Culture colors our descriptions of children’s behavior. Give an example of what one teacher might see when a child grabs a toy away from another, and then counter it with an interpretation from a different cultural perspective. Why is it important to be objective?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER:
Interpretation might be a child protecting his or her property or territory; another interpretation might be that the child is selfish or uncooperative. Being objective allows teachers to leave their bias out of the evaluation.
