While the world grapples with conversations around structural racism, diversity, and inclusion, our children are watching, listening, and learning. As early childhood educators, we have the unique opportunity to support our children’s understanding of complex topics like identity, race, and difference. The ways in which we engage with our children have the power to shape them, and in turn the future of our world.
Join us for an engaging and motivational 3-day virtual symposium that will include workshops that cover topics such as:
How can we create inclusive, culturally responsive learning environments?
How can we best integrate anti-bias practices into teaching and learning?
What strategies can we use to engage with families in equitable ways?
When is Takiema speaking?
