Cultural Appropriateness Article Reflection

Competency Assess the need for developmentally and culturally appropriate communication practices in and out of an early childhood education setting.
Scenario You are the director of an accredited early childhood program. You understand the importance of communication with your program families and value the perspective of the parents and guardians, supporting the Developmentally Appropriate Practice guideline of establishing reciprocal relationships with families.
Your program's Parent Advisory Board (PAB) agrees with you and has indicated its desire to understand more about ensuring cultural appropriateness across the program's communication efforts. Therefore, the PAB has assigned to you the task of finding a research-based article that addresses cultural appropriateness in early childhood education, and then providing a summary of your selected article as a training piece about this topic.
