"]]> 2020-11-12 23:37:57 UTC https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918831802 Something that stood out to me... https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918835718 In the section on microaggressions, it asks us to consider the message we may be sending to students with disabilities when we say "oh, let me help you" or "I'll do that for you". This is a microaggression because it comes with the assumption that this student is unable to complete a task independently and over time, may lead them to believe that they are not capable and are dependent on others. It is a good reminder that microaggressions are often not meant to harm others intentionally, but can have a huge impact on a person, especially over time.  ]]> 2020-11-12 23:40:23 UTC https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918835718 Quote https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918836290 "Advancing equity in early childhood education requires understanding the ways in which historical and current inequities have shaped the profession, shaped the nation"]]> 2020-11-12 23:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918836290 Special Focus: Immigrants and Refugees https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918837472 I appreciate that the chapter did a special focus on immigrant and refugee families and clear steps we can take to protect our students and their families.]]> 2020-11-12 23:41:24 UTC https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918837472 Each Gear Moves Another https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918841872 when you work on one goal it moves all of them - thinking about the goals as working together and moving together was a neat way of looking at it.]]> 2020-11-12 23:44:18 UTC https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918841872 Acknowledging dominant culture... https://padlet.com/eeuequity/l4ji5kbvd24fnvu9/wish/918844117 It is so important for us to acknowledge the dominant culture that exists within our school, community, and within ourselves. It is so easy for us to think of White culture as just "normal"
