I did my first Classroom Observation in Candace Warmer's Speaking class for level 2A on Monday August 29 at 1pm. I came on the day that she really dived into class rules because it was the start of the CIES students' first full week of classes. I feel like I lucked out by seeing how she plans to structure the course for the semester and all the students were very respectful towards her. She then revisited an activity they had started the week before where the students used key phrases to build a relevant dialogue. The students were able to practice their speaking and vocabulary while actively participating. I stayed in my seat for the majority of the observation because there were very few students and I felt awkward walking around when I was not the teacher. Though, due to the small number of students I could easily observe each student from my chair as they were all in earshot.
