I would like to pick out the second critical incident which occurred during the music lesson. The children from daycare, I had the opportunity to have my field experience prepared for a musical show for mother’s day. Children from all classes taught poetry, songs, and dances more than two months. The music teacher came to the daycare every other day. Critical incident occurred at ten o’clock with a three years’ boy. The groups of children were gathered in the central classroom. Children were seated at their cheers and waited for their performance. Children felt themselves very relaxed and happy. Unexpectedly, three-year boy, let’s call him Michael, refused to recite a poem when his turn came.
