a. The classroom presented a diverse classroom because the teacher had a lot of
pictures of the children with their family. There was a family tree in the
classroom. Next to each child's name there was a picture of their families. Other
than the pictures the labeling in the classroom as well was diverse. Lables were

a. There were two children playing in the dress up center. Both of them enjoying the
play laughing and talking to each other. There another child in the kitchen center
that was playing on her own. She kept turning back focusing on the interaction
between the other two children. She stopped for a second and after finishing what
she was cooking she walked right over to the other two children. She began
conversation with the others. They all played together at the end of their free play.
Both sides still enjoying the kitchen area and the dress up area.

able to look at each other from across the room. The centers were also set up in a

and sand/water area. Those areas need a bigger area for children to play. The art
area is in a room where carpet is present which can cause a lot of stains. Also
because the water are does not have any matt or any protection from slippery floor
or spills. The block area needs a bigger space children aren't able to play or build
because it has a small space. There was also good things i observe the way the
classroom is set up to height level of the children. How the teacher provided
appropriate centers and a lined the centers that needed to be together. The
maintenance in the classroom is neat and organized. Pets are also kept in a safety
place for children to be able to see them but not mess with them.
c. The only improvements I would see this classroom would need is the space. A
