Standards Vs. 'Standard' Knowledge, Edmund T. Hamann
Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications
This chapter (one of 40 in the book "Everyday Antiracism", edited by Mica Pollock) matches the format of other entries in the book by providing direct, research-grounded advice for ways of reducing racism in American schools and reducing its damage for students. This chapter focuses on the de facto recognized skills of two English learners (ELLs) who were kept in an intermediate class because of their teacher's need to have their assistance as interpreters, but highlights how this linguistic competence actually de jure counted against these learners making their progress appear slower than it was.

The outdoor environment gives teachers a perfect location and the tools to teach and meet standards in the early childhood classroom.
