Stage 1:
You chose a picture book that could be used as part of an anti-bias curriculum (an anti-bias book is one that challenges at least one bias that exists in society).
You added your book to the class shared booklist. Each book must be on the list only once. Check with your lecturer if you are not sure where the list is now.
You can add another book to the list now, but it must be something no-one else has chosen, and it must not be on the list of books we have said you cannot use.

Stage 2:
For the ?rst task, you could choose any good book. This time, you are choosing a book that , as a part of an anti-bias curriculum.
Each person can only choose one book from the list. This part may be done in class - refer to lecturer instructions.
Identify the social justice issue(s) that the book is relevant to.
Identify concepts and ideas from the unit that are relevant to the issue(s).

Stage 3:
Write brie?y about how the book challenges bias. Explain which social justice issue(s) it is relevant to.
Explain why that social justice issue matters, using concepts from the unit, and referencing these concepts.
Explain how the book addresses that issue. Write this up in about 300 words

Use references from the unit and reference appropriately.

Stage 4:
Use the anti-bias book you have chosen as a springboard to develop an invitation to play that can remind people of the book.
Refer to your lecturer for ideas about how the play invitation can connect to the book. It should be designed to remind children of the book, in some way that you can explain.

The invitation to play must allow for independent play by children without adult support. (Remember that the right to play is itself a social justice issue.)

You must physically create and document your invitation to play.

Document your invitation to play and submit to the Drop Box. Your documentation must include text, and images such as photographs you have taken yourself.
