I have learned a lot during these field observation hours. I have really enjoyed not only observing the children, but helping out and conversing with them. The most important thing that I have learned is that you need to have patience throughout the day. Especially in first grade, there is so many different things going on in just one day, that it is crucial to have patience with everything going on, and dealing with making sure each student is keeping on task.
I have noticed in Mrs. Wensel’s class that she is extremely good at being patient with each student. She kept telling me that is so important to be strict at the beginning of the school year, then the students know what is expected of them. She is so patient with each child, and I can tell they really love their teacher. I am excited and have definitely been persuaded to teach first grade after doing these observations.
