Blackfoot School Case Study
The Blackfoot School District has gone through many leadership changes in the past 5 years. We have had three different super intendents, and 5 out of 6 elementary principals changed schools. I think that the district is doing better at curriculum planning now that leadership changes are settling down. The district also hired a new curriculum director that is amazing and very well organized. I am excited to see all her hard work continue to improve our district. I also had no idea how much planning and organizing went into curriculum changes. I thought that a committee was formed, written curriculum examples and pilots were given out, and then the committee got together and made a recommendation after piloting material.

    There are three geographical-linguistic groups, but when they’re looked at as a collective, they’re known as Blackfoot. The term Blackfoot is most likely coined due to the practice of coloring their moccasins with ashes. The three groups got together only during ceremonies. The Blackfoot were known as one of the most aggressive groups in North America because when they fought, it was typically raiding enemies for horses or just getting revenge. Their homes were usually made out of bison hide which was supported by poles. During the summer, they lived in big camps where they engaged in activities such as the Sun Dance. In the winter they separated into groups of of 10-20 families. There were multiple leaders, but only one…

    Black pedagogy, or poisonous pedagogy, is a type of child rearing or methodical upbringing process intended to instill a sense of social superego within the child, and implement a defense against their psyche. Many theorists describe the behaviors and communications associated with the concept to be very violent and manipulative. The parents intentions focus primarily around honing obedience and preparing children for a dominant adult culture. The story of “Little Red Riding Hood” ties in heavily with black pedagogy. During the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, a majority of children's literature existed as a way of “civilizing children according to stringent codes of class behavior.” The girls mother deliberately leads her into a pedagogical situation in which she cant get out, and ultimately subjects her to dangerous experiences and eventual death.

The mothers only requirements serve grave importance as she tells her to stay on the path and not to ruin the food for her grandmother, which hints at the importance of primacy of family, and unquestioned filial loyal.…
