Lessons from a Navajo Kindergarten KAREN GALLAS Teacher-researcher, poet, and author of Sometimes I Can Be Anything: Power, Gender, and Identity in a Primary Classroom "TEACHING AS ETHNOGRAPHY? LESSONS FROM A NAVAJO KINDERGARTEN" The talk proposes that the process of conceptualizing teacher research as ethnography leads to a deep shift in the ways that teachers and students approach instruction, learning, and curriculum. Using a description of her work with Navajo kindergarteners, Dr. Gallas describes how classroom ethnography problematizes and reconfigures basic principles of literacy learning and teaching. |
