Publisher : Universitas Teuku Umar

In this paper, we draw upon three observation data to explore the concept of pretend play and peer cultures among kindergarten children situated in a childcare center of the Midwestern area of the U.S. Framed in this study, Paley’s (1992) notion of dynamic play that exists within children that children behavior is changing over time and across ages. Pretend-play and peer culture are worth investigating to better understand children’s social development that might have implication for their success in education. Two observation data were obtained from a university-based Child Care Center, and one from an Indonesian family who have lived in the U.S. for three years. 12 children aged three to four years old and two kindergarten teachers were involved during the observation. The observations lasted for about 40 minutes. The findings suggest that the children were involved in different kinds of play: (1) spontaneous fantasy, and (2) socio-dramatic play. Spontaneous fantasy is when children are involved in a less structured play or no strict rule that governs the activity. Socio-dramatic play is kinds of play when children take agency that exist in the society, such as mothers, fathers, workers, and other adulthood. Both types of pretend play embodied shared knowledge about how to play appropriately based on the theme and plot emerged.

This article reports the literacy teaching and learning of a boys-only weekend class in a mosque of a midwestern city, United States. As part of the Muslim’s community who regularly attended the weekend class that studied Qur’an and Arabic, I interviewed the participants (teacher, principal, students, and parents), observed their class interactions, took notes during and after the interactions, and gathered some artifacts that portrayed the interactions and the teaching and learning processes. Coming from various cultural background, the students and teacher demonstrated shared motivation, yet divergent interpretations on the objective and the teaching learning interactions. Taking the perspectives of ethnography of communication (Hymes, 1964; Cameron, 2001), I found that the literacy practices in this community was motivated by the love and piety of God, strong ties to their cultural background, and the perpetuation of both faith and cultural identity.

The view of literacy as a social practice has changed the view of researchers to study not only the activities in formal setting but also beyond the school walls (Hull and Schultz, 2002; Street, 2003). This paper aims to shed light how foreign literacy practices in out-of-school context, particularly in tourist areas, may potentially contribute to the students’ literacy ability in the formal context. This ethnographic research was conducted over a two-week period which situated in tourist destination areas, namely Gapang, in the municipality of Sabang, Indonesia. The input data comes mainly from participant observation, audio recordings, interviews and field notes to examine the linkages between outside literacy and school attainment. The findings suggest that there was a linkage between the literacy practices outside and inside school for participant. Eventually, this study will be a beneficial input for teachers, parents and researchers, in the future study, to take into account the learning experiences available in both settings and integrate them into fruitful literacy learning at school.
