Classroom Observation Report

Cynthia pretends that she doesn’t have to practice things to get good at them, but in reality, she has to practice a lot to get good at something. She tries to make everyone think that things just come naturally to her and she is just good at things. Squeaky likes people who don’t pretend or put on a mask, but instead people who are themselves and don’t put on a mask. Cynthia likes to pretend and put on a mask, but Squeaky on the other hand, likes to be herself and doesn’t like to pretend to be something she’s not.

The elements of non-fiction writing play a beneficial role when attempting to teach readers. Some, like characterization or style, can add interest to a reader’s imagination, while others, including arrangement and issues just cause readers to produce extra thought. Most people are unaware that the elements of non-fiction writing can even aid them in understanding their reading text better. Olga Khazan, author of “No Spanking, No Time-Out, No Problems,” presents issues, anecdotes, and questions in her article to inspire her readers to follow her specified methods.

Whether Sister Aloysius confiscates a radio from a child so that they may pay attention in class, orders quick appointments with students in her office so that they may return to class, or expresses the desire to avenge her students against the actions of Father Flynn, Sister Aloysius always completes her actions, which may appear rather brash, with the intent of caring for her students. Sister Aloysius never abuses her power as a principal to demoralize her students or risk their safety, proving that she does not exhibit the deficit of caring. Comparatively, Sister Aloysius does not allow her students or other members of the St. Nicholas community to exploit her

4.2. Findings from students’ reflective portfolios Students’ Reflective Portfolios were designed to investigate participants’ individual perspectives, experiences and feelings about the drama activities. In order to have a better insight of students’ perceptions, reflective portfolios contained two types of questions: (a) yes/no questions, (b) open-ended questions. Examples: (a) I enjoy participating to the drama activities in English class No / Yes (b) How did you feel working together with your friends and teacher?

L. Hodge “A Dyslexic Child in the Classroom” published in 2002. According to Hodge (2002) all the children want to know what is going to be taught in the lesson, so teachers are advised to end the lesson with the resume of what has been taught. In this way information is more likely to go from short time memory to long time memory. Teacher is also advised to break tasks down into small easily remembered pieces.

Moreover, Mrs. Welch was a teacher who would understand if you had a particularly bad day, and she would always listen if you needed help outside of the classroom or the school day. One specific event I remember was that she always wanted the students in her class to get along with each other and to not argue over meaningless things. Therefore, if there was any kind of third grade “drama” in our class, she would figure out what the underlying problem was and teach us how to fix it without hurting anybody’s feelings. I find myself able to recall several instances in which she would pull a group of kids out into the hallway to settle a dispute between them that was almost always frivolous, considering we were in third grade.

Also, if Lyra wasn’t forced to go to Mrs.Coulter, she probably wanted to go somewhere else. On the other hand, Jordan has entertained her, but the Gyptians did not. In Jordan, Lyra as a younger child was always entertained. She always played with the scholars. She wouldn’t learn.

using the bronfenbrenner’s model it is important to understand the environment the children were in. The first classroom was that of Miss P and Pb. Miss P is an experienced teacher having

She, however, asks the questions, all the right questions as I learn later on. Stephen acts as a catalyst that encourages the talk. He must have interacted with children for long to be at ease with this bunch!

Also to show how when Holden is alone, he wants someone to speak to, he explained, “While I was changing my shirt, I damn near gave my kid sister Phoebe a buzz, though. I certainly felt like talking to her on the phone. Somebody with sense and all. But I couldn't take a chance on giving her a buzz, because she was only a little kid and she wouldn't have been up, let alone anywhere near the phone” (66-67). This shows how when Holden is not with others and is by himself, he wants to talk with others.

She also wants teenagers to talk to their family, or teachers about everything that is happening with them because they can help them. Don’t be mute. In conclusion, the author wanted the audience to know how bad pressure peer could be. Melinda had many obstacles in her after the peer pressure, but she ends it with

What did you do this week to help with your understanding of course material? During clinical this week I first went to Ware Shoals Primary School. There we continued to help with hearing screenings. This allowed us to learn how to communicate with small children as well and older children. Many of the younger children had a more difficult time understanding the process of the hearing screening and what was needed of them.

Practitioner research question: Can I improve communication skills, engagement and participation for pupils who have Autism by implementing the key principles of Attention Autism programme across the curriculum in a Key stage 1 classroom?

Friends don’t like it when other friends keep secrets from them. The argument that i support is that Cece is able to build relationships and her partial defense doesn’t interfere. They said that Cece couldn’t hear them, but i say that she could hear them just fine but she couldn’t understand them.

Sharon Olds writes about the details of the youth guest’s that attended her son’s birthday party in her poem “Rite of Passage”. The poem uses a significant amount of similes to describe the specific details of the kids and their interaction amongst each other while at the party. Olds does a great job of giving specific similes to describe the look of the children so you can truly picture the children. With the way that she describes the children and their interaction it feels that you are standing along with her observing the same thing she is. The way that Olds describe her son and the details that describe her son, gives the reader a great understanding of the love that she has for her son.
