EXCELLENT advice Judy2/CA.
It has to be stressful to have someone observe, unannounced for
45 minutes! How often does this happen during the year? You
might (IF you would feel comfortable doing this) talk to the
principal about your reaction when observed, especially after the
observation went poorly. Perhaps he/she could drop by for
shorter time periods also, to get a true sense of your teaching
ability. Best wishes
