Guidelines for ObserversGuidelines requested by the teachers in the De Anza Childcare Center
1. Be nonobtrusive. Please find a spot that doesn't infringe on the children's space.
2. If you are with a small group or another person, do not observe together. Separate and space yourself.
3. Do not talk to other visitors during the observations
4. You may respond to children, but please do not initiate conversations with them.
5. If a child seems upset that you are near, remove yourself from the area. If the child asks you to leave, respond by acknowledging, "This is your space. I will leave."
6. Please do not interfere with the teaching/ learning process during the observation. Questions are welcome but not during class time. If you have questions, you can leave a note in the teacher's mailbox.
7. Walk around the periphery of the year or classrooms rather than through them.
8. Please do not hover over children. Sit, squat or bend down at the knees so you are at the children's level.
9. Taking photographs is not permitted. In special cases, permission for photographs may be given by the Child Development Center Director.
