ECE 405 Week 1 DQ 2 Children and Prejudice For
more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com   Children
and Prejudice. In Vivian Gussin Paleys book,
You Cant Say, You Cant Play, a hierarchy of
bosses and outcasts emerges year after year
in her classroom. What, in your experience with
children, determines this hierarchy and how much
of it is due to the development of
pre-prejudicial behavior in children? Provide
examples and then consider why it is important to
address this behavior earlier rather than later.

ECE 405 Week 2 DQ 1 Race Illusion vs. Reality
For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com   Rac
e Illusion vs. Reality. Review the seven
propositions including the accompanying videos
on Understanding the Influence of Race
(http//www.tolerance.org/tdsi/uir_intro). From
these links and videos, you will learn that much
of what we hold to be true about race is a social
construction, which has little connection to
human biology. Unfortunately this means children
of different races may face stereotypes based on
the way they look or speak. As an early childhood
educator, you will be in a unique position to
make an impact on children of all racial
backgrounds. Refer to the information provided in
the links as you consider the scenario below

ECE 405 Week 2 DQ 2 Cultural Differences For
more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com   Cultural
Differences. On page 64, your text offers a list
of 13 childrearing patterns that differ between
cultures. These can create challenges for
educators when family structures and norms
conflict with the assumed norms of the school. In
the US, these are most often based on white,
middle-class cultural assumptions. Provide an
example from your own life or one in the media
where these values have led to conflict or
misunderstandings between the school and family.
How might the educator or school have responded
in a more culturally sensitive manner? Respond to
at least two of your classmates postings.

ECE 405 Week 3 DQ 2 The Role of Families and
Communities in Culturally Relevant Anti-Bias
Education For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.
com   The Role of Families and Communities in
Culturally Relevant Anti-Bias Education. Often
school attempts to connect with families fail.
One reason is that schools assume the role of
educator and expect families to go out of their
way to learn how they can help modify family
patterns to best suit the school environment.
However, a more effective way to connect to
families is for teachers to go out into the
communities they serve and learn more about
those communities. Based on this idea, describe
two-to-three specific ways you can become more
educated and knowledgeable of the families you
will be serving locally and identify resources
you might like to explore.
