Gender Play (UK Higher Education OUP Humanities & Social Sciences Educati)
By Thorne.
Description
You see it in every school playground: the girls play only with girls, the boys play only with boys. Why? And what do children themselves think about this? Breaking with familiar conventions for thinking about children and gender, Gender Play develops fresh insights into the everyday social worlds of kids in schools. Barrie Thorne draws on her daily observations in the classroom and in the playground to show how children construct and experience gender in school. She looks in detail at the play of gender in the organization of groups of children and activities. - from Amzon
