Culp, Mara E.; Davis, Virginia Wayman – Journal of General Music Education, 2023
In U.S. music education, the elementary music program is the level most likely to include all students, before music becomes an elective choice in secondary schools. As students approach adolescence, however, their interest in general music may decline, particularly if they are not engaged in activities they find meaningful. Although past research…

Culp, Mara E.; Davis, Virginia Wayman – Journal of General Music Education, 2023
The elementary music program is often most likely to include all students in the United States. As such, teachers have an opportunity to encourage lifelong musicianship and musical engagement. Researchers have reported, however, that children's interest in school music activities declines over the elementary years, and general music teachers…

Patrick K. Kirkland; Claire Guang; Nicole M. McNeil – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Students with mature number sense make sense of numbers and operations, use reasoning to notice patterns, and flexibly select the most effective and efficient problem-solving strategies (McIntosh et al., 1997; Yang, 2005). Despite being highlighted in national standards and policy documents (CCSS, 2010; NCTM, 2000), the association between…

Jane Hubbard; Hannah Marino – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
For students to develop adequate conceptual understanding about fractions, they require experiences that afford them opportunities to think flexibly about multiple interpretations of fractions. This article presents a sequence of lessons designed to offer such experiences for students in Years 3 and Year 4. The lessons adopt a challenging tasks…

Kristen Danielle McCollum – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The goal of this qualitative case study was to investigate the influence of culturally responsive teaching on the academic engagement of Black third and fourth grade students. For many years, schools have been faced with evidence that shows classrooms and schools are failing to meet the academic needs of students of color, particularly Black…

Kari Dalane; Dave E. Marcotte – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2024
The share of students attending charter schools has been rising. There is evidence that charter school growth has increased socioeconomic segregation of students between schools. In this paper, we assess whether charter school growth affects how students are organized within nearby traditional public schools (TPS). We use administrative data from…

Victoria I. Adedeji; Julie A. Kirkby; Martin R. Vasilev; Timothy J. Slattery – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2024
Purpose: Children progress from making grapheme-phoneme connections to making grapho-syllabic connections before whole-word connections during reading development (Ehri, 2005a). More is known about the development of grapheme--phoneme connections than is known about grapho-syllabic connections. Therefore, we explored the trajectory of syllable use…

Leanne Guihot-Balcombe – International Journal of Education & the Arts, 2024
"Intervention on a String" sought to examine puppets and puppetry in the education domain. This research project sought to examine puppets in the classroom to see if their inclusion helped raise levels of student engagement, socialisation, and participation. Moreover, this project sought to understand how and why puppets, as pedagogical…

Jacob Pleasants; Kristyn Sartin – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
Engineering design is being increasingly included in elementary education, typically to provide students with opportunities to apply science and mathematics concepts while developing their engineering practices. An important question is how to prepare teachers who can help students develop more informed engineering practices during classroom…

Carol Lynn Martin; Sonya Xinyue Xiao; Richard A. Fabes; Laura D. Hanish; Dawn DeLay; Krista Oswalt – Elementary School Journal, 2024
Boys and girls sit together in most classrooms, but do they interact? Based on 40-year-old evidence, coeducational classes may not be coeducational but instead segregated by gender, which may undermine student success. Our goal is to answer this question in today's classrooms. We used longitudinal data to assess gender segregation in 26 classes in…

Chang Xu; Hongxia Li; Sabrina Di Lonardo Burr; Jiwei Si; Jo-Anne LeFevre; Xinfeng Zhuo – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
Students' understanding of the meaning of the equal sign develops slowly over the primary grades. In addition to updating their representations of equations to recognize that the equal sign represents an equivalence relation rather than signaling an operation, students need to move beyond full computation to efficiently solve equivalence problems.…

This quantitative, nonexperimental study used Bronfenbrenner's process-person-context-time (PPCT) model to determine if mathematics scores of underprivileged, minority third- and fourth-grade students attending an inner-city school in a Central Oklahoma school district differed between their traditional 2018-2019 school year and post-lockdown…

Drama has the potential to enrich and enliven established approaches to literacy learning, engaging students and expanding their possibilities for meaning-making. Drama-rich pedagogy is well-established as an effective tool in supporting language and literacy development. However, research to date has not explored the possibilities of using drama…
