Field Experience

So far for the past two weeks, i have been participating in field observation project for my education class. The assignment is to observe a high school classroom for the next 40 hours. While i am observing the class, i have to write down some notes about the teacher qualifications, methods, techniques and motives on how to handle a class and to teach students that particular topic. As a history major also, i am happy to observe history classes the teacher is assigned to all year. The classes are US History I and II and Modern World Studies. The first day of observation was to write about the teacher's background, classroom setting, lesson objectives and behavioral management. The lessons were very interesting. One class was finishing the French Revolution and unto the Napoleonic Era. The other class began to learn the origins of WWI. I enjoy watching the class and help out with my teacher, it gives me ideas on how to be a good and caring teacher.
