| Anti-Bias Curriculum |
|
| |
|
| The goals of an
anti-bias program: |
 |
|
| To nurture each
child’s construction of a knowledgeable, confident
self-concept and group identity - creating education
conditions in which each child learns to like the person
he/she is without feeling superior to anyone |
|
| To promote
each child’s comfortable, emphatic interaction with people from
diverse backgrounds |
|
| To foster
each child’s critical thinking about bias - teaching each child to
identify unfair or inconsistent images, comments, and behaviors |
|
| To cultivate
each child’s empathy and ability to stand up for himself/herself and
others in the face of bias |
