3. Provide details on two separate interactions where teachers supported a child’s literacy development. Select two different children or groups of children for this observation.
a. The children came walking over to the carpet to sit down for story time. “Miranda.” I said “It is time to join our friends on the carpet for story time.” Miranda walked over to the play kitchen and sat down in a leather chair apart from the rest of the group. I walked over to the circle time carpet and sat down on the tile floor outside of the carpet. Ms. Alyssa said “Miranda we are reading a story now so, you need to come and sit with the rest of us.” Miranda stood up and walked to the middle of the classroom but, stopped there and stared at Ms. Alyssa. Ryker was walking around the classroom. Ms. Justine said “Ryker, it is time to sit down and listen.” Ryker looked at Ms. Justine and said

Justine said “Ryker, you need to listen and sit down with everyone else.” Ryker threw a salt and pepper shaker at Ms. Justine and ran around the classroom screaming. Ms. Alyssa started to read a book about insects. Ryker ran around the classroom and screamed at Ms. Justine running from her and climbing up on top of the heater. Ms. Alyssa spoke to the children and said “Friends, do you see how Ryker is behaving. What he is doing is not appropriate and we should not act like that.” Robert Thomas climbed up into my lap but, looked at Ryker. I leaned down and said “Our eyes should be on the teacher Robert Thomas.” Ryker screamed again. Manaf, Robert Thomas, Jett, and Lucas turned and looked at Ryker. Ms. Alyssa said “My friends how about I stop reading this book and read one you all know by heart called The Pigeon Needs A Bath!” Lucas, Lucy B., Lucy F. Manaf, Robert Thomas, and Jett said “Yes!” Ms. Alyssa opened the book to the first page and
I walked into the classroom and started setting down chairs and wiping down tables. Ms. Justine was getting excited pulling out the children’s shirt that they had tie died the day before. Ms. Alyssa liked the shirts. Lucy F. came in first and Ms. Justine said “Lucy F. what do you think should I give you your shirts now or later today?” Lucy F. said “I think you should give them now.” Ms. Justine gave Lucy F. and Lucy F.’s mother their shirts as they held them up and looked at them. Lucy F. said “It’s so pretty.” Chase came in and asked to see his shirt and then Manaf, Lucy B., and Assel all came in and asked to see their shirts. Mr. Scott went out and got the rest of the class including Lucas, Jason, Ryker, and Jacob. I asked Lucas what he had
Within my school teaching literacy takes place in everyday classroom. The format of this teaching varies to include different activities for each day. Certain aspects of literacy are taught every week. The teachers are to ensure that the work planned is appropriate for the age stage and ability of the children. They use strategies such as talk partners and small group work to allow children to develop their oral skills and ability to communicate and cooperate with their peers. Emphasis is placed on the acquisition of effective oracy skills in the early years and foundation phase. Role play areas are set up in partnership with the children so that they can practice speaking Listening and drama based activities within a meanful context.
Stacy don’t open the door." Timmy whispered in a frightened voice. "I won't sweetheart I wont." As I pushed my back against the wall broken glass had splattered above my head and all over me. As soon as I felt the strange man grabbing my hair I stood up, away from the dangerous guy. "What do you want? Don’t hurt these innocent children!" As I yelled in a tone that I had never yelled in before, the threatening man opened the door. As soon as I noticed he had opened the door I stood in front of the children's desk with my hands held apart one to the left, as one to the right. "Please stop!" I yelled in a frightened voice. "Move out the way lady!" As the perilous man pushed me to the side he picked up the desk. Sarah still curled up in a ball. I noticed him picking her up. "Mrs. Stacy please don’t let him take me! Stop I don’t like you dad!" I was in shocked to hear Sarah's words coming out of her mouth. "Don’t come near me lady!" As Sarah's dad was about to leave the room I threw a chair at her dad's back. "Put her down I said!" As I shouted to him, he had left me unconscious there sitting on the
The first challenge was to understand what the essay topic is going to be about. When I began to write the literacy narrative, I thought about my first book that I read. However, I didn’t know if I could expand the story and add some vivid details. I decided to switch my topic and write about the TOEFL test preparation, since that had happened couple years ago and it was still fresh in my memory.
The students work on assigned classwork on the IPad. Bobby begins singing. Ms. Fizzle approaches Bobby to help him with the assignment. Ms. Frizzle walks away. Bobby stands up, and the teacher aide approaches and asks Bobby to have a seat he sits down and starts mumbling under his breath. Bobby begins staring around the classroom. Bobby looks at the IPad (class assignment) puts it away and walks to the back of the classroom and stands behind one of his classmate seats mumbling and singing to himself. Teacher Aide addresses Bobby behavior and asks him to return to the front of the class. His classmates begin snickering.
In general, the first time that I utilized this kind of literacy practice in the aspect how I see it now was in the United States. Even though I have studied in my home country the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia but it was not like the way looked the education now. It is very different because of the community in both sides. Her in the United States the quality of education much higher.
Shawn Torrent was sitting in his math class at Palm beach k-12 school, he looked up from his work to see that his teacher, Mrs. Clarke, was no longer writing a problem on the board, or even in the classroom. Shawn looked around the room, as a few other students started to realize that she wasn’t there. Some of the kids from Shawn’s class, including his best friend Cody Mitchell, stood up and walked to the hallway. Shawn followed everyone into the hallway, where he noticed kids from other classes had done the same. He had asked multiple people what was going on, but got no response from anyone. Then Shawn looked down the hallway and saw Alana Morrison come out of her advanced algebra class. He had always liked Alana, but they had never really
While observing in Mrs. Lewis’ Kindergarten classroom I noticed that there are several diversities that exist amongst her students. I am aware that two students in the room have IEPs and are accommodated for as needed, specifically in the time they are given to complete activities and the scale in which they are graded in comparison to their peers. Also, there several children that are a different ethnicity than Mrs. Lewis herself, but are always treated in an unbiased manner by Mrs. Lewis as well as her aid, Ms. Pam. In addition, I am aware that there are no ELL students within the classroom, but due to the presence of Latino children Mrs. Lewis has laminated posted taped to objects in the class that have the Spanish term
Upon entering the classroom, Deyonnah was sitting at the table eating popcorn. She had a doll and a pair of stethoscopes on the table next to her popcorn. Deyonnah got up, ran to the toy bin and brought a camera to the table. She sat back down in her seat and continued to eat her popcorn. Ms. Piedad walked over to Deyonnah and pushed her chair closer to the table. One of the students shouted, “I’m going to blocks!” Another student repeated, “I’m going to blocks too.” Both students got up and ran to the block center. Deyonnah jumped out of her chair and ran to the cabinet and grabbed the whisper phone. Ms. Piedad removed the whisper phone and redirected Deyonnah back to the table to finish eating her popcorn. Deyonnah began to cry and scream.
“Time for school Rosy.” said Riley as she went to Rosy’s room to wake her up. After Rosy got dressed, Riley drove her to school at East High School. As she takes a seat in Mrs. Rogers’ math class, the bell rings. Mrs. Rogers is about to close the door till Adam Matthews, the most popular guy and one of the best athletes in school, sprints in. Mrs. Rogers said “You are late once again Adam. You are failing my class, so I have no option, but to assign you a tutor to help with your studies starting
I heard all the groups talking at once all the counselors telling girls what to do. “ Anya come on’’ Evelyn told me in a little bit of a harsh way “what ?” I asked “were getting life jackets” explained Evelyn. Me and Evelyn were doing the tippy test with the canoes. We were at camp newaygo, were us and two of are other friend were doing a week long sleep away camp and one of the thing that me and Evelyn did was going canoeing and today was our last day, and we were doing the tippy test were you practice what would happen when you fall in the water. “Anya” said Evelyn now sounding mad. “Oh ya sorry I was spacing out” I explained as I tried to hide my embarrassment.
We told Jason that he had better not have gotten cheez its ruined for us! the next day we had went to the cafeteria. we saw a sign that said “NO MORE CHEEZ IT'S!” and there was a trash can where you had to put your in the can. If you didn’t put them in there and the teachers found them they had put you in lunch duty. When Jason had went to the table he said guess what i snuck in! He started to show us but Mr. L had found him and he started to take jas to the wall when he started to take him to the wall the principle
The second interaction I observed was a child went over and grabbed the ring stacker toy. She started to shake the pieces which contained beads that made noise. The teacher walked over and allowed the child to really explore all the pieces of the toy before she intervened. She was laughing along with the child when she got excited that the beads were moving. I would give this interaction a seven on the QQCIIT scale for supporting object exploration. This is because the teacher allowed the child to explore multiple toys and pick one to really explore. She helped her maintain interest in the toy and she helped her explore the object by also shaking a bigger, different colored ring. Once the child noticed the middle piece that the other rings
Then one day in the science elective we were doing an experiment. Everyone doing the experiment were on one side of the tale and then on the other side there was August. I personally didn’t mind August and if he touched me I wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. However, Ms.Rubin noticed we were all squished to one side and she sent two of us over to the other side, Tristan and Nino. During the experiment August accidently touched Tristan. Tristan freaked out because of the game and went over to immediately wash her hands. While she did this August looked sad, mortified like he had done something wrong. At that moment August looked like he had a million ideas swirling around his head his eyes got watery but he never cried. August had found out about the game.
Laurel and Sara decided to get up and watch TV for a little while. They ended up watching it for an hour then they went to bed. Tyler had decided to also watch TV and went to bed after an hour or so. By 6:30, Laurel, Sara, and Tyler were up and getting dressed to get ready for the big day. They knew right when they would get home they would have to finish packing before they go, and they had a feeling that today, would be a very, very slow school-day. It was 8:26 and they were in their first-period class, which was Algebra. For most of the class, they were tired and completely unfocused. “Laurel! Sara! Tyler! Stop talking and listen to the lesson!” Mr. Bunn exclaimed. “Sorry, Mr. Bunn….” They said in unison. The trio finished listening to Mr. Bunn going on and on math and what they need to know for the test and split into groups of four to work on the two-page review given by Mr. Bunn. Luckily, in their group they had another friend named Eliza, who also knew of the book, was filled in on what they planned. “Ok, so to sum it up, we are leaving after school to meet at my house so we can use the book to start this adventure. But while we are gone, we will need someone to cover for us while we aren’t here. Could you cover for us?” Tyler asked. “Sure!” Eliza exclaimed. “I’d love to help. All I ask in return is that you tell me what happens while you are there.” “Ok.” Tyler said. “We will make sure we do.” Mr. Bunn walked over and said: “Tyler! Work with your group and stay on topic!” Mr. Bunn said sternly. “Yes, Mr. Bunn.” Tyler said. After five minutes, the bell had ringed and passing period to the second period started. “Bye Mr. Bunn! See you Monday!” They exclaimed. They were on their way to Biology when they were stopped and questioned by Brynn, the stuck-up, popular girl. “So, I heard that rumor. Sara, is it true?” She said in a
