OBSERVATION FOCUSED ON LANGUAGE

Directions: Observe this clip, and write down what the caregiver says and does. Go back, observe again, and write down specific child responses each time the caregiver talks. You can watch as many times as you want, filling out your observation with more details each time. Write this up at the end as a running record observation (as in the directions in the Video Observation for Chapter 2.) You can record your observation in the space provided in the Caregiver's Companion that accompanies your textbook.
