For my observation this semester I am working with Riley , a student at a local Early Childhood Center . She is a 3 and one month old girl who lives in the suburbs of Philadelphia and goes to a child care center in an area outside Philadelphia. She has been attending the early childhood center since she was a few months old and has a sibling who attends, too. At her school now she is in the late 2 year old or toddlers classroom for which she is the one of the oldest in her classroom, but will stay there until January. From what I got from her in my conversations, she lives with her mother, father and older sister and is taken to school daily by her grandma or “Nanna” with her sister. Her father works for a pharmaceutical plant and her mother
