[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the teacher meant well, was trying to come from a good place. I think it falls under the category of poor judgment because the kids are young. I remember when my child's K teacher read a story to the class about the civil rights movement and talked to the kids about the police using dogs attack black people. My child was very disturbed by this image and I believed that the teacher should have chosen a book that was age appropriate. [/quote] Yes. What she probably should have done was shirt colors, or something else, or really saved the lesson plan for an older age.[/quote] No. Let's not use clothing or give half the class stickers and try to teach the kids about racism. I would agree about using books and about having courageous conversations but not about trying to repeat systems of racism in your own classroom [/quote]
