1. Record the number of males, females, and ratio of ethnicity within the
classroom. In Ms. Hursts fourth grade classroom at Smoky Mountain Elementary
is where I did my service learning. She only had fourteen students total in her
classroom. She had nine females and 8 males. All were of Caucasian ethnicity and
there was one male who was Hispanic.
2. What are the development levels of the students within the classroom
you
are observing? The fourth grade class was split up into two separate classrooms,
but they never swapped rooms or teachers so I only got to observe one of the fourth
grade classrooms. Ms. Hurst had the lower level students. I dont like using the term
lower level, because in my opinion, those were some of the best kids you could
ask for. I did see a few students who needed help all the time. Her seating
arrangement paired her higher students with her lower students and they seemed
to really help each other out. I will definitely use this seating arrangement in the
future.
