Observations in the Classroom

As a sophomore, I am starting my education classes where I am observing at Stuart Day School in Princeton, New Jersey. Every week, I observe an all girls 3rd grade class, which is about the age I would like to teach. Not only do I observe, but help the teacher with routine chores like grading papers and helping her with projects, and then more hands on things like reading with a student or helping them with their math work.
In my Contexts of Schooling and Developmental Education Psychology classes, I've learned many terms that I can now link to the observations in the classroom. In my Developmental Education Psychology class, I was asked to write a paper describing 3 education terms and relate it to a in class observation. Here is the assignment.
