I have seen many instances where she has grown in her development and I have also notice some instances where she has stayed the same. She mostly keeps to herself and seldom talks.

Initially, I was extremely nervous to perform the observations because I was unsure that I would be able to record all of the significant information into the running record fast enough. I also felt that it would be difficult to sit in one position and watch a child for twenty to ninety minutes.
