areas of life. Even in today's

classrooms….

Communication
Social
Five Out Comes of Cultural Conflicts
 Resolution through negotiation resulting in

compromise
 Ongoing management of the unresolved conflict
 Teacher education
 Mutual education in which teacher and parent
educate each other
We can Handle Diversity Issues
using this Formula
R= Reflect which includes both active listening and
self- reflection.
E= Explain your perspective, but only after trying
hard to understand the other’s perspective
R=Reason; give the reason for your perspective, if
you know it
U= Understand, both the other person feel
empowered
N= Negotiate a solution only when both you and the
other person feel empowered
Suggestions For Approaching
Cultural Conflicts
Take it Slow
• Building
understanding
takes time.
• You have to learn
to cope with
differences when
there is no
common
resolution

Understand
Yourself
• Become clear
about your own
values and goals
• Know what you
believe in
• Have a bottom
line, but leave
space above it to
be flexible

Become sensitive
to your own
discomfort
• Tune in to what is
bothering you
instead of just
ignoring it
• Work to identify
what specific
behaviors of
others make you
uncomfortable
• Try to discover
exactly what in
yourself creates
this discomforts.
Conclusion
 In Conclusion, Being an Early childhood

professional, it is our responsibility to
handle, learn, and teach diversity issues
sensitively.
