What I Have Learned


One hope that I have is that all children and families will come be accepting if one another and not judge. I hope the children can be a positive influence on their parents by sharing with them what they’ve learned about anti-bias education. Sometimes children have a way of reaching adults in a different way than other adults.

One goal I would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice is for no educators to have hidden biases and discomforts. When this happens it can make it difficult for educators to teach children about anti-bias education when they themselves have biases. I know it is difficult, but I don’t think it’s impossible. Our children are depending on us.

I would like to thank all my colleagues for sharing their stories and thoughts during discussion posts and for the comments on my discussion posts. I wish everyone well as they move forward and hope we all become great anti-bias educators.
