Anti-Bias Education is a social justice framework that offers early childhood educators a variety of strategies to help children learn to be proud of themselves and their families\, respect a range of human differences\, recognize unfairness and bias\, and speak up for the rights of others (Derman-Sparks & Edwards\, 2010). \nThis two-day workshop is for teachers who work with young children\, from toddlers through third grade. Educators will learn what an Anti-Bias Education approach is; basic teacher tools; specific curriculum ideas that counter biases related to race\, ethnicity\, religion\, class\, gender\, family structures\, or differing abilities. Woven through this workshop will be self-reflection activities to help educators think critically about their own experiences\, which will strengthen their ability to work effectively with children and families from all backgrounds. \n$160 Registration Fee includes book: Anti-Bias Education: For Young Children and Ourselves by Louise Derman-Sparks and Julie Olsen Edwards. \nWorkshop Objectives: \nParticipants will be able to: \nLearn what is an anti-bias education and the four goals of anti-bias education \nReview the historical and empirical support for anti-bias education \nAppreciate how young children develop their social identities \nIdentify how to become an anti-bias teacher and work effectively with children and families from all backgrounds \nUnderstand how to establish an anti-bias environment and curriculum \nDiscover specific curriculum ideas for various anti-bias topics\, including culture\, racial identity\, gender identity\, economic class\, family structures\, and different abilities \nLearn how to sustain an anti-bias education approach beyond this workshop. \nWorkshop Agenda: \nDay One \n8:15-8:45 Sign In \n9:00-9:15 Welcome & Introductions \n9:15-10:30 What is Anti-Bias Education?
