Week 4 Assignment 4

Candidates will observe one art experience and one music experience in a designated community site, preschool or art/music or dance class for mobile infants or toddlers. Assignment will include all observation prompts. At least one experience needs to be a Parent-Child Class (i.e., Music Together class). Using APA format, your paper should be at least two pages in length (approximately one page per observation).

Your observation prompts for the two separate observations are:

1. Discuss the value and importance of involving parents based on what you observed.
2. Is the instruction, teacher or child directed? Would the interactions have changed if the instruction was different?
3. What did you like about what you observed and how would you have changed the instruction?
