In the program, we role-play some possible conflicts between parents and early childhood professionals, to help prepare teachers for today’s diverse world. Through viewing diverse opinions among and across cultures, we see that disagreement is healthy (really, it is!). We see how people of the same cultural background can have wildly different ideas about how things should be done.
This program:
• Highlights communication blocks
• Points out ways of creating connections
• Shows sample areas of disagreement (mostly around neatness/messiness and toileting)
• Shows people learning to understand and respect diversity.
34 minutes.
