This book explores the many ways and opportunities in which men and womenmight work together to highlight creative ways as well as examine the role of menin schools, families, and community engagement. The book helps to broaden thegroup's """"collective identity"""" of those who work with male teachers and caregiversby expanding an understanding of their experiences in order to better ways ofcollaboration. This book serves as a practical guide and resource to challenge thestatus quo in following our own intuition about our life's work as men andwomen in early childhood education. The central theme that is sought here is to remember the general purpose of education:to enlighten for multiple purposes and to ask the resounding questions ofhow do we best achieve this purpose as men and women working together without the confines of gender roles, especially as educators in early childhood and the general educational setting where gender roles are specific tomen and women's perceived ways of caring, nurturing, providing, and educating future generations. | It Takes Team Effort by Lemuel W.
