SUMMARY:An Anti-Bias Approach to Recognizing the Holidays
DESCRIPTION:An anti-bias approach to recognizing holidays prioritizes inclusivity and respect for diverse cultural backgrounds. Instead of focusing on mainstream or dominant holidays\, early childhood programs celebrate various cultural and religious observances\, ensuring children feel represented and valued. \nTaking an anti-bias approach to recognizing holidays will help you foster a learning environment where children learn about and appreciate different traditions\, cultivating empathy and understanding. By incorporating various holidays into the curriculum\, early childhood professionals promote inclusivity and empower children to embrace the richness of cultural diversity in their learning experiences. \nTrainer: Cheryl Joseph\, Associate Professor of Early Childhood Education\, Oakton College \nAudience:  All Providers \n2 Learning Hours; Level of Learning: Introductory \nFee: \nNon 4-C Members: $10 \n4-C Members: Free
