What effects do space and time have on classroom management,
discipline, and regulation? How do teachers' practices create
schooled and literate students? To explore these questions, this
book looks at early childhood classrooms, charting the shifts and
continuities as four-year-old children begin preschool, move from
preschool into primary school, and come to the end of the first
phase of schooling at nine years. The literacy classroom is used as
a specific site in which to examine how children's bodies are
disciplined to become literate. This is not a book that theorizes
space, time, discipline, bodies, and literacy in abstract ways.
Rather, working from a Foucaultian premise that discipline is
directed onto children's bodies, it moves from theory to practice.
Photographs, lesson transcripts, interviews, and children's work
show how teachers' practices are enacted on children's bodies in
time and space. In this way, teachers are offered practical
examples from which to think about their own classrooms and
classroom practice, and to reflect on what works, why it works, and
what can be changed.
