dc.description.abstractThis thesis is a narrative inquiry into the experiences of two children’s lives in school. I lived alongside the two children in their grade five classroom for eight months of their school year inquiring into the ways that their school experiences and their relationships with the teacher, classmates, and subject matter influenced the way they composed their stories to live by. In this thesis I share a personal reflection on the way my story to live by has been shaped by my experiences, specifically as a student, a teacher, and a researcher. I use field notes and taped conversations with each of the two boys to retell the stories they shared with me and apply them to literature and theory. I use Dewey’s Criteria of Experience within a narrative framework to help understand and retell the stories of the two boys as well as Clandinin, Pushor, and Murray Orr’s commonplaces of narrative inquiry: place, temporality, and sociality. I explore Aoki’s planned and lived curriculum and Noddings’ ethic of care and fidelity in teaching as they applied to the inquiry.en_US
