I can build positive relationships, show care towards others, and practice equality and fairness in my teaching.

When my dad completed his first college physics exam, he felt a rush of relief as he confidently placed his exam on the teacher’s desk. He celebrated his success by embarking on a weekend camping adventure with his friends.

On the other hand, non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) appears to be an antecedent intervention that will more effectively influence the client. Due to the friendly and easy methodology, this procedure will allow teachers and staff to implement this intervention without being clinically trained. Non-contingent reinforcement will allow the child to frequently gain reinforcement non contingent to the problem behavior. This will enhance the development of a more positive learning environment, along with eventually being able to develop more appropriate behaviors, especially if NCR is combined with other procedures such as differential reinforcement of alternative

Classroom Observation Reflection Abrar Hilal University of Oklahoma Tuesday, February 12 Classroom Observation Reflection Special Education Classroom Report The special education classroom that I observed, included the main teacher, two teacher assistants, and ten students with Developmental Delays. The main teacher uses technology to aid the students to learn easy and faster. A smart board is present in the classroom, but the teacher doesn 't use it often as she prefers to use her own handouts and her specially created activities. I think this is effective as she can modify activities better and so that the students benefit from that personalized touch.

A pupil’s behaviour and the persistence and strength of their behaviour is all affected by motivation.
