Critical Literacy in the Early Childhood Classroom - Unpacking Histories, Unlearning Privilege

Klappentext Shares the author's transformative journey as a literacy teacher/researcher examining her experience as a White, middle-class female. Kuby argues that it is not enough for teachers to implement curricula and pedagogical strategies designed to foster inclusiveness. Instead, teachers must look inward, questioning their personal histories, biases, and beliefs in order to develop better self-awareness.
