My Observation In LA Valley College
My observation took place in LA Valley College , October 4,2016 at 10:00 am. My experience was amazing, the first thing that crossed my mind is that I wanted to work in the field as soon as possible, I felt wonderful watching a lot of kids playing around, doing their own thing, playing by themselves or together. It was hard to pick only one child to observe.
My observation took place in the playground, I chose a little girl, and she was smiling, playing with a spoon and a pot pretending to be cooking a soup.
She walked to the sand box to get sand and water from the sink. She played with another girl in the sandbox for a couple of minutes.
She is in between the stages of parallel play and cooperative, she was sharing a little shovel.
She walk

    College is the next stepping stone to better or advance ones social standing in life, whether it is moving from a blue collar lifestyle to white collar, or to continue to further their career path. However, it comes with an “unavoidable result.” Alfred Lubrano discusses this “unavoidable result” in his text “The Shock of Education: How College Corrupts.” Lubrano discusses the topic of how furthering ones education opens more possibilities but at the same time distances those held most dearly. He explains that the more knowledge gained, the bigger the gap caused between friends and family due to differences in levels of knowledge. That distance is greatly increase if one comes from a poorer region where blue collar workers are the social norm. For instance, conversations within lower class households come off more militaristic due to the fact that all opinions are “dictated by group consensus,” where what the class says is so. Juxtaposed to the middle class household where they are talked to as adults.. Lubrano does not try to dissuade one from attending college, he simply shines a light onto a hidden matter that is not discussed when continuing ones education. Lubrano hits the nail on the head about the distance gained when continuing ones education with friends and family, but does not consider the fact about that distance being magnified as a first generation American.…

    I actively get involved in playing various educational games with children and encourage them to learn through play or when doing art and craft activities (I also display children’s work for them and their parents to see). I listen to children’s responses when I read to them and tell them stories (to some children I translate and interpret). When doing the above I observe children’s performance and report on observations to the practitioner, and I do this at various times.…

    Sky Barragan, daughter of a good friend of mine is the child I observed for this written evaluation. Sky is four years old with a birthday quickly approaching this upcoming July. The observation took place at a local park in Pasadena that Sky frequents quite regularly for play time. We arrived at the park at approximately nine fifty in the morning and left the park at ten thirty. The park is about five acres and located in a quiet neighborhood of Pasadena, CA. It has a playground, basketball courts, handball courts, and plenty of open grass and trees which make for a calm and peaceful setting. The park was fairly empty with a few adults engaging in morning fitness activities, and the playground was empty. The temperature outside was about ninety…

    During the months of September and October this semester I spent time at two different schools in four different classrooms. Being able to observe different classes and teachers at Westside Junior High and South Live Oak Elementary was a very new and exciting experience for me since I can’t say I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. My experiences at these schools gave me a better insight into the differences between schools, classrooms, and teachers. The purpose of this field experience was to get 10 observation or tutoring hours in an elementary or junior high setting. I chose to observe a few different classrooms instead of tutoring students.…
