One particular area that they develop are the verbal and nonverbal social roles and actions tied to gender in their community. When parents communicate with their children in different ways, they transfer ideas of adults, both male and female in their society and socialize them to an image of themselves and how they fit into the gender roles of society (Kyratzis & Cook-Gumperz, 2008). A child’s interactions with their family and community shape their views and opinions of gender roles. ]]> 2016-12-08 16:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142600618 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142628977 “Language socialization is the human developmental process whereby a child or other novice (of any age) acquires the knowledge, skills, orientations, and practices that enable him or her to participate in the social life of a particular community” (Garrett, 200p.189). ]]> 2016-12-08 17:45:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142628977 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142629790 It has been discovered that it is “through observing the ways in which language is used in family routines such as dinnertime interactions, and caregiving and requesting rituals, children can become socialized to their culture’s views of gender roles and power relationships between men and women” (Kyratzis & Cook-Gumperz, 2008, p.146). ]]> 2016-12-08 17:48:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142629790 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142637670 180 Elementary students said were the most important gender specific characteristics]]> 2016-12-08 18:11:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142637670 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142638779 Even though a child may feel strongly about certain gender roles, they also are deciding whether they want to follow these preconceived ideas or not. 
Through this research it was found that many children just want to do what they like. They do not care whether it is supposed to be for the opposite gender or not. The important factor is their entertainment and enjoyment. ]]> 2016-12-08 18:15:02 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142638779 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142642839 2016-12-08 18:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142642839 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142658054 Before the findings....]]> 2016-12-08 19:08:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142658054 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142662931 The school environment plays a major role in how we perceive ourselves and if gender stereotypes will be a hold us back from reaching our full potential.

Children learn gender, they are not born knowing boys wear blue and girls wear pink. As a result, their family's opinions and social views become the forefront of their beliefs until they receive exposure. Through dramatic play, it was evident the influence that gender roles in the home play on how the students view each other and what is expected of each member of a family unit. ]]> 2016-12-08 19:38:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142667374 sondra1187 https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142669311 Family life lays a solid foundation for gender socialization. Then as students come to school their views begin to change and morph depending on what they see and experience in the classroom. Eventually, they begin to form their own opinions of what their role is as a male or female and if they want to follow the stereotype or not]]> 2016-12-08 19:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sondra1187/whosaidgirlscantrunfast/wish/142669311
