Gender Identity in Early Childhood Education
In-Person Workshop | Available
During this workshop we will discuss gender identity with specific attention to children who are gender fluid, transgender, and/or gender non-conforming. We will discuss language to use, some statistics and share stories of real children. We will also discuss how we can change our language, curriculum, materials in the environment, songs we sing and books we share in our settings to develop an inclusive environment for children whose gender is fluid or non-conforming. Finally, we will offer participants several scenarios that include transgender children and how to work with other families and teachers in the setting to educate them on these issues and updating policy as needed.
