21. Anti-Bias Curriculum
    AntiBias curriculum. Children injustice. Anti-bias curriculum embraces an educational philosophy as well as specific techniques and content.  
    http://www.head-start.lane.or.us/education/curriculum/anti-bias.html
    
    Extractions: Children are aware very young that color, language, gender, and physical ability differences are connected with privilege and power. They learn by observing the differences and similarities among people and by absorbing the spoken and unspoken messages about those differences. Racism, sexism, and handicappism have a profound influence on their developing sense of self and others. All children are harmed. On the one hand, struggling against bias that declares a person inferior because of gender, race, ethnicity, or disability sucks energy from and undercuts a child's full development. On the other hand, learning to believe they are superior because the are White, or male, or able-bodied, dehumanizes and distorts reality for growing children, even while they may be receiving the benefits of institutional privilege. The "practice of freedom" is fundamental to anti-bias education. Curriculum goals are to enable every child: to construct a knowledgeable, confident self-identity: to develop comfortable, empathetic, and just interaction with diversity: and to develop critical thinking and the skills for standing up for oneself and others in the face of injustice. Anti-bias curriculum embraces an educational philosophy as well as specific techniques and content. It is value based: Differences are good: oppressive ideas and behaviors are not. It sets up a creative tension between respecting differences and not accepting unfair beliefs and acts. It asks teachers and children to confront troublesome issues rather than covering them up. An anti-bias perspective is intergral to all aspects of daily classroom life.

NACDAB Executive Board This year, many NACOG Head Start activities focused on the 35 th Anniversary of “Project Head Start”. Many of our year long activities have been reflective of NACOG’s participation in this historical program. Most importantly, we have used this time to focus on the massive growth and change that has occurred since the inception of Head Start in northern Arizona. The “35 th Anniversary” theme helped us focus on the individual struggles, dedication, and vision that are the history of Head Start. It also gave us the opportunity to reflect on the many staff, parents, community partners and other supporters who have helped NACOG successfully address the needs of our families for over 30 years. As we move toward our year-end activities, I would like to ask that we all continue to support growth and change as a normal part of our program’s foundation. It is obvious that Head Start will continue to expand and that our ability to address this change will be the tool needed to provide quality services. Today is the time to carefully evaluate the quality of our program’s services and the individual efforts that we have made on behalf of the children and families that we serve. Your support in developing a future vision of a successful Head Start program, that is founded on those principles that have been part of our 35-year history, will ensure that Head Start services will be available for future generations of children and families.

    Extractions: (The author represents the FACES study research team) Begun in 1997, FACES is a way to look at the program performance of Head Start and its children over time. It began with a stratified national probability sample of 40 programs and 3,200 children who were followed from the time they entered Head Start at ages 3 or 4 through first grade. In 2000, a second group of 43 different programs and 2,800 children was selected for study. Because data are now available on the 1997 and the 2000 groups of children, we can look at how the program and children are changing over time. Is the quality of Head Start improving? Are children learning more now than just a few years ago? Are they progressing in certain areas of development but not in others? Head Start classroom quality Program and teacher characteristics relating to classroom quality: Curricula: 70 percent of teachers used a single, specific curriculum while just over 20 percent used a combination. The majority used The Creative Curriculum by Teaching Strategies Inc. (39 percent) or the High/Scope curriculum (20 percent), but 41 percent used another curriculum. Nearly 60 percent of teachers received training in their curriculum from their own programs, with 14 percent receiving it from the curricula developers, 10 percent from Head Start Quality Improvement Center, and the remainder from other sources. More than 90 percent of teachers liked their curriculum for a variety of reasons including that it covered multiple domains, was easy use and adapt, involved parents, provided room for teacher creativity, and had adequate learning materials.

    Extractions: Landover, Maryland 11:00 A.M. EDT THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all. Thanks for coming. Windy, thank you very much. I'm proud of you. I'm proud of your dedication. It is a great country where Windy can come from a Head Start program and is now a leader in the movement to make sure Head Start fulfills the promise of the program. First, I want to thank the good folks here at Highland Park Elementary School for letting me come by and see a program which works. I don't know if the people in the State of Maryland know this, I know the Governor does the teachers here and the program here uses a strategy, what they call a Center for Improving Readiness for Children, Learning and Education, C.I.R.C.L.E., which is a model program. It's a program that incorporates profound and simple reading lessons necessary to lay the foundation for future readers. And it's a program that's working. There is a strong emphasis on learning. There is obviously the continued Head Start focus on good nutrition and health care. This program also works well because the parents are involved.

    Extractions: The Bush Administration's Early Childhood Initiative Strengthening Head Start Overview In 1994, the Early Head Start program was established because of the mounting evidence that the earliest years, from birth to 3 years of age, also are crucial to children's growth and development. In FY 2002, an estimated 62,000 toddlers will be served under the Early Head Start program. During the 1999 reauthorization of Head Start, Congress mandated that Head Start programs implement standards of learning in early literacy, language, and numeracy skills. These standards of learning set the following goals for children enrolled in Head Start: Develop phonemic, print, and numeracy awareness.

    Extractions: One of the most important tasks in working with teachers is to help them develop their own abilities to create developmentally appropriate curriculum for young children. This paper reflects on, from two perspectives, the ongoing process of how teachers develop an understanding of how children learn and how that process affects curriculum development and implementation. The dialogue between a teacher trainer and a teacher she has been working with for six years reveals how the process unfolds over time. The teacher trainer and teacher reflect on their experiences in ongoing teacher training and implementation of emergent, project-oriented curriculum.
