Playing It Straight: Uncovering Gender Discourse in the Early Childhood Classroom

by Mindy Blaise

Book Overview

In particular, this book uses alternative theoretical perspectives to focus on how young children are 'doing' gender in kindergarten classroom.
Rather than relying exclusively on biological and socialization theories of gender construction, Blaise breaks down theoretical barriers with new understandings of how gender is socially and politically constructed by young children.
