Abstract
ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study is to investigate how gender manifests itself in Norwegian kindergarten, as observed by students during three weeks’ work experience. The empirical basis was collated from 40 accounts of work experience from 20 kindergartens. Student kindergarten teachers’ observations of how gender is expressed in kindergarten forms the background of the analysis. The results show that staff contribute to upholding traditional gender stereotypes in kindergarten. Girls and boys are treated differently; girls and boys challenge prevailing gender structures while kindergarten staff simultaneously conform to gender stereotypes.
