Elementary schools‚ especially kindergarten classrooms‚ are the prime examples to find children in a setting where they interact without outside stimulus. The subculture being observed is a kindergarten class whose predominant identities as children‚ siblings‚ and members of society all intertwine. Kindergarteners interact with one another without any of the prejudices of adulthood; the behavior observed is influenced by intermingled peer relationships and a teacher´s positive guidance.

For my classroom observation‚ I chose to observe two classrooms with teachers I do not work with at my current job Bobbie Smith Elementary in Long Beach‚ CA. My area of interest is elementary‚ I chose to observe a Kindergarten and Second grade classroom.

The observation of teaching at a local primary school provided me with an opportunity to watch how teachers interact with their students. I could see that teaching methods are becoming more diverse nowadays and multimedia is integrated into classrooms.

The field observation program is an effective program that really helps those students desiring to become a teacher. It is the best way to receive a classroom experience from a different perspective‚ because of course we have all been through school from a student perspective.

Currently‚ we are gaining a sort of assistant perspective which will help us with the teacher perspective. This is an efficient
