  • Primary-Grade Students' Knowledge and Thinking About Clothing As a Cultural Universal
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 439 072 SO 031 485 AUTHOR Brophy, Jere; Alleman, Janet TITLE Primary-Grade Students' Knowledge and Thinking about Clothing as a Cultural Universal. SPONS AGENCY Spencer Foundation, Chicago, IL. PUB DATE 1999-00-00 NOTE 253p. PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC11 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Action Research; American Indian History; *American Indians; Curriculum Development; Educational Philosophy; Educational Research; Elementary Education; *Elementary School Students; Qualitative Research; *Social Studies; *Student Attitudes; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *Native Americans ABSTRACT This paper summarizes responses of students in grades K-3 to questions about Native Americans. The paper draws on findings from two studies, both done in a suburban school system deemed "average" on a variety of educational and socioeconomic indicators. In each study, samples of students stratified by gender and achievement level were interviewed individually about topics addressed in social studies. Analyses focused not just on the accuracy of responses, but on their qualitative nuances that provided insights into students' ideas, including their misconceptions. Responses across grades K-3 suggest that students' knowledge and thinking about Native Americans tends to proceed through the following stages:(1) no knowledge;(2) cartoon stereotypes of the appearance or behavior of Indians; (3) Indians as the first people in America, wilderness survivors, and teachers of and learners from the Pilgrims and other early Europeans; (4) knowledge about Indians' lives and cultures and empathy with them as noble ecologists and victims of European aggression and greed; and (5) distancing and loss of empathy as attention shifts to the pioneers and the westward expansion of the United States.
