I am definitely going to do that. I am also going to record my observations so I can stay focused on one category and then go back and watch the video to see what I missed in that category and maybe get more insight. I also like the "Why Observe" frame. It is really important to think about using observation again in the future.

I also think that we notice it a lot more than we notice other things. If you don't have good classroom management it is easily noticeable as soon as you walk into the classroom.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02944171379113798408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8270478489038812250.post-16970541567886639792015-10-18T19:08:23.218-07:002015-10-18T19:08:23.218-07:00Nicely organized info-graphic.

It seems that much of what we do as teachers - not just observations - is focused on classroom management. I know that I reflect on it pretty much every day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215124497077233087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8270478489038812250.post-87450233756094206822015-10-17T14:38:51.950-07:002015-10-17T14:38:51.950-07:00I like your infographic and the pictures you used,...I like your infographic and the pictures you used, more fun to look at :) I like the template, I'm using one in my class and it's still a little difficult for me to keep track, but I'm sure much easier than if I didn't have one. It's interesting that observation is often used to improve classroom management, my classroom management seems to be dwindling just a little because I have to get my check marks down on different categories. Maybe if my students knew I was observing and recording information it would be different, but I want them to act normal and I'm afraid if they knew I was recording information they might not behave normally. But on the other hand, maybe it helps us to really see who the kids are that are talking and what not and be able to move them away from others, because I have seen a difference in how much I actually notice that I haven't before.Tristannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8270478489038812250.post-36387677546396930922015-10-16T21:36:11.471-07:002015-10-16T21:36:11.471-07:00Sara,

I like the idea of using a template to narrow down what you are recording. I tried observing my classes yesterday while we were using clickers and I found that I was trying to focus on too many things at once. Maybe I will try using a template to make my observations more focused. Sarah Knoreply@blogger.com
