| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present study is to explore how first-grade children learn the hidden curriculum. In the 2000 fiscal year, interactions observed and recorded on videotape in 58 lessons of one first-grade class in April, June, November, and March (in 2001) are compared by coding and interpretive analysis. The class has 40 children, the number of boys and girls being the same. The teacher is a 39-year-old man with 17 years' teaching experience. The result shows that children learn classroom rules which are included in the hidden curriculum, that is, "how to assume an appropriate posture", "how to express one's opinion" and "how to give a direction" etc. When the school year starts, the teacher first uses the strategy of "explaining", then he comes to take the strategy of "praising", "advising" and "waiting". In the 2001 fiscal year, interactions are observed and recorded on videotape in 32 homerooms and 48 lessons of another first-grade class in April, November, and February (in 2002). The class has 35 children, 20 boys and 15 girls. The teacher is a 54-year-old woman with 32 years' teaching experience. An ADHD (attention deficit/hyperkinetic disorder) child and a child who has never been to kindergarten or nursery school were focused and compared by interpretive analysis. The result shows that the teacher spent more time on interaction with the two children than others and instructed them in social skills. The study reveals that through the interaction the teacher teaches all the children in the latter class the hidden curriculum which is to "be patient", that is, to follow a teacher's instructions, to wait for one's turn, or to concentrate on a task.
