Throughout my time at Suffolk Community College, I have done a lot of observations and many hours of student teaching between the ages 4-7 years old. So, walking into an infant classroom for an observation was a first-time thing for me. The infant room was full of a lot of wooden furniture (example: cabinets, changing table, cribs, shelves etc.) and the walls are painted an eggshell white. The instant I walked into the entrance of the room near the door, right hand side there was a kitchen, with a sink, baby formula, utensils, baby bottles and sippy cups.

During this developmental interview, I chose to conduct an observation/interview study with my one of my cousin’s child. This child is a 4 year old girl and will be identified as “child K” in relation to her first name. Her parents had no problem letting me interview her, but I had them stay in the same room as us. The purpose of this interview was to observe the child’s physical, cognitive, and socioemotional development. I observed her behavior and gave her several tests to show how well she has progressed.
For the color of the babies room I’d go with one soild color all around the room. I would do light colors such as a light purple, light blue, light gray, or a tan color. I wouldn’t have any bright colors because babys need to be able to sleep at any time of day and bright colors would be a distraction. I would have also have minimal bright colors in the room only because when the child is sleeping in the crib I don’t want them to be destracted while trying to sleep. As for toys I would have different shapes and size toys, soft and hard, fuzzy and squshy just to stimulat the babies thinking.
On Monday February 29, Doris arrived at my center and informed me that she's here for an inspection. During the inspection, she informed me that my Preschool room is out of ratio and that I have two infants under 17 months there. I would like for her to specify who those infants are because of the two youngest children that I moved to the toddler room, neither was under 17 months. I processed several applications for employment the week of February 22 and submitted background checks on the following applicants: Amber Jones, Nancy Estrada, Margie Lovaton, and Farzana Zehra. I hired Amber, Nancy and Margie pending background results and kept Farzana on standby in case she was needed.
Over the past few months, the class has been discussing typical and atypical language development and the assessment and intervention of children with language delay or disorder. In line with this, the students were asked to observe children aged 0-12 years old with language problems for 2 hours.

The center has multiple rooms that are used for speech therapy and occupational therapy. During my observation, two speech pathologists and two children with language disorder were sharing one speech therapy room.
Toddler Learning and Development Introduction Unlike adolescents and adults, growth and development is different in infants and toddlers. Observations from the physical, cognitive and perceptual development show that toddlers and infants grow and develop at a faster rate than adults. The physical, cognitive and motor development in infants and toddlers is higher than the same development in adults. This paper is an analysis and interpretation of an observation conducted with an aim to understand the growth and development of toddlers and infants. It explains an observation of an infant boy named Taylor who is 8 months old.

According to developmental psychology a person at any age is at a certain stage of cognitive, moral, psychosocial, and physical development. This development is measured by different types of thinking, mental capacity for tasks, physical strength, and reasoning for following rules. Development is easily seen in children. Naturalistic observation is the one of the easiest method to see these developments in children. This is the observation technique I used, while watching a five year old male at Kindercare Daycare at 3:30 on a Friday.

The classroom that I will be observing is a Preschool classroom at KinderCare Learning Center in Bartlett, Illinois. The teacher I will be observing over the next period of time is Laura Sturgulewski. She has worked at KinderCare for 8 years, mostly in the 2 year-old room until fall of 2013, when she took the lead teaching position of the Preschool classroom. Her classroom mainly has 3 year-olds, but on occasion has a mix of 4 year-olds and transitioning 2 year-olds. The number of students in her class depends on the day, because they are a child care center some students have a part time schedule, unlike an elementary school where children attend every day.
