To weave is intertwine wires until they become a product. This book was “woven” from the author’s research, but also from her experiences as a teacher, educator, school principal and professional trainer. The work brings us reflections and practices on access to Written Language in Early Childhood Education and other aspects that involve this process. Initially it talks about the conceptions of Childhood, teacher and Early Education that permeate their ideas. The book focuses on Written Language as one of the different languages of the child, but considers all the fields of experiences of “Base National Common Curricular (BNCC)”. And to intertwine the fundamentals that permeate Early Childhood Education, the work brings contributions about times and spaces, curriculum, planning, pedagogical records, inclusion and methodologies. Subsequently, the author brings us practical suggestions for work in Early Childhood Education ending with the pedagogy of projects, their possibilities and examples of some projects experienced as a teacher. In this book you will go through different aspects of this phase of the child’s school life, walking through the tangle that forms around this subject. The child has the right to access Written Language and knowledge at school, without, however, putting aside the right to be a child.

Psychological Experiences

The purpose of this investigation is to deepen understanding of the clandestine professional lives of men who care for young children, exploring the pressure to hide parts of themselves experienced by many. The author utilizes an autoethnographic approach to examine social and psychological experiences he has navigated during his work as a classroom teacher, counselor, and researcher in urban Head Start centers. He finds that there are structural, attitudinal, social, and conceptual barriers to men being engaged in young children’s lives as educators and caregivers. In response, the author considers how dominant theories of caregiving in the field of early childhood education are informed by and inadvertently perpetuate traditional hegemonic notions of masculinity. He concludes by articulating the importance of critical praxis and disrupting hegemony, re-imagining opportunities for transformation and resilience.

The Status

This article explores the notion of ‘risk’ and the consequences of both ‘taking risks' or ‘not taking risks' in doing anti-homophobia (or anti-heterosexist) education within broader anti-bias and social justice agendas in early childhood education. Informed primarily by the author's collaborative research and experience as a teacher educator in cultural diversity and social justice issues over the past decade, this discussion focuses on the discursive and material barriers that reinforce negative readings of taking risks, within personal, institutional and societal contexts, in relation to doing anti-homophobia education with children as part of early childhood education curricula. The article explores ‘risk’ as a social construction, operating as a powerful means of societal control in order to maintain the status quo and dominant power relations that underpin societal inequalities, especially those related to the rigid binary heterosexual us/homosexual them. The question of whether early childhood educators can afford to ‘risk’ not doing anti-homophobia education as part of their anti-bias or social justice agendas becomes the pertinent issue explored in this article.
