Preschool Observation
Working with and observing the preschool children is never dull; Especially interacting with 3 year old E. She is extremely energetic and she enjoyed playing with me. I grabbed a basketball and asked her to kick it and she did exactly that which is why she received a "yes" on the ASQ-3. She later jumped up and down when she continuously asked me to catch her (which was not permitted by the teacher) which is the reason she received a "yes". The reason I marked "sometimes" for walking up stairs is because I have only seen stair of some sort on the playground when the children were outside. At the end of the day when the children's parents were picking them up E and I started to play catch with the basketball; I threw underhanded and she threw

    I observed a child throwing a fit at the mall the other day. This child did not want to leave the store and did not want to get into her stroller. She started to throw her head back and scream very loudly. Then she would throw her arms around and kick, in an attempt to not be strapped in. The mother started to yell at her daughter to stop while trying to strap her in. After a few minutes of the child kicking and screaming she was able to strap her in. But the child continued to scream, this was when the mother decided to leave the mall. My recommendation is that instead of trying to force the child into the stroller the parent could have held the child. Trying her best to calm her down, since the child was throwing around her body while the…

    During my interaction with Twin 1, mom was present for modeling purposes. One of the things I enjoy about the ASQ is that we have the opportunity to model for families the importance of various interactions while playing with children. Showing that play really does give us the insight to development. Before entering the room to conduct our observation, the mother and I went through the assessment so we were able to conduct more of an authentic assessment together. We also went through the questions and explored if there were any concerns. Mom did mention that biting is something that the teachers are telling her is happening a lot in the classroom, but she feels as though since Twin1 has gained more language since coming into the older classroom – he has been in this classroom for 2 months now and the family maintains a 92% attendance rate.…

He is interested in the reaction of his teacher as he hands her his blocks, one by one. Tommy leans forward, grabs a block and hands it to his teacher. He watches her face and sort of drops his mouth open as he waits for her reaction. She then tells him the letter and color on the block. He nods his head forward and then reaches for another block and proceeds to pick up another block. After picking up 5 blocks and handing them to his teacher he then crawls across the floor to a toy car and pushes it for a moment. He looks up at his teacher to see what she is doing and pushes the car toward her. He smiles at her and she smiles back and says “Is that your car?” he smiles again and nods his head forward.

Ms. Carrilo said that she wanted one of the UTSA students to stay with her and the other UTSA student to go with the teacher assistant. I went with the teacher assistant to the work area and my UTSA partner, Alexis, stayed with Ms. Carrilo in the carpet/block area.…

    On November 6th, I observed a four year-old boy at the UCI Early Childhood Education Center. My observation starts at 4:10pm, and it lasts for thirty minutes. At the time I did the observation, all of the children woke up from the nap time and started to play outside of the classroom.
