My hope is that in learning about diversity, and how to create an anti-bias classroom, that I can truly respect all the cultures, and uniqueness that comes into my classroom. I hope that I have the proper amount of compassion when it comes to talking with parents about tough topics. I have no doubt that I have compassion for the students, I cry whenever I talk to parents and I tell them something amazing that their child did. I am a big softie. Which is why I think that it is hard for me to approach some topics, is because I do not want to upset anyone. In order to reach out to all my families, I have to at least be willing to take that step!
My goal is to get my students involved! I want them to be able to ask the questions that make us all need to research the topic, and then bring it into the classroom. I want them to be able to understand about diversity and the beauty of everyone being unique. With this goal, I hope that it makes parents stop and assess some of the situations that they put their children in, which would compromise their ability to see an anti-bias society.
Thank you to everyone that has visited my page over the course of this class. I have enjoyed reading your comments and suggestions, and take them to heart. I have learned some much from all of you, in reading your blogs as well, and cannot wait to finish out this program working with you all again!
