I observed Mrs. Ruffs 4th grade class at Carlin Park Elementary on Friday, September 15th at 9:30am. The class consisted of 13 girls and 12 boys. While I watched the class, I focused in on trying to notice the difference between the two sexes. I observed that the girls can compete at this age level with the boys. The girls were almost if not as athletic as all the guys in the class. During the activity where they were dribbling a soccer ball through homemade tunnels, the girls in the class were more technical with the task of dribbling the ball and followed directions better than the boys. The boys would run wild and try to go as fast as they could, but the directions were to take your time and focus on control which was what the teacher was grading them on. Some of the boys were very skilled and did the activity with great pace while focusing on control. Also, during the class, a little boy booted a girl’s ball across the gym because he was mad at himself for messing up. The teacher came to calm him down and he continued to do the activity. (Repeat from first Observation)
When I asked Mrs. Ruff her opinion about co-ed physical education and at what ages/grades would it be better to separate the two sexes, her response was passionate which made me feel good and glad I asked the question. Mrs. Ruff believes that co-ed classes are good for students and do more good for the kids than harm. She has not had a problem at the elementary level and feels that her students get more
Also, it’s been clear that the boys experience this abuse on a lesser extent, only their arms being grabbed, less frequently at that, and that being the farthest he will go with such conduct. The girls team, on the contrary, have to deal with much worse treatment. Additionally, the boys’ basketball instruction is more informative. It is evident that Epstein does not expect the girls team to do well, because he thinks that we, as girls, cannot do well. Contrastingly, with the boys, their practices are
Introduction: I observed at Kindercare Daycare located at 800 S. Arlington Heights Rd. Elk Grove Village, IL 60007. I was observing the Preschool and kindergarten classroom. The children’s ages ranged from three to five years old. There was at the most twenty children in the room that I observed in, and one staff member per classroom.
During the observation portion of this assignment, I observed in a fifth grade ELL classroom. The teacher in charge of this class is Anissa Rose. She has been an ELL teacher for many years and teaches students in kindergarten through the 8th grade. This paper will discuss whether or not the students were aware of the class language and content objective, how the teacher instructed the content and language objectives, the type of group configurations, and how the teacher accommodated for different ELP levels.
I have been doing my student observation at Scobee Middle School with Coach David Ellis. He currently teaches 8th grade U.S. History. Coach Ellis has different approach for each child in his different classes. These approach help him keep the class in order and help keep the students on track.
Others say that the idea of segregating boys and girls is part of the problem and that the best way to solve the problem is to stop looking at boys and girls as being so different and to look at them as individuals rather than as two groups. The view is represented
Unselds’ School Classroom Observation Report Background of the Unselds’ School The Unselds’ School is a private school, located in Baltimore, Maryland. The school teaches less than one hundred students from the ages of nine months to teenagers in the eighth grade with a faculty of fourteen. The goal of the school is to provide their students with the necessary skills needed to be accepted and potentially awarded scholarships to high schools that are beneficial in furthering the child’s education, as the public high school of the county has a graduation acceptance rate of forty-eight percent. The Unselds’ School has a thematic teaching approach, which means that the curriculum implemented is based around key subjects and concepts.
During the past two years, I was given the opportunity to spend some time observing in the classrooms at the First Presbyterian Church of Bakerstown Preschool, a Christian-based school, in the Gibsonia, PA area, the Westminster College Preschool Lab, and the Head Start program at New Castle, PA. Observing in the different classrooms displayed different ways to setup and design one classroom from another. The church preschool was different from the Head Start program, mostly due by the budget and location of each facility. Many of the church preschool classroom materials were provided by donations to the preschool. The classrooms at all three locations, had some physical similarities with each other including: many windows, child-sized tables, chairs, cubbies, and play kitchens that were child friendly, with different areas for children to play in during free time.
In addition, girls should have an equal opportunity to participate in sports. Ethical issues discussed in this book include: cultural emphasis on winning, discrimination against genders and kids with disabilities, and the high dropout rate of sport. These issues have been discussed on different levels throughout our class and I believe that our main focus should be on parenting. Once we control the actions of the parents, along with the win-at-all-costs mentality, the other things will begin to dial down and more opportunities will fall in place for those who are discriminated against. The actions of the parents will have a positive effect on their children, their coaches, and will lead to an overall centrally focused youth sports
I realized the goals the girls and I had were conflicting. I wanted them to advance their skills, while they were more interested in being social than trying to do their best athletically. These players chose not the follow through with the drills and adjustments that I had given them to enhance their
Participants in this study consisted of 14 undergraduate students from a research methods psychology laboratory held on Wednesdays from 1:30pm to 3:30pm during the spring 2018 semester at Simon Fraser University. There were __ males and __ females ranging from the ages of __ to __ years, with a mean age of __. The participants were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group. The experimental group was given the yellow paper condition, different from the control group who were given the white paper condition. __ males and __ females took part in the yellow paper condition with a total of __ participants.
The first observation was conducted on August 30th at 9:00 a.m., while the student was participating in the special education resource room. The observation took place for a total of 25 minutes. For the duration of the observation the student was seated at a small table working one-on-one with the special education teacher. Along with the student being observed and the special education teacher, two other students, as well as, two paraprofessionals were in the special education resource room during the observation time. One student and paraprofessional were working one-on-one at a small table, while the other student was sitting in a bean bag chair reading a book.
OVERVIEW The elementary school that I observed at, Orchard View Elementary, was located in Delray Beach, FL. The location was very accessible and right off of the highway. The teacher I got assigned to was Ms. Diann Johnson. She teaches a class for students in 3rd-5th grade.
Classroom Observations Mrs. Canada is the first grade teacher that I observed, and the subject that she was teaching was reading. She had planned well-organized power points and crafting materials in advance, so she was prepared for the lesson. The two times I observed, the lesson that was being taught at both times was reading. Children in the classroom used a lot of previous knowledge for the lesson.
C. Analysis In this chapter, I will make critical analysis on the results of the classroom observation with my opinion. 1. Teacher’s Classroom Management a. Managing students to pay attention to the lesson According to Warfield (2016) mentioned that classroom surrounding very affects to student performance.
Co-ed schools versus single-sex schools: which will provide a better learning experience for students? The debate over whether or not the genders should be separated in the classroom still stands today. In a society where both men and women have to work together harmoniously, a co-ed education initially seems to be the more viable option since it prepares students for real-world experiences. Although every student has different learning styles, a student would, however, ultimately benefit from the tailored curriculum and comfort of a single-sex educational environment. Students will have a more relaxed learning experience without distractions from the opposite gender.
