Connection Finn
Finn's reading talked about the study Jean Anyon completed about the different classes. In my service learning school, most of the students are from working class families. One time, there was an issue during school and the teacher had to call home. It was then noted that the parents didn't answer because they were at work. Another example happened at my job. I have one student who's dad is a firefighter and would only see her Dad every couple of days due to his work schedule. In addition, another families' Mom is a nurse. She typically worked over nights meaning there would be days the kids didn't see her until the next morning or ever after school the next day.I come from a working class family myself and there is a constant movement of who will be home when and where everyone is at different parts in the day. Sometimes its "Is it a late night for Dad?" or finally Dad is home early.
