I read this for an Early Childhood Education class, and it's amazing.
Parents, when you're looking for a preschool, you NEED to ask the director to show you the campus copy of this. If the campus does not have this on hand, do not put your kids in that preschool.
Basically, anyone can open a pre-school and anyone can run it any way they want (within bounds of state and federal laws), BUT Anti-Bias Curriculum (ABC) is the healthiest understanding for anyone who deals with a lot of different children on how to deal with how kids perceive differences between themselves and others. Also, whether you realize it or not, your kid is picking up YOUR biases before they even set foot in preschool, and this allows the preschool to teach the kids a healthy way to deal with those biases and learn how to accept other children who seem strange to them.
I would go so far to say that every teacher and administrator at any level should be required to read this, because even though its mostly talking about very little children, I think it would help in those schools who have found themselves faced with lawsuits because they had a teacher or administrator who did not know how to teach different kids like humans.

4.0 out of 5 stars The quality was fair rather than good.
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseI bought this document to replace the one I gave to a new teacher. Publsihed first in the 80s (I think), it is very relevant and inspirational. The quality was fair rather than good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Books
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis book I received well in advance also. It must be a pretty old book. It cost me .82 cents, the shipping was more than the book. I could of gotten this book from the resource room where I work, but I did not know they had them in stock. Either way, I was happy to get the book before I needed to use it. That is why I go through Amazon because they have the books I need, at a reasonable price.
