    This guide explains how to implement culturally relevant anti-bias education with children ages zero to eight in early childhood settings. It describes how diversity affects classrooms; the belief that children are too young to understand bias; racism; the effects of differences in culture in children's behavior, communication, and learning; how children acquire second languages and how to support dual language learners; and how the social, political, and historical environment of families affects children's development. Following these chapters are implementation ideas for anti-bias education, classrooms, and activities. This edition adds new activities, more focus on English language learners, updated research and practical examples, ideas for family engagement, and staff training recommendations.
