Abstract | This multi-case analysis uses video-cued multi-voiced ethnography in two culturally distinct regions of a Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) U.S. state with high levels of accountability to explore how cultural and demographic differences within state borders might impact how teachers view UPK curriculum and standards, how they teach, and how they view one another's language and literacy practices. The report focused on pre-kindergarten teachers in P-5 public schools. The pre-kindergarten teachers carried out unique processes of emplacement. Emplacement in this case was the process of pre-kindergarten becoming part of the P-5 public schools while remaining uniquely aligned with early childhood. Fields of care and domains of commonality are two major themes from the fields of anthropology and geography used to organize the findings. The findings have implications for thinking about the role of culture in P-5 education. This study shows promise for using video-cued methods in state-level research and associated professional development contexts. (As Provided). |
