Editorial Reviews
Book Description

Perfect for pre-service and in-service teacher training, Start Seeing Diversity helps teachers recognize and address bias by illustrating one community's effort to create a responsive childcare program.

Developed by teachers at Washington-Beech Community Preschool in Boston, this training handbook provides a framework for understanding bias as it emerges among preschool children. Two detailed chapters contain information on six areas of bias and the goals and guiding assumptions of anti-bias curriculum, as well as discussion questions, scenarios, details for classroom implementation, resources and guidelines for group leaders.

Ellen Wolpert is the founding director of the Washington-Beech Community Preschool in Boston. Ms. Wolpert currently works for Education Development Center, Inc., in Newton, Massachusetts.
