Consider the following prompts:

• Think about what you learned about classism, racism, gender stereotyping and  sexism, and other”-isms” prevalent in our society. Consider the ways in  which these “–isms” influence people’s well being.
• Now, imagine that you are an early childhood professional who is  experiencing one or more of the “-isms” in your personal life. i.e.,  people are reacting to you with stereotypes and prejudice. How might  such experiences affect your own emotional, cognitive, and physical well  being? How might this impact your work with young children and their  families?

Reflect upon and respond to the prompt below:

• Describe in detail the consequences you might expect for the  children and families with whom you work while you experience specific  “–ism(s)” in your own life. Include specific examples either those you  have and/or are experiencing or ones you would anticipate.
