CSN Education Department - Field Observation Activities Packet

Greetings Future Educator,

One of the most rewarding aspects of EDU 201, EDU 202 and EDU 203 is the opportunity you’ll have to
observe in a school classroom where students are actively engaged in learning. Each of these three CSN
courses require all students to complete a 10 hour "Field Observation" in a Clark County public school.

Once your placement is processed, you will receive details regarding your assigned school from your
CSN professor. Only then, will you contact the school and meet with your CCSD “cooperating teacher”.
Both you and your cooperating teacher will design a mutually agreeable schedule to complete your
required contact hours once you meet for the first time.

Within this packet, you will find the required field experience assignments and other documents that you
must complete in order to pass this class.

BEFORE ARRIVING ON THE FIRST DAY...

1. Locate your assigned school on a map, or via the CCSD website, and arrive during the Initial
Visitation Week dates provided to you by your CSN instructor. This initial visit will be your chance to
gather information about your assigned cooperating CCSD teacher. School locations and other
information can be found on the CCSD web site at http://ccsd.net/schools/contact-information/

2. Pre-plan for an on-time arrival, and make sure that all interaction with CCSD employees and students
is respectful, courteous, and professional. You are a guest in their school, and a representative of this
class and the college. CCSD is allowing you to visit their school to further your understanding of the
teaching profession. It is imperative that your actions reflect a willingness to learn, and are reflective of a
future professional educator.

3. The first half of your field observation/experience will be centered around learning about the school you
were assigned, and focusing on the general and unique characteristics of its culture. You will be looking at
and reflecting upon things that are going on in the classroom at the school level that you were assigned.
You are simply observing during this time. Your cooperating teacher will give you guidance on how your
experience can be expanded beyond simple observations, when he/she feels comfortable with your
professionalism and skills.

UPON ARRIVAL THE FIRST DAY…

Check in at the school office and let the Office Manager know that you are a CSN Education student who
has been placed with a cooperating teacher at their school for Field Observation. Be patient while the
information you’ll need is located by the Office Manager. The request for placement came through
Interact™ from our Field Observation Coordinator, and has been pre-approved by the school’s
administrator. During this initial visit, some of you may be sent directly to the classroom to meet your
cooperating teacher, some of you may be given contact information for the cooperating teacher, and then
will return on a different day for your first classroom visit.

UPON ARRIVAL TO THE CLASSROOM…

Introduce yourself to your assigned Cooperating Teacher. Since this is your first visit, ask the teacher
where he/she would like you to sit while you complete your observation hours for this CSN Introduction to
Education class. Show the teacher this “Field Observation Activities Packet”, as well as the last 3 pages
which contain the “Cooperating Teacher Information”, the “Time Log” and “Field Observation
Student Evaluation” pages. Let the teacher know that you will be taking notes during the observation
for your packet assignments, and that you will be asking him/her to verify your hours of attendance, and
evaluate your participation once the total observation hours are complete.

ASSIGNMENT 4 (Culture): Using the information provided below, carefully observe and evaluate the
culture of the school where you are assigned to observe. Remember you are evaluating the school for its
educational culture, place of learning, sense of safety, invitation for learning, promotion of self-
actualization, development of values and socialization.

Physical Characteristics: Look at the physical areas of the school to determine atmosphere, comfort,
and feelings the school creates for students in the educational setting.

1. Consider the school property: building, grounds, fencing, equipment, landscaping, trees,
parking lot, crosswalks, gates, signs and symbols.
lots of trees and spacious
2. Next, study the interior of the school: halls, floor coverings, lighting, doors, windows, hall
colors and decorations and entrance security.
colorful walls, lots of murals, and hardly no windows.

Culture of the School: Read, listen and observe to determine the climate, values, and atmosphere within
the school.

1. Identify the school’s mission statement, motto, and mascot.

2. Analyze staff and visitor interactions in the main office. Note student and faculty interactions in
other areas of the school.
main office staff was very welcoming, and was very accommodating to the parents.
3. Look at the formal practices: School bell schedule, and the grouping of students. (ie. grades,
block scheduling, periods) Does the school use inclusion, or a pull-out program for special
education students?
allowing students to use the microphone when using their chrome books. it allows them to do their assignments easier and to their level
4. Observe student-to-student interactions, inside and outside of the building. Observe where
students gather to socialize – lunchroom, halls, playground, etc.

ASSIGNMENT 5 (Cooperating Teacher Interview): Complete the questions below by interviewing your
cooperating teacher during a convenient time. Include any school documents that your cooperating
teacher will allow you to photocopy for your packet.

Interview Question 1: What was the primary reason you became a teacher?
I love working with children, I believe they are the next generation and I wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself.
Interview Question 2: What are the main challenges you face as a teacher?
The main challenges I face as a teacher are, students who are severely below grade level and families lacking parental support in academic success.

Interview Question 3: What is the best part of being a teacher?

The best part of teaching IS teaching :) and being able to interact with my students.
Interview Question 4: How do you determine where students sit in class?
The beginning of the year, I do it in alphabetical order to learn names. Once I get to know them, I move seats based on ability and personalities (who work best for
each other.)
Interview Question 5: How do you determine the members of any flexible groups?
Most of my small groups are based on academic level. It allows me to teach that group together on their level.
Interview Question 6: Beyond standardized testing, what assessments do you use regularly?
Each lesson has a “Check for understanding” or formative assessment. This allows me to see daily if they are understanding the skill.

Interview Question 7: What requirements are placed on you for reporting progress to parents?
We send home progress reports once a month. Parents also have access to the online digital progress report they can check at any time.

Interview Question 8: How often do you interact with a student’s parents in person, and what type of
discussions do you typically have?
We have conference days, and I keep constant communication with parents (good or bad) as needed. We discuss behavior, academics and even emotional help.

Interview Question 9: How much grading do you complete on a daily/weekly basis?

Grading is the hardest part of teaching for me. I grade weekly. Per CCSD we must have two grades per class per week.
Interview Question 10: How long does it take to prepare lessons for the day/week?
It varies how long it takes. I plan with a partner so we divide the responsibility. We plan during our preps so it takes a few hours over the course of the week

Interview Question 11: What procedures or strategies do you use to maximize instructional time?
Beginning of the year we teach the students rules and procedures to help maximize instructional time. There are a lot of expectations like, how to transition to one class to the next, cleaning up,
changing groups, independent work, morning routine, dismissal…etc
Interview Question 12: What positive reinforcement programs have you had success with, and what
behavioral consequences seem most effective with this age group?
We have a long list of positive incentives such as class parties, lunch with teachers, class gaming, show and tell.
For consequences we have progressive discipline, Warning, Loss of privilege, Buddy teacher, Parent contact, Office Visit

Interview Question 13: How are specialist teachers involved in the instructional planning process?
Special teachers try to incorporate what we are teaching in class, but they have their own curriculum for art, music, PE and library.

Interview Question 14: How often are you evaluated, and what measurement tool is used by the
administration for determining your teaching performance?
I am evaluated officially about three times a year. The principal comes often just to walk through and see what the students are working on.

Interview Question 15: What consequences are there if your evaluation is not favorable?
If the evaluation is not favorable, then administration will work with you on your improvements and then reevaluate at a later date.

Interview Question 16: What types of support do you receive instructionally, financially, or professionally
from the school, parent organization or school district to enhance instruction?
Unfortunately, there is not much support in this profession. I depend on my 5th-grade team a lot. Without them, I don't know how we would be as successful as we are. In our demographic parent
support is hard. We lack enough qualified teachers, the district does not help financially.
Interview Question 17: What surprised you most about teaching as a profession?
I knew this job would be impactful, but the amount of impact I have on so many lives could not be anticipated. I have changed so many lives and my students have changed my
life forever.

ASSIGNMENT 6 (Observing a student): Discretely observe one student in your assigned classroom
during an extended period of direct instruction. Detail what was going on in the environment, and what
you observed the student doing while the lesson was being given. Make sure to document ALL behavior
in relationship to what was being presented by the classroom teacher. Please describe the setting, the
lesson that was given, if the student was on task and engaged in the lesson, and what you uncovered
about putting yourself in a lesson from the student’s point of view.

I observed one student. He was new to the school as I was informed later on. He recently started attending this school. During direct instruction
____________________________________________________________________________________
he was often distracted. He would look around the classroom and tap on his desk. When the teacher asked questions to gain their attention
____________________________________________________________________________________
he was willing to answer even if it was wrong. He was not shy and had great communication with the teacher. The teacher knew his main
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
language is Spanish, so it was a big deal for him to be able to respond. He was often asking the teacher for help but would first go for his
table mates. He would ask questions to make sure he was completing the assignment correctly. They had to write a self narrative story for
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
this lesson. During instruction, as I said before, he was distracted but willing to answer and raise his hand when the teacher was trying to
gain their attention. Its as if he was still listening while playing and moving around. He was engaged in responding to questions but not

 ASSIGNMENT 7 (Summary): Thoroughly summarize and reflect upon your entire 10 hour Field
Observation Placement.
My field observation was great. I had the chance to interact with the students and have great experiences. I was able to bond and connect
____________________________________________________________________________________
with them. It was wonderful. I was able to see how student-teacher relationships were inside a classroom. My teacher was super supportive
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
of her students and gave them endless positivity. She greeted them with positive affirmations and always kept a smile. The students have a
lot of wonderful times with her as they shared with them. It was obvious that her students love and care for their teacher! They worked well in
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
the seating she assigned because she works with how her students interact. She is constantly attentive of each of her student. I noticed many
times the students were asking each other for help before coming to the teacher. They worked wonderful together. I was able to give the
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
students a spelling test. It was such a fun experience. I was also able to help out students if they had questions and the teachers hand were
full. I was able to guide them through their assignments and teach them along the way. It was an amazing experience and made me become
____________________________________________________________________________________
more positive about choosing this career path. I love my field observation.
____________________________________________________________________________________
I____________________________________________________________________________________
had a great connection with my teacher and her support staff/teachers. It was amazing to see how they created lesson plans and their plans for
their students. They came together and discussed how they can guide and teach specific students. It was also very interesting to see the
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
school environment and how other grades interact. It was very amazing to be able to observe and even be able to interact with students.
It was by far one of the best experiences I've had in this education field.

COOPERATING TEACHER INFORMATION - CSN FIELD OBSERVATIONS

Dear Cooperating Teacher,

Thank you for assisting in the preparation of a new generation of Nevada teachers. Our education majors
are required to complete 10 field observation hours in these courses:

EDU 201 Introduction To Elementary Education

EDU 202 Introduction To Secondary Education

This class is where many of our students actually make the decision whether they will continue further
study of the profession. We appreciate you joining us in providing these students with a wonderful first
experience in the classroom. If at all possible, please utilize the student to assist you in supervised
classroom instructional activities if you deem them ready.

We are hopeful that the information we have enclosed with this letter, which has been approved by the
Nevada College Consortium, will help you with a clear sense of how this field experience works.

When the student has completed his/her required observation hours, please complete and sign the
“FIELD OBSERVATION TIME LOG” and “FIELD OBSERVATION STUDENT EVALUATION” (along with
the student). Then, return these two pages to the student who will submit them to his/her professor. For
your convenience, the student has provided you with CSN contact information below. Please contact the
CSN instructor if there are any questions or concerns.

Also, before a final grade for EDU 201, EDU 202, or EDU 203 courses can be assigned, the CSN
professor MUST receive your official email verification that the student successfully completed his/her 10
