Health Lesson and Observation

Mrs. Tuttle is currently incorporating Health into the curriculum. The second half of the year is when the children learn their Health lessons. More often than not, it takes the place of Science. This is just the beginning of basic Health, nothing too intensive.

The lesson I am going to teach, was my own idea. It will incorporate Health and

Physical Education Activity, and will take place in the gym. When I told Mrs. Tuttle

about it, she thought it was absolutely the cutest idea. The lesson I am going to use is a relay race game called “Dem Bones”. The students will be in teams of about 5 children. They will all be at one end of the gym. At the other end of the gym, there will be a pile of laminated bones. The children will have to run down one at a time, and retrieve the bone that is written on a card that they will draw from a hat. They will bring that bone back, and begin to create a skeleton on the wall with masking tape. The first group to have a completed skeleton, will win!

I will provide my own made up lesson plan for this lesson. No materials will be

needed from the teacher. I will have my own already prepared. I attended Chestnut when I was in grade school, so I already knew what I was going to see when I got there. The classrooms are all still set up the same way they were when I left 10 years ago. They are all very clean. The desks are spaced well, to avoid tripping, and too much talking. Physically the school is the best one in my town.

This school is also very emotionally excellent. The teachers are very warm and

friendly. There are lots of colors, posters, pictures and signs on the walls, to emphasize the warmth and friendliness. The children, mostly, are very polite. The only thing that surprised me was the amount of helpfulness. They were willing to do anything for Mrs. Tuttle. I think it was because her style of teaching was so effective. She never raised her voice, she simply stopped talking. They all got quiet, and she started again.

  • Preschool Classroom Observation

    Overall my time in this preschool classroom met all of my expectations based on best practices. I feel that on a typical day when it is the primary teacher or teachers, the room meets the expectations of best practice, NAEYC, ECERS and state standards. Once meeting the teacher, you are able to tell that she is up to date on her research and theories about children and early childhood education. The teacher truly cares about the children, their education and their future.

    Nike actually was able to complete 3 out of the 5 stages for corporate responsibility, which were Defensive, Compliance and Managerial. They are still taking steps to achieve corporate responsibility strategies that will enhance their enforcement policies for the future. The main reason Nike failed to address corporate social responsibility early on is because they didn’t come up with a solution that would benefit globally. They were so concerned with their reputation locally but worldwide they weren’t known as the best company. Another huge flaw Nike showed was to blame the Third World Countries for their labor laws and minimum pay

  • Utopian School

    There wouldn’t actually have to be any specific groupings within the class, because every class would only consist of children that are all at the same level, so there would be no seperation, and the kids would not feel bad about being slower, and being separated from the “smart kids.” I would do my very best to make absolutely sure that the entire facility would be one-hundred percent clean, I think that a clean school would make it easier for students to learn, instead of trying to learn in filth. I would try to raise money with events and fundraisers to keep the school clean and a positive learning environment. As far as materials and equipment go, I would use the best materials and the highest grade equipment so that my students could use them to get the best education possible. I believe that all of these attributes would make the perfect school, every single student would be able to get a proper amount of attention and they would be able to use modern technology and have people that actually care about the students and their education, and what they are going to do with their future.

  • Reflection On What Went Well

    712 Words  | 2 Pages

    After doing the lesson, I felt that many things went well. According to the class evaluations and observation, the class really enjoyed the 4 different explore sound stations. The stations allowed for self-discovery, but were also structured enough for the teacher to have control. Classmates also liked the pictures that went along with the vocabulary terms. I think we did well with monitoring the students. We made sure the students were ready to continue to the next thing by having them give us “a thumbs up/ thumps down”. Lastly, I thought we did a great job at starting the lesson off strong with an engaging activity with the various sounds played from a cellphone app. It caught their attention and got them curious as to what

  • Essay On Urban Sprawl

    1102 Words  | 3 Pages

    The term "urban sprawl" seems to have several different meanings depending on the context, but it is very loosely defined as the movement of a human population from high-density communities towards lower-density communities. While this phenomenon is often cited as a manifestation of modern life, and occasionally an exclusively American problem, it actually has been a part of city life around the globe for longer than one would expect. In Robert Bruegmann's book, Sprawl: A Compact History, he notes that the wealthier residents of a city have always had a tendency to migrate towards the low-density outskirts of urban areas. For example, members of the Chinese nobility and upper-class during the Ming Dynasty would speak fondly of the benefits of living away from the cities. The idea of suburban areas goes back even farther, extending as far back as ancient Rome, where rulers and the wealthy lived in highly fashionable "villa suburbanas." This kind of evidence alone strongly suggests that urban sprawl is neither a recent phenomenon nor simply a product of American culture. Despite modern efforts to combat urban sprawl, its historical prevalence suggests that it may be unavoidable and may be a manifestation of the tendencies of human nature. However, the modern iteration of urban sprawl and its subsequent problems appear to be strongly correlated with the use of gasoline-powered personal automobiles. Three of these problems are increased air pollution, increased health problems, and increased incidence of severe injuries and fatalities.

    The school that I visited was new. It was the first year of the school opening. The school board had combined two schools into one, so the students had to adjust to their new environments and new individuals. They seemed to be getting along well with each other. Since the school is new the teacher has to adjust to new problems that araise. Times for the subjects and times for using the computer labs change. So the teacher must always be fixable for anything. In this observation of this classroom I learned about the enjoyment of teaching. How you have to adapt to each of the students.

    The students that I observed in the classroom were of middle to high school. I went to see 8th, freshman, 10th , and seniors classes, they seemed excited and very curious to why I was there. The middle school was more alive and rambunctious while I observed them. The High school kids were more relaxed, more comical. Some were paying attention while others seemed tuned out to the lecture or involved in socialization with friends within the class. By the end of the class Mr. Hasgil had restored the attention of everyone by using tactics such as history jeopardy with candy as the prize with the high school kids. In both he middle school and high school the kids were mostly Caucasian with a mixture of black, Asian , and Hispanic in the classes.
