ECEC Value 4- Join the Live Discussion Wednesday, 6/3, at 7 pm EDT
Aligning early childhood practices and policies with research that supports healthy child development.
👶🏼We know what children need. So why aren't we doing it?
🌻Decades of child development research tell us clearly how young children grow, learn, and thrive. We know they need play, relationships, movement, outdoor time, and joy. We know they need agency and identity affirmation. We know academic pressure in the early years causes harm.
🙈We know all of this. And yet policies, mandates, and curricula continue to move in the opposite direction — as if the research doesn't exist, or doesn't matter, or is inconvenient for other agendas.
🪫This is not a knowledge problem. It is a power problem.
🧑🧒🧒Early childhood educators deserve to practice what the research actually supports, not what a policymaker, a publisher, or a standardized test demands. Aligning our practice with what we know about child development is not optional. It is our professional and moral obligation.
🫵🏾If you are ready to reclaim that obligation — Free to Teach = Liberated to Learn is your community. Free to join. Built for educators who refuse to leave the research behind. Scan the QR code to join!
🍱As a special collaboration, this live will also stream to the DEY Facebook page. This value stems from the Linking High Quality to Child Development Advocacy Toolkit.
