Embracing Identities in Early Childhood Education Diversities and Possibilities

Drawing on the work of early childhood teachers and teacher educators, this edited volume provides examples of creative ways in which practitioners and theorists are rethinking their work. Grounded in principles of equity, difference, and the recognition of racial, ethnic and sexual diversity, the book opens possibilities for thought and action. The contributors provide a range of thinking, theorizing, and practical applications on topical issues in the field such as: issues of equity and fairness in observing young children; gender identities in the early years; and working with non-traditional families. Readers will appreciate the multiple perspectives on views of children, care, and classroom knowledge.Grieshaber, Susan is the author of 'Embracing Identities in Early Childhood Education Diversities and Possibilities' with ISBN 9780807740781 and ISBN 0807740780.
