The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore, through the lenses of social constructivism and critical theory along with John Dewey's theory of progressive education, Northeastern Ohio inner ring elementary kindergarten teacher perspectives on standardized testing and the obstacles these tests pose to curriculum development, classroom instruction, and assessments. This research also sought alternative methods of curriculum development, classroom instruction, and assessments that might be employed if high stakes testing were not in place. Keeping in mind the importance and understanding of the influence of progressive education in other countries and the reasons for eliminating or reducing standardized testing, an analysis of the responses of Ohio public school kindergarten teachers yielded themes and trends of possible educational reform if standardized testing were reduced or eliminated in the United States. Themes emerging from the study indicate a willingness and/or desire of teachers to move toward a more progressive philosophy of education and will aid in the formation of potential policy changes at the local, state, and national levels.

520 $a Central Research Questions. 1. How do high-stakes standardized tests in grades 3--8 affect curriculum development, classroom instruction, and assessments in the kindergarten classroom? 2. If high stakes standardized tests in grades 3--8 were removed, what, if anything, would public school kindergarten teachers do differently in the kindergarten classroom with regards to curriculum development, classroom instruction, and assessments?
